Scedro Island is a small island lying two miles S of the small harbour of [[Zavala]] on the S coast of [[Hvar]] Island in [[Croatia]].  The island used to host a Dominican monastery for over 300 years, but the monks departed in the 18th century and today the only inhabitants are a few holidaymakers and the staff of the restaurants in the bay of the former monastery, U. Manastir, and the inlet of Luka Lovisce half a mile W.  There are no harbours on the island, just the two main anchorages on the N side of the island and a few coves on the SE side which are suitable as anchorages in settled weather.

== 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.

U. Manastir is a ‘dog leg’ inlet which takes its name from the former Dominican monastery at the head of the bay, the ruins of which can still be seen today. There is a tiny harbour at the head of the inlet, which has depths only suitable for small motor boats.  Visiting yachts anchor off in the inlet in depths of 5.0 - 6.0 metres.  The holding is good in sand and weed.  Alternatively, if eating ashore,  a yacht can pick up one of the mooring buoys towards the head of the inlet, which are owned by a restaurant.  Depths at the buoys are 3.5 - 4.0 metres.  Shelter is good in all conditions except strong N or NW winds.

Šćedro Island is a small island lying two miles S of the small harbour of Zavala on the S coast of Hvar Island in Croatia. Šćedro used to host a Dominican monastery for over 300 years, but the monks departed in the 18th century and today the only inhabitants are a few holidaymakers and the staff of the restaurants in the bay of the former monastery, U. Manastir, and the inlet of Luka Lovisce half a mile W.

There are no harbours on the island, just the two main anchorages on its N side and a few coves on its SE side which are suitable, in settled weather, as anchorages.
