Drage
From CruisersWiki
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.
