¹Fuel station in old harbour of Opatija 0.5 miles N of marina

Marina Admiral is situated in the centre (so everything is nearby) of the popular resort of Opatija on the Istrian coast of Croatia.

Opatija itself lies on the west side of the Gulf of Kvarner, six miles W of the large port of Rijeka and 11 miles due N of the island of Cres. The marina is owned by Liburnia Riviera Hotel group and the marina development.

Marina radio contact

Call Marina Admiral on VHF channel 17 prior to entry. Alternatively, telephone or e-mail to enquire about berthing or advance reservations.

Navigation/Approach

There are no dangers in the approach to Opatija. Marina Admiral lies around one mile S of the town of Opatija and the small, old harbour, where the fuel dock is located (visiting yachts will struggle to find a berth in the old harbour since is it full of local moorings). Marina Admiral is entered from NE. Depths in the entrance and in the marina are 4.0 metres. Shelter is good, although entry can be difficult in strong onshore winds.

Berthing

Berthing assistance available. Yachts berth bows or stern-to on either side of the five piers or along the quays. There are laid moorings at all berths.

Personal experience

Post your personal experience and rating of this marina.

  • The marina was really designed (back in 1981) for smaller boats, so there is quite little space between the piers. Some larger boats stay alongside the mole. Perhaps it's worth checking in advance if they are able to let you in -- V_S_S 09:24, 8 October 2014 (BST)
  • The visitors are allowed to use the both (outdoor and indoor) of the pools of the hotel -- didn't try them though: it was too cold for outside -- V_S_S 09:32, 8 October 2014 (BST)
