| summary= The small hamlet of [[Drage]] lies at the head of an inlet on the NE side of the island of [[Iž]] in [[Croatia]], just half a mile N of the harbour of [[Veli Iz]].  Most of the shore around the inlet has been quayed and two short jetties built out from the N side. It is possible for a yacht to anchor moor to one of the two jetties or anchor off in the inlet with a line ashore. Shelter here is good in all but E or SE winds.

The small hamlet of Drage lies at the head of an inlet on the NE side of the island of [[Iz]] in [[Croatia]], just half a mile N of the harbour of [[Veli Iz]].  Most of the shore around the inlet has been quayed and two short jetties built out from the N side.

==Local Weather==
+
==Charts==
-
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.
+
''See [[Northern Dalmatia#Charts|Northern Dalmatia]]''.
-
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.
