Marina Aci Vodice

Vodice is a popular tourist spot, and those sailing in northern Dalmatia often stop here before reaching Sibenik and then continuing up the Krka River.
The waters of the river are navigable to Skradin where another ACI Marina can be found.
From here it is finally possible to reach the Krka Falls on foot along a dirt road or by cab boats; the spectacle of the falls is well worth the long ascent of the freshwater stream (on the river maximum speed 5 knots and keep constantly to the right).
The place is historically famous for its large supply of water; in fact, in the center of Vodice square are two wells considered to be the symbol of the settlement.

Vodice is strategically located for tourists because in addition to being close to Sibenik and Krka Nature Park, it is also not far from the city of Zadar, and the Kornati islands can also be easily reached with daily connections.
In addition, there are numerous hotels, campsites and private accommodation facilities, and there is no shortage of nightlife.
There is a choice of several clubs near the beach, but the best known is the Hacienda, a discotheque with very active programming during the summer.
Vodice also has a very wide tourist offer in terms of food and wine and sports facilities, so it is a recommended place for those who want to spend time visiting the hinterland.
There are many sports that can be practiced, both water sports such as diving or water scooters, and summer sports such as beach volleyball, as well as inland sports such as tennis, soccer, and basketball.
Also easily accessible are wellness services such as message center, sauna and solarium.

The ACI marina in Vodice is one of the few to have received the European blue flag, so the area is clean and the local inhabitants’ respect for the environment is high.
In addition, the marina is in a location sheltered from winds and is protected by two(unlit) breakwaters.
Landing is quite easy, the town is located in a very wide bay, and the marina is open all year round, and at night it is well signaled by a flashing beacon (5 seconds).
By day, however, a very tall hotel structure is easily seen from the sea.
For entrance to the ports one can refer northward to a monument that is shaped like a torch, special attention is required cuasa a shoal indicated with the isolated black red-banded danger sign, one can enter by staying clear of the shoal on either side but the southwest side, entering on the right, is preferable because it is wider and safer.
The ACI marina is large and well equipped.
All services available including also technical assistance, marine store, newly renovated shower rooms, 25 ton crane, 40 ton travel lift.
Fuel station is located outside the ACI marina (depth of 3 mt, difficulty mooring in southerly winds).
