Makarska
| |
| |
The town and harbour of Makarska lie on the so-called Makarska Riviera on the Adriatic coast of Croatia, seven miles SE of the harbour of Baška Voda and four miles NW of the small harbour of Tučepi. The island of Brač lies six miles to the W and the steep Biokovo mountain range two miles inland. A popular beach resort, the natural harbour on which Makarska sits has been quayed to create several hundred metres of berthing space, albeit only the eastern part of the harbour has suitable depths for a yacht.
Visiting yachts berth either alongside or stern/bows-to the quays using their anchors. Alternatively, it is possible to anchor in the SE corner of the harbour in depths of 5.0 - 8.0 metres.

The bay opens up once rounding the peninsula and the quays are clearly visible.
