| summary=The charming hamlet of [[Mali Ston]] lies near the SE end of the '''Neretvanski Kanal''', the channel between the mainland and the [[Pelješac|Pelješac Peninsula]]  on the Adriatic coast of [[Croatia]]. Together with its sister hamlet of [[Ston]], the two settlements straddle the narrowest part of the peninsula, just over a kilometer apart, although Ston can only be reached by sea from Mali Ston via the Stonski Kanal on the other side of the peninsula, a trip of some 50 miles. The two hamlets were linked by over five kilometers of defensive walls in the 14th century, parts of which survive today, to protect its vital salt industry. In spite of attempts on the part of the Republic of Dubrovnik and later by French Napoleonic forces during their occupation to join the two via a canal, the project was never completed and the two remain separated by a 15-minute walk.

Mali Ston from the NW

The charming hamlet of Mali Ston lies near the SE end of the Neretvanski Kanal, the channel between the mainland and the Pelješac Peninsula on the Adriatic coast of Croatia. Together with its sister hamlet of Ston, the two settlements straddle the narrowest part of the peninsula, just over a kilometer apart, although Ston can only be reached by sea from Mali Ston via the Stonski Kanal on the other side of the peninsula, a trip of some 50 miles. The two hamlets were linked by over five kilometers of defensive walls in the 14th century, parts of which survive today, to protect its vital salt industry. In spite of attempts on the part of the Republic of Dubrovnik and later by French Napoleonic forces during their occupation to join the two via a canal, the project was never completed and the two remain separated by a 15-minute walk.

Mali Ston has a shallow harbour unsuitable for most yachts but there is a well-sheltered anchorage off the hamlet in 4.0 metres.

The channel up to Mali Ston is fringed by shallows but they are fortunately well marked and present few dangers as long as the skipper keeps a close eye on the depth sounder.

However, least depths are only 3.0 metres or less in parts, so it is unsuitable for deep draft yachts. The channel is also surrounded in parts by oyster and mussel beds, so care is needed.

Warning: The sea level is prone to sudden changes up to 2 m above normal.

The small harbour, protected by a detached breakwater, has depths of less than 2.0 metres and is not suitable for deep yachts.

Shallow draft yachts have been known to lie alongside the quay immediately W of the round tower on the waterfront, but depths of only 2.0 - 3.0 metres here are reportedly reduced still further by rubble.
