Anchored in inlet in the north of the town but it’s very tight for space so we moved to U. Plitvine.

U. Plitvine
N42°58.06 E016°42.40
Anchored and tied back in the NE corner. Very good holding. The band of reasonable depths for anchoring isn’t as narrow as it looks on the chart. There’s a pleasant path around the shoreline or up and over the hill to town (20 minute walk), alternatively town is a 15 minute dinghy ride away. The town is not touristy and there are small grocery stores on the front. Fuel from the berth alongside the fuel station on the front. We went into the station to tell them we wanted fuel, they turned on the supply and we served ourselves!

Go first to the Harbour Master (closed for lunch 12-2pm) up a side street behind the garage and opposite a café. The Police office is by a small park but the Harbour Master called them to his office and everything was dealt with in the same place. They were very laid back here – frustratingly so – and it took ages longer to deal with the formalities than it needed to.
