The harbour of Luka Muna is situated half way along the NE-facing coast of the island of [[Zirje]] in [[Croatia]].  The harbour consists of a small, V-shaped inlet quayed at its head and protected from NW by a breakwater which also acts as the ferry jetty.  Visiting yachts can tie up alongside or, at busy times, stern or bows-to using their anchor on the quay SE of the breakwater or, when a ferry is not due, alongside the ferry jetty.  The inlet is protected in winds from most directions but is open NW.

==Local Weather==

The harbour consists of a small, V-shaped inlet quayed at its head and protected from the NW by a breakwater which also acts as the ferry jetty.
-
Diurnal winds among the islands are mostly moderate during the summer months, predominantly from NW and rarely exceeding force 4/5, although gusting is common in narrow channels between islands and on the lee side of headlands.  At night, katabatic winds off the mountains affect some of the islands close to the mainland 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 coast from Rijeka down to Zadar, although its effects can be felt as far south as Split.
+
-
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.
