The harbour of Malinska (or, to give it its full name Malinska-Dubasnica) is situated on the NW coast of the island of Krk in Croatia, around 18 miles by sea NW of the island’s main harbour of Krk Town. The town has a small commercial harbour with a pier and quays where a yacht can usually find space and a long pontoon owned by a leisure development where a yacht may be able to moor. Malinksa lies at the E side of a large bay open to NW and W and would not be a suitable port of call in strong winds from this direction.

The town is easily identified in the approach from N the buildings of the town and the long, sandy spit that fronts a long breakwater providing the harbour with some protection from N. A red buoy marks the end of the breakwater. In the approach from W, be sure not to confuse Malinska harbour with the small harbour a mile SW, which is not suitable for a yacht. Once round the breakwater, if heading for the pier and quay at the SW end of the harbour, avoid the shallow patch 50 metres off the quay which is marked with a black pillar mark.
