Explore: Vis Port (Vis)
General Info
The island of Vis is the most westerly of the islands belonging to Croatia. It is quieter and less developed than most other islands due to it being off-limits to foreigners until 1989.
That said, in recent years the charter fleets and flotillas have started to migrate to Vis, so during the season it can get busy and quite noisy here into the early hours.
The port of Vis is at the head of the bay, Viska Luka and lies on the northeastern part of the island. It is the main ferry port.
Position: 43° 03.60’N, 16° 11.80’E (port)
Clearance
Port of Entry in summer only.
In winter, Split must be used.
The customs quay is marked by a flag and the police officer is just across the road. The Harbour Master’s office is opposite the ferry pier, next to the tourist office.

Docking
This is a port popular with Italian yachts and charter fleets, so early arrival is advised to obtain a berth.
Town Quay:
Berth stern-to on the SW side of the harbor. There are water and electricity on the quay. There are several bars and restaurants here. This quay fills up by early afternoon.
Moorings:
There are mooring buoys to the east of the harbor.
Other Options:
The bay to the NW of town, with a small boatyard at the end, has some moorings that are used by flotillas during the season. It can get noisy here as the charter fleets use both the moorings and anchor on the north side of the bay with lines ashore.
If a quieter berth is preferred, moor to the quay at the village of Kut where the shelter is better in a southwesterly.
There are several anchorages in the outer bay but ensure your anchor penetrates the weed. Anchoring is not permitted in the inner bay.
