Nautic Tourism - Marinas

 

Berth Fees in Marinas

Fees are charged in Croatian marinas for yacht berths and other services. They are usually fixed and published in the autumn for the following year.

Mooring Fees in Public Harbours

On public piers in harbours under municipal authority, the local authorities have the right to charge mooring fees. The amount of the fee depends on the size of the yacht and the length of pier it occupies, which means that yachts mooring alongside the pier will pay more than those mooring stern of bows to. When berthing "in a pack" (several yachts mooring alongside each other), the mooring fee is charged for every yacht. The amount of the fee is determined by the local authority can vary from one harbour to another.

Berth Fees in Bays

In some areas, the local authorities charge mooring fees for yachts moored in bays under their authority. In return, garbage is collected and, in some places, groceries delivered. Law will in future regulate the extent to which fees can be charged without any service being provided. Persons collecting mooring fees must identify themselves by producing a printed receipt.

Buying Food

Shopping for food presents no problems along the Croatian coast or on the islands. All marinas and harbour have well-supplied supermarkets. However, during prolonged spells of bad weather there can be a shortage of fresh vegetables and bread on small islands, which do not have a regular ferry service. Food prices are comparable to those in Europe. Restaurants can be more expensive on small islands.

Fuel

Fuel is easily available both on roads and in harbours. All types of petrol, including unleaded petrol, and diesel are available; however, unleaded petrol pumps and less common on piers. Petrol stations are temporarily closed for safety reasons when they are being supplied with petrol from tankers.

 Water and Electricity in Marinas

All Croatian marinas and some harbours have water and electricity hook-ups on the pontoon-piers. Water: water connections are usually 1 inch in diameter, 3 inch diameter connections are much less common. Because of possible water shortages in the summer months, most Croatian marinas require yachts to use hoses with taps.

Electricity: In Croatia the current is 220 V AC. In marinas and public harbours (as well as camping grounds), three-pin "Euro-plugs" are used. In some marinas (Punat, Kremik) a number of pillars have 'conventional' safety sockets.

Naturism

Croatia has a long tradition of naturist tourism, creating an image of an ideal naturist destination by organisation and construction of adequate specialised buildings and facilities.

Croatian naturist centres are praised for their protection of the environment and some naturist destinations such as "Valalta" Rovinj, "Koversada" Vrsar, "Ulika" Cervar Porat are adorned with the prestigious international symbol of a protected environment - the "Blue Flag".

Naturist centres accept all guests with the International Naturist Federation (INF) member's card and all families that follow naturist rules. It should be stated that single men without the International Naturist Federation member's card, as a rule are not admitted.

Besides naturist centres and camps with parts assigned to naturists, there are many beaches on the Adriatic that are not especially marked. Make note that although naturism is tolerated, don't be the first naturists on a beach you're not familiar with, especially if it is in the vicinity of a town or village!

Osijek-Baranja County

Location: at the north-east of Croatia. At the total hunting area of 347,685 ha, there are 83 joint hunting-grounds. Hunting in this region has a rich tradition, notably big game hunting. It offers top trophy game in open hunting-grounds (deer, wild boar, roe-buck) and in fenced hunting-grounds (fallow deer, mouflon). Small game hunting includes pheasant, snipe, quail, partridge, wild duck, wild goose and rabbit.  

Lika-Senj County

By its richness and diversity, the Lika-Senj County provides one of the leading offers in hunting tourism by hunting societies and private hunting-ground lease-holders. Mountain hunting-grounds (North Velebit, Crno jezero, Brinje) are inhabited by big brown bears. On the south side of Velebit, by the sea, in St. George and Jablanac hunting-grounds, it is possible to go mouflon, chamois and fallow deer hunting. In almost all hunting-grounds, the most represented game is wild boar. Inaccessible terrain and good habitats enabled the development of top trophy examples of this game. Among small game, hunting-grounds of the Lika-Senj County offer Greek partridge, snipe, quail, pheasant and rabbit hunting.  

Primorje-Gorski Kotar County

The Primorje-Gorski Kotar County at large is a huge hunting-ground, divided to three natural entities - mountainous, maritime and island entity. Numerous game species, like brown bear, lynx, protected wolf and wood grouse, timid doe, deer, wild boar and chamois, the beauty of the rugged ground, live here in primeval peace almost by laws of nature. Located by the Adriatic coast, from the Bay of Plomin to foothills of Vinodol, are coastal hunting-grounds. The most represented animal is doe, followed by wild boar and red deer. The most attractive game in this hunting area is snipe. The charm of hunting here lies in numerosity of rabbits, Greek partridges and pheasants. There are hunting-grounds on islands of Krk, Rab and on the group of islands of Cres and Losinj. Only here will you find Aksis deer, but it is also possible to hunt fallow deer, doe and mouflon.
