mySea is a an interactive cruising guide for Greece, Croatia and Turkey (Mediterranean coast) as well as an online reservation system for berths. Since July 2018, mySea is selling tickets for the Croatian nature and national parks at a preferential price. This saves the annoying way to the ticket agencies and helps to save money. Boaters can find information on almost all marinas, harbours, anchorages, jetties and buoy fields. Many of these berths can be booked online through the app just with a few clicks. Once the berth is booked (and paid), you have more time to enjoy the sea. While the others are looking already at early afternoon for a mooring, you can enjoy a completely relaxed sailing day, because the berth in a marina, buoy or a restaurant jetty is guaranteed. mySea has information not only on berths, but also on fuel stations, cranes, slipways, nautical repairers, supermarkets, restaurants, beaches, chandlers, yacht charters, doctors, hospitals, tourist attractions, and more. In short: everything of interest for boaters. A large number of detailed POI descriptions, useful insider's tips and thousands of images are also included. mySea is free of charge as our aim is to motivate water sports enthusiasts to participate. Then only by having user contributions, which are edited, can an up-to-date travel guide achieve long-term success. Have fun discovering the locations! Functions: • Find an easy overview about berths prices for marinas, buoy fields or restaurant jetties for your yacht size • Online ticket sales for the Croatian national and nature parks Kornati, Mljet, Lastovo and Telašćica • Book your berth online with few clicks and pay with your credit card. • Search for anchorages, supermarkets, restaurants, fuel stations and more “around you” or in a specific location • Read editorial articles and browse images • Information on other POIs in the surrounding area • Read editorial articles and browse images • Information on other POIs in the surrounding area • Thousands of comments and reviews • Find thousands of contact details such as telephone numbers or email addresses and call directly from the app • Read what others say about a specific POI and add own comments and reviews • Create own lists of favourite places • See what interesting lists other insiders have created • Follow other people • Keep up-to-date: if following other people, their activities will be shown in the activity stream Compatibility: iPhone 4 or newer and iPod Touch.
