The bay of Brbinj from S

The harbor of Brbinj lies on the NE coast of the island of Dugi Otok ten miles off the mainland coast of Croatia and facing the island of Ugljan. Its attractive setting, at the head of a deep bay surrounded by wooded slopes, attracts a modest tourist industry during the summer and it also offers good facilities for visiting yachts on its quay and associated mooring buoys. The harbour and bay offer good shelter in all but E and SE winds.

Just half a mile N across the isthmus on which the village sits is another harbour with further mooring buoys, U. Lucina, which is also where the Brbinj-Zadar ferry berths.
