MARINA Marina Frapa
Facilities & Weather Forecast

MARINA ACI Marina Skradin ACI Marina Skradin, one of the most beautiful ACI marinas, is located in the small town of Skradin, 8 miles upriver from the city of Šibenik and two miles downstream of the famous Skradinski Buk, the most spectacular of three waterfall cascades in the Krka National Park. Situated in a narrow inlet on the north side of the river Krka, marina Skradin offers a safe shelter from all winds, although strong jugo can cause small waves. The marina is also very popular among owners of wooden boats due to the site’s rare combination of salt and fresh water. ACI Marina Skradin is opened all year round. The busiest months of the year are July and August when the marina is often full.

ACI marina Žut is an indispensable nautical station to all who visit the Kornati. It is s situated in the westernmost part of the harbor of Žut, in the northwest part of the Kornati Archipelago, just outside of the borders of the Kornati National Park. In strong bora winds, it is recommended to berth on the marina’s north pier and at buoys, whereas in strong jugo winds it is much more pleasant to berth on the south pier. Boats with a draft of more than 3 meters can berth anywhere on the south pier or at the very end of the north pier. Approach In strong bura winds it is recommended to berth on the marina’s north pier and at buoys, whereas in strong southerly winds it is much more pleasant to berth on the south pier. Boats with a draft of more than 3 metres can berth anywhere on the south pier or at the very end of the north pier. The island of Žut, including the marina, belongs to the Žut-Sit island group, situated in the northeast of the Kornati Archipelago. When approaching from the west (from Kornati National Park) the shortest route to Žut is through Proversa Vela or Proversa Mala passages. At night it is recommended to sail through the passage of Proversa Mala which is well marked by lighthouses. When approaching from the direction of Zadar, the route passes through the strait of Mali Ždrelac (bridge height 16.5 m). At the entrance to Žut Bay, where the ACI Marina Žut is located, lies the island of Maslinjak. The exact position of the northern cape of Maslinjak, which you can use for navigation, is 43°53.2’ N 15°18.8’ E.

ACI Marina Piškera is located between the islands of Piškera and Panitula Vela, off the northern coast of Panitula Vela, where the ACI flag flies on the island’s highest prominence. The marina is well-protected from the northerly bura wind, but a little less so from the southerly winds. It is open from April 1 through October 31. Once a year, on the last Sunday in July, the people of Sali and other nearby villages flock to this uninhabited island in their boats to attend mass at the Church of the Nativity of Mary. The “Klif” restaurant is part of the marina complex. Approach The island of Piškera or Jadra is part of Kornati National Park. The National Park is usually entered from the north through the Proversa Mala and Proversa Vela straits, or from the south by sailing between Cape Opat and the island of Smokvica. When approaching from Proversa the course to ACI Marina Piškera leads through a series of channels between numerous islands and islets. The most interesting feature of the Kornati Islands are the famous sea cliffs stretching along the western sides of several islands, the most beautiful being those on Mana and Rašip islands. A bit further to the south is the island of Piškera. Just off the western coast of Piškera is the island of Panitula Vela which houses ACI Marina Piškera. In front of the entrance to the marina lie the island of Panitula Mala and Škanji Reefs. The approach from the north or west between Škanji Reefs and the southern cape of Panitula Vela Island is safe, with the sea depth of 7 m. The approach to the marina from the northwest between the islands of Panitula Vela and Piškera is shallow and dangerous due to numerous reefs. The southern cape of Panitula Vela Island (43°45.4’ N 15°21.2’ E) can be used as a landmark. When approaching ACI Marina Piškera from Cape Opat the route is somewhat easier. The southern cape of the islet of Veseljuh (43° 45.8’ N 15°22.4’ E) can be used as a landmark, and behind it is the channel between the islands of Lavsa and Piškera. The marina is sighted immediately after passing through the channel.
