Full Description & Details
Harbour Omis is located at the mouth of the river Cetina on the Croatian coast, set against a backdrop of imposing mountains and easily identifiable by the broad gorges of the river and fortifications on the rocks. The harbour was ceremonially opened in May 2025 according to the port authority. The facility is situated at the bottom of the bay to the east of the river mouth and is managed by the Split-Dalmatia County Port Authority.
The harbour accommodates 80 berths with a maximum length overall of 30 metres and depths of approximately 4 metres. Vessels can moor alongside or stern-to at the small jetty east of the river mouth, with boulders at the quay making it easy to belay lines. The harbour is exposed to south and west winds, and conditions become extremely windy when the Bora blows. The harbour is privately owned and overnight berthing is restricted, though anchoring is possible just south of the small harbour between two red markers in about 6 metres depth, though this position is unprotected from the south.
Fresh water is available at berths, and the facility provides showers and toilets. Waste disposal is available. Provisions, restaurants, snack bars and bread delivery service are available near the port in the town, which is approximately 0.1 km away. The town offers supermarkets, cash machines and accommodation options including hotels and holiday apartments. A beach is available near the port.
Navigators should be aware that currents in the area are strong and changeable, and the river can rise unexpectedly. There is a marked wreck in the vicinity. When sailing upriver, vessels should stay in the centre of the channel.
How to get there
Approaching from the southeast, vessels should stay at least 0.2 nautical miles from the coast. When approaching from the west, attention must be paid to the rocky advance of Dugi Rat, marked by a south cardinal buoy with light. From this buoy to Omis, the water is very shallow up to 0.3 nautical miles from the coast.
Several yellow buoys mark the 5-metre depth line between Dugi Rat and the river entrance. The approach is best from the south as there is a sandbank to the west where the water depth is slightly more than 1 metre. Vessels should leave the wreck and buoy well to port when approaching the port and sail on the south side of the buoys by the east side of the river mouth.
The harbour can be contacted by phone at +385 989 200 754. The harbour is located in the town of Omis, approximately 0.1 km from the town centre. The address is Put Skalica, HR21310 Omis.
The harbour master's staff speak Croatian.
