Difficulty and wind

from official sources and the base’s experience, checked 4 Nov 2026

Difficulty: moderate to demanding

Days 5 and 6 are longer and partly on open water. With a category B licence and experience, or with a skipper.

Wind

In a jugo (SE), the leg from Rogoznica to Žirje runs into the swell from the open sea; then go back the same way via Šibenik and Murter. The Kremik and Frapa marinas give good shelter from the bora (NE).
