-	The resort of Kastela sprawls along a six mile stretch of shore on the N side of the Gulf of Kastela in [[Croatia]], a diamond-shaped gulf extending from [[Split]] in the E to [[Trogir]] in the W and enclosed on its S side by the island of Ciovo, immediately S of Trogir.
-	In effect, the resort is a string of towns, each bearing the first name ‘Kastela’ and named after the seven defensive castle built along these shores during the 15th and 16th centuries.  Two miles E of the main settlement of Kastela lies the new, purpose-built  marina of [[Marina Kastela]], which provides 420 berths for yachts up to 25 metres in depths of up to 8.0 metres.	+	==Charts==

	==Weather==		==Weather==
-	Diurnal winds along the coast are mostly moderate during the summer months, predominantly from NW and rarely exceeding force 4/5.  At night, katabatic winds off the mountains are a feature of some of the harbours along the NE Adriatic coast.  During early spring and (especially) autumn conditions can be more unsettled, occasionally accompanied by violent thunderstorms - luckily of short duration - with winds of 30-35 knots or more and vicious, steep seas.  In the winter the sudden, violent N wind off the mountains, the ''bora'', is much to be feared, especially along the Velebitski channel.  It tends to blow less strongly S of Zadar.	+	''See [[Croatia#Weather|Croatia]]''.
-	Equally prevalent in winter - although not uncommon in summer - is the ''scirocco'', a S/SE wind that blows up from North Africa, usually in advance of a depression moving E across the Mediterranean. Unlike the ''bora'', the ''scirocco'' only occasionally exceeds gale force, but is still a phenomenon to be wary of, especially if on a lee coast.	+	==Passages==
