MARINA ACI Marina Korčula
ACI Marina Korčula is located in Korčula Town on the NE end of Korčula Island, which lies between the island of Hvar (12 miles to the N) and the smaller island of Lastovo (10 miles S). Korčula Island is separated from the Pelješac Peninsula on the mainland by a mile-wide channel. ACI Marina Korčula is situated immediately to the south of the historic centre of Korčula Town, a beautiful medieval town on a small peninsula surrounded by walls, often referred to as “Little Dubrovnik”. Sheltered by a 200-metre-long breakwater, the marina offers a safe refuge from all winds except very strong SE winds, which cause an unpleasant swell in the marina. ACI Marina Korčula is open all year round. The marina is extremely busy during the summertime, especially in July and August. So, if you want to find an available place to moor, make sure to arrive before 2 p.m. or book a berth in advance.

Caution is required when approaching the marina from the east as there are few shoal patches nearby. In the approach from the south, the safest route is by rounding the Sestrice and Stupe Velike lighthouses from the north.

During summer storms, the western part of the town harbour should be avoided.
