 Njivice harbour |
The harbour of Njivice is situated on the NW coast of the island of Krk in Croatia, around 21 miles by sea N of the island’s main harbour of Krk Town. A former fishing village, the town has a small and relatively shallow harbour with a pier alongside which a yacht can usually find space. The harbour is exposed to winds from W and NW and would not be safe in strong winds from that direction.

Anchorages
It may be possible to drop anchor temporarily in the harbour approaches if going ashore for supplies, but Njivice does not offer a suitable overnight anchorage unless the weather is very settled. A better anchorage (but only in settled weather) is the bay about half a mile NE of the harbour, where depths are around 10 metres and the holding is good in mud.
