Croatia Slovenia and Montenegro - 777 Harbours and Anchorages By: Anna & Rod Bailey Publisher: TBC - Edition: 3rd (2008/9)- Last printed: 2008 777 contains detailed, up-to-date information on more than 1000 ports and anchorages, as well as the technical details which are of most interest to pleasure yachters: the phone numbers of the Marinas and Harbourmaster's offices, the facilities available, mooring facilities, where to buy provisions. Besides the main harbours, there are charts showing solitary, nearly unknown coves; this result was achieved thanks to the patience and precision of the author. This second edition also contains a few hints and coves which were added to the original book, thanks to the contributions by the editors, Piero and Silvia Magnabosco.
