| summary= The small harbour of '''Žman''' lies at the head of ''U. Žmanšćica'' on the SE coast of the island of [[Dugi Otok]] off the mainland coast of [[Croatia]], four miles NW of the settlement of [[Sali]]. Primarily a fishing port, its inner harbour is crammed with local small craft. However, the breakwater that protects the harbour from SE winds has been quayed and moorings laid for visiting yachts, together with electricity and water points. Shelter in the harbour is good from the prevailing winds but it is completely open E and strong NE or E winds would probably make it untenable.

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.

Chart of Zmanscica harbour

The small harbour of Žman lies at the head of U. Žmanšćica on the SE coast of the island of Dugi Otok off the mainland coast of Croatia, four miles NW of the settlement of Sali.

However, the breakwater that protects the harbour from SE winds has been quayed and moorings laid for visiting yachts, together with electricity and water points.
