Full Description & Details
Klimno Harbour sits on the northern shore of the island of Krk, facing the Kvarner Bay toward the mainland. The small settlement of Klimno is quiet and residential, with the harbour serving mainly local fishing boats and visiting yachts in summer. The setting is sheltered from the prevailing bora and jugo winds by surrounding hills, though the bay itself is open to the northwest.
The seabed is a mix of sand and mud, and the water stays clear enough for anchoring in most conditions. The village has a handful of konobas and a small shop, so provisions are limited but adequate for a short stay. The atmosphere is low-key, with no large-scale tourist development along the waterfront.
How to get there
Approach Klimno Harbour from the northwest, entering the bay between the mainland coast and the island of Krk. The harbour is small, with depths of 2 to 4 metres inside the breakwater, and the entrance is marked by a green light on the outer mole. Keep to the centre of the channel to avoid shallow patches near the shore.
There is no VHF channel assigned; call the harbour master on channel 17 if you need assistance, but most boats simply pick up a mooring or anchor in the bay. The nearest airport is Rijeka on the mainland, about 30 kilometres away, and the town of Krk is 15 kilometres to the southeast by road. Formalities are handled at the harbour office, which is open during summer months.
