Full Description & Details
Luka Sveti Martin Marina is a small harbour on the eastern coast of Losinj Island, Croatia, roughly one mile northwest of Veli Losinj harbour and 11 miles south of the Osor Canal. The marina sits just over half a mile southeast of Mali Losinj, which lies across a narrow spit of land. It is a practical stopover for yachts transiting the Osor Canal or visiting Mali Losinj, though the inner harbour is primarily occupied by local boats.
The marina offers shelter from most directions, but NE and E winds can make the harbour uncomfortable and, in strong winds, untenable. The nearest port of entry for international visitors is Mali Losinj.

The nearest port of entry for international visitors is Mali Losinj, which is just over half a mile northwest across a narrow spit of land. No VHF channel is listed for the marina, so contact is typically made by other means or upon arrival.
