The harbour of Marina from the SE

Marina is a settlement with a small harbour and a marina in it. It 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, it has been given a boost with the construction of the 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.

The shelter is excellent in all but strong SE winds, which send in an uncomfortable swell. Cruising visitors must berth in the marina here.

Navigation

The inlet of Marina and Marina Agana is situated at the extreme W end of Zaliv Marina (Marina Bay), the T-shaped bay that extends E as far as Trogir. The bay is entered between the island of Čiovo, at the N side of which lies Trogir, and the mainland. There are no dangers in the approach along Zaliv Marina, although there are shallows inshore in parts and a yacht should keep at least 200 metres off. The inlet of Marina and Marina Agana is clearly identifiable from the 16th-century tower at the entrance.

Berthing

There are no suitable alternative quays or anchorages, so a yacht must berth in the Marina Agana if visiting here.
