| summary= The bay of '''Muline''' is situated on the NW coast of the island of [[Ugljan]], just over a mile from its northernmost tip. On its N side, the bay is sheltered by the island of [[ #Rivanj| Rivanj]] and from the W by the island of [[Sestrunj]]. Its situation makes it a good natural harbour and the remains of a Roman villa and jetty here show that Muline was used as such in antiquity. There is a modern jetty at the settlement of Muline on the SE side of the bay with laid moorings where a visiting yacht can berth or alternatively there are a number of mooring buoys in the bay.  There is also plenty of room to anchor in good depths clear of the buoys.

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.

Muline bay from N

The bay of Muline is situated on the NW coast of the island of Ugljan, just over a mile from its northernmost tip. On its N side, the bay is sheltered by the island of Rivanj and from the W by the island of Sestrunj. Its situation makes it a good natural harbour and the remains of a Roman villa and jetty here show that Muline was used as such in antiquity. There is a modern jetty at the settlement of Muline on the SE side of the bay with laid moorings where a visiting yacht can berth or alternatively there are a number of mooring buoys in the bay. There is also plenty of room to anchor in good depths clear of the buoys. Shelter in the bay is good from all directions, although the anchorage is subject to swell in strong SW winds. The village of Muline ashore has a few facilities, including a restaurant and a small shop.

  2. Mooring buoys In the bay off the town are several mooring buoys in depths of 8.0 - 10.0 metres which can be picked up by visiting yachts. Shelter here is good, though less good in W winds than the jetty.
  3. Anchorages There are two anchorages close to Muline which can be used in winds from the N and the S.

Depending on wind direction, a yacht can anchor towards either the N or S end of Muline bay in depths of 8.0 - 10.0 metres, clear of the mooring buoys and out of the main channel. Holding is moderate to good in sand. The shelter is good in most conditions, but strong SW winds cause a swell.

Note: a current of up to a knot runs through the moorings at times.
