Adriatic Sea Pilot Volume I. Адриатическое море. Часть I

Summary of corrections 2014 Croatian part of the Adriatic with an archipelago of over a thousand islands, its crystal clear sea and favourable climate is a marvellous cruising area, a paradise for boaters. With their increasing interest for this coast, necessary facilities have been built - modern marinas and small harbours - to offer stay, supply and maintenance to small craft and yachts, providing all kinds of information, on weather or cultural and sports events in the area of their interest. The first edition of this Pilot published by the Hydrographic Institute of the Republic of Croatia is complementary with its regularly issued and updated charts and official publications. Besides providing up-to-date information relevant to the safety at sea and all the facts on harbours and marinas, it also offers background information on cultural and historical sights, national parks and other natural attractions on the coast and islands, and in the close interior. We hope that the information contained in this Pilot will prove to be useful to everyone cruising in this area, whose comments and suggestions would be a valuable help in our mission to ensure safe navigation in these waters.
