Notices to Mariners |
An INFORMAL source of information for changes along the Adriatic coasts of
Montenegro, Croatia, Slovenia and Italy. I shall include official information concerning
lights, etc., as and when I find it, but the main thrust of this page will be for
the recreational anchorer (new mooring buoys, restaurants, problems etc.) You are
invited to participate! Send all details to 'info-at-comoy.com' (replacing '-at-'
with @). Naturally, no responsibility will be accepted for incorrect information,
etc., etc.

Magnamare are publishers of the most recent pilot book for Dalmatia available in English, Italian and German. They also offer a pubication with 1000 waypoints for the area and a photographic pilot. The latter two are in Italian only, but the waypoint book, at least, is self-explanatory. Check out their site for details. |
The STV is one of the oldest and most active sailing clubs of Trieste. Its members are active cruisers locally and far afield (including a trip around the world). |

Novigrad (Cittanova d'Istria) |
The new marina is now operational. The pontoons now open are in the southern area, although it is expected the whole will be ready by 2006. The reception area will include a 5-star hotel, bar, restaurant and congress centre. 'Nuff said! Next to the marina, there is a new fuelling point with three pumps and 100m-long quay for at least six boats at a time. Prices are high.

Island of Brac (Brazza), Bol |
There are five moorings with electricity and water on the eastern side of the inner quay. The central part of the quay has also been refurbished and there will soon be about ten moorings. However, the swell can be offputting. |
|
" |
Hvar (Lesina), northern coast, Vela Stiniva |
A new road now links this bay to the other villages; it is possible to call a taxi, with Hvar town itself just a relatively cheap 10 minutes away. |
|
" |

On the north side of the inlet, shortly before the entrance to the harbour, there is a 150m-long quay. At the centre, depth of 1.5m, at either end, 1.2m. Mooring in tiers. Three metres off the quay, the depth easily exceeds 2m. |

Hvar (Lesina), Sucuraj |
A new wooden quay about 60m long has been erected for boats in transit. Currently, one lies alongside but laid moorings are planned. Water and electricity are already available. On the eastern side of the quay, traffic generated by the ferry can be bothersome. |
|
" |

The fine pine woods have been destroyed by fire, and there is a large fish farm in the south-eastern corner of the bay. |
|
" |

The quay has been repaired and a 3m-high wall built to protect the inner part of the little harbour. |

|
|
Hvar (Lesina), southern coast, Milna |
Lots of ugly new buildings have been built... |
|
|
Korcula (Curzola) |
There's a new restaurant (Konoba Natura). The small pier in front has a depth of 1.5m at the end. 14 August is the local holiday and the noise goes on until dawn - on the plus side, there's plenty of free fried fish and beer at low cost! |
|
27 July 2005 |
Dugi Otok (Isola Lunga) |
30 laid moorings are being fitted in front of the village, with water and electricity. 'Reception' takes the form of a boat. |
|

Vele Srakrane (Canidole grande) |
A pier has been built on the eastern coast just to the south of the little church.
It is about 40m long and 10m broad. 5m depth at the head and 4m on either side. Only
safe in good weather as it is rather exposed. This is the only usable mooring on
the island. |
|
" |
Silba (Selve) |
30 new swinging moorings have been laid in the northern part of the bay, and 7 more
in the southern part. This is now the safest anchorage in the island. The photo shows
the southern part of the bay.![]() |
