| |
The harbour of Jezera and its associated marina, Marina Jezera, lies on the SE coast of the island of Murter in Croatia, just over a mile S of the road bridge at Tisno connecting the island to the mainland of Croatia and a similar distance from the mainland itself. Situated in a well-protected natural inlet and sheltered from E winds by the small islet of Skoljic [[Jezera#Skoljic|Skoljic]] 43°47.030'N, 015°39.193'E just off the harbour entrance, Jezera is a former fishing village and still has an active fishing fleet. Since the construction of an ACI-operated 225 berth marina here, however, the harbour is now shared with the cruising community. The town still retains most of its mediaeval street layout and is a picturesque and inviting place to explore.
