ArrivalsThe port authority says the harbour counts up to 2,000 arrivals in a summer. (Lučka uprava SDŽ, text written after summer 2018.)

CrowdingThe inner harbour gets congested with superyachts and local tourist boats. (Noonsite, 2019.)

Taxi boatsLocal boatmen have about ten berths, kept for the link to the Pakleni Islands. Taxi boats also gained more space on the Riva. (Lučka uprava SDŽ, 2018 text.)

At nightOn the town quay, raise the passerelle at night to discourage boarders. (Noonsite, 2019.)

Rules

Entry and crew rules in Croatia

Visas

Schengen, 90 in 180

The Ministry of the Interior says third-country nationals may stay up to 90 days in any 180-day period in the Schengen area. A stay in any Schengen state counts. Nationals of EEA states may stay up to three months with a valid travel document or ID (Croatian National Tourist Board). Check the rules for your passport.

Registration

Crew and guests

Seafarers on a foreign-flag ship who are registered as crew on that ship do not have to register a short stay. Other third-country nationals on a vessel are registered with the police. The mooring provider in a nautical tourism port does this within one day of arrival. Otherwise the guest registers within two days. (Croatian National Tourist Board.) Check the rules for your passport.

Departure

Crew list

Before the vessel leaves Croatia, the master must pass border control if liable and certify the list of crew and passengers at the Harbourmaster's office or branch office. The Split office has a Hvar branch: +385 (0) 21 741 007, VHF 10 and 16 (ACI Marinas). Check the current rules before you leave.
