The bay and harbour of Sveti Martin (Saint Martin) lies on the E coast of the island of [[Losinj]], one mile NW of the harbour of [[Veli Losinj]]  and 11 miles S of the Osor canal.  It is a convenient alternative port of call in suitable conditions for a visit to the  main island town of [[Mali Losinj]], just over half a mile NW across a narrow spit of land, when transiting the Osor canal.  Like Veli Losinj and [[Rovenska]], the other ports along the E coast, the harbour becomes untenable with strong N winds.

==Local Weather==
 
-
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.
 
-
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.

There are no dangers in the approach to Sveti Martin.  However, take care in the approach from N to give the headland immediately N of the harbour a good clearance as there are rocks off it.  Shelter in the harbour is good from all directions except NE and E, when it becomes uncomfortable and, if strong, untenable.

The inner harbour is shallow and usually filled with local boats.  The best option for a visiting yacht is to berth stern or bows-to on the short breakwater that encloses the harbour on the N side.  Depths here are 4.0 metres.  You will probably need to use your anchor here, being careful to avoid the permanent moorings.  Alternatively anchor off in the bay to the W of the harbour in 7.0 - 8.0 metres.  The holding is good in sand and mud.

The harbour of Sveti Martin

The bay and harbour of Sveti Martin (Saint Martin) lie on the E coast of the island of Losinj, one mile NW of the harbour of Veli Lošinj and 11 miles S of the Osor canal. It is a convenient alternative port of call in suitable conditions for a visit to the main island town of Mali Lošinj, just over half a mile NW across a narrow spit of land when transiting the Osor canal. Like Veli Lošinj and Rovenska, the other ports along the E coast, the harbour becomes untenable with strong N winds.
