The small harbour of Drace from WSW

The small harbour of Drače lies on the W side of the Neretvanski Kanal, the channel between the mainland and the Pelješac Peninsula on the Adriatic coast of Croatia, around 14 miles NW of the historic settlement of Mali Ston at the head of the channel. Drače is a popular holiday spot with a large campsite and the five-mile-long bay in which it sits is dotted with numerous small islets.

While most of the harbour is shallow, a yacht can tie up alongside the outer arm of the breakwater, where there are depths of around 4.0 metres. The shelter is good in all conditions except strong SE winds, which send in a significant surge.
