The bay and tiny harbour of Trstenik lie on the S coast of the Peljesac Peninsula on the Adriatic coast of [[Croatia]], three miles NW of [[Zuljana]], 10 miles due E of the island of [[Korcula]] and nine miles N of the island of [[Mljet]].  A quiet and unspoilt settlement, the hamlet is surrounded by vineyards and produces a very drinkable local wine.  Visiting yachts can either tie up on the inside of the short jetty at the W side of the bay, where there are depths of 8.0 - 10.0 metres, or anchor off in the bay.  Shelter is good in the prevailing winds, but the bay is completely open S.  It is, moreover, not a good place to be in a very strong ''bora'' (which fortunately only usually occurs in winter).

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.

Trstenik from the NE

The bay and tiny harbour of Trstenik lie on the S coast of the Pelješac Peninsula on the Adriatic coast of Croatia, three miles NW of Žuljana, 10 miles due E of the island of Korčula and nine miles N of the island of Mljet. A quiet and unspoilt settlement, the hamlet is surrounded by vineyards and produces a very drinkable local wine.

Visiting yachts can either tie up on the inside of the short jetty at the W side of the bay, where there are depths of 8.0 - 10.0 metres, or anchor off in the bay. The shelter is good in the prevailing winds, but the bay is completely open to the S. It is, moreover, not a good place to be in a very strong bora (which fortunately only usually occurs in winter).
