Premuda Island lies off the mainland coast of [[Croatia]], 12 miles SSE of the much larger island of [[Losinj]] and five miles W of the island of [[Silba]]. A mile SE lies the tiny island of Skarda and, beyond it, [[Ist]] and [[Molat]]. The island offers few facilities, but there are two useful anchorages on the SW coast which offer good shelter in all but strong NW or S winds. There is also a small and shallow harbour (which usually has space for a few yachts even in high season) and mooring buoys just off it for use in settled weather.

==Navigation==
-
Diurnal winds among the islands are mostly moderate during the summer months, predominantly from NW and rarely exceeding force 4/5, although gusting is common in narrow channels between islands and on the lee side of headlands. At night, katabatic winds off the mountains affect some of the islands close to the mainland 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 coast from Rijeka down to Zadar, although its effects can be felt as far south as Split.

{{Green|Add any navigation notes such approaches, dangers etc here. If this section does not apply, remove it.}}
-
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.

Luka Krijal {{Poi coord|44|20.21|N|14|35.65|E|}} is a small settlement on the NW coast of the island, protected from onshore winds by the chain of islets. A small harbour and ferry jetty has been constructed here in recent years. Although the harbour is tiny and relatively shallow, a yacht drawing under 2.0 metres can moor in here if there is space. Depths in the entrance are 4.0 metres, shallowing to 2.0 metres at the head of the harbour. Tie up wherever there is space, using the mooring lines provided. Depths at the quay are reduced in places by ballast, so it is best to go bows-to.  Shelter in the harbour is good, although strong S winds would probably make it very uncomfortable. - {{Chartlet link| lat= 44.336780244385665| lon= 14.594194571546776| zoom= 18|}}

Note that there is a rocky shelf off the S headland of the bay which should be given a good offing. - {{Chartlet link| lat= 44.327655713325285| lon= 14.616966863999206| zoom= 16|}}

Premuda Island lies off the mainland coast of Croatia, 12 miles SSE of the much larger island of Lošinj and five miles W of the island of Silba. A mile SE lies the tiny island of Skarda and, beyond it, Ist and Molat. The island offers few facilities, but there are two useful anchorages on the SW coast which offer good shelter in all but strong NW or S winds. There is also a small and shallow harbour (which usually has space for a few yachts even in high season) and mooring buoys just off it for use in settled weather.

Luka Krijal is a small settlement on the NW coast of the island, protected from onshore winds by the chain of islets. A small harbour and ferry jetty has been constructed here in recent years. Although the harbour is tiny and relatively shallow, a yacht drawing under 2.0 metres can moor in here if there is space. Depths in the entrance are 4.0 metres, shallowing to 2.0 metres at the head of the harbour. Tie up wherever there is space, using the mooring lines provided.

Just over a mile SE of Luka Krijal is the inlet of Uv. Premuda a wooded inlet with three arms - N, E and S - where a yacht can anchor inshore in depths of 6.0 - 8.0 metres, depending on the winds. The most popular anchorage is in the S arm, where the shelter is good in all but strong NW winds. Holding is good in sand and weed. It is also possible to take lines ashore here to limit swinging or to hold a yacht bows on to the swell.
