| - | + | The small harbour and marina of Agana (usually and confusingly known by its local name of Marina) is situated in a tiny inlet on the Adriatic coast of [[Croatia]], seven miles W of [[Trogir]] and the same distance due E of [[Rogoznica]]. Originally a small and rather neglected fishing settlement, the town has been given a boost with the construction of the 134-berth [[Marina Agana]] and the conversion of its main claim to fame, the 16th century fortified tower that protects the entrance, into a luxury hotel and restaurant. Cruising visitors must berth in the marina here. Shelter is excellent in all but strong SE winds, which send in an uncomfortable swell. | |

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. | 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.

The small harbour and marina of Agana (usually and confusingly known by its local name of Marina) is situated in a tiny inlet on the Adriatic coast of Croatia, seven miles W of Trogir and the same distance due E of Rogoznica. Originally a small and rather neglected fishing settlement, the town has been given a boost with the construction of the 134-berth Marina Agana and the conversion of its main claim to fame, the 16th century fortified tower that protects the entrance, into a luxury hotel and restaurant. Cruising visitors must berth in the marina here. Shelter is excellent in all but strong SE winds, which send in an uncomfortable swell.
Local 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.
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.
