MARINA ACI Marina Vrboska
Marina Vrboska is located in Vrboska, the smallest town on the island of Hvar, on the N coast of the central part of the Hvar Island, a mile NW from Jelsa. Situated in a narrow, meandering inlet of Vrboska, the marina offers a safe shelter in all wind conditions except strong SE wind, which can create a dangerous surge in the harbour. There is an island in the middle of the inlet and numerous small bridges, which make the setting extremely attractive, with an almost Venetian feel to it. Marina is open all year round. It gets busy during the months of July and August.
Berths
The marina has 119 wet berths and 17 dry berths, all of which are equipped with water and electricity. It can accommodate boats up to 20 metres in length. Water depth in the marina ranges from 2 to 5 metres.
