Which marinas are there in Trogir?

Three marinas are important for sailing trips in Trogir: two on Čiovo, one on the mainland in Seget Donji. They are only half to one and a half kilometres apart, but differ considerably in size, approach and facilities.

How do the marinas in Trogir differ?

The safest way to tell the three marinas apart is by their full name and by their shore. Two lie on the island of Čiovo opposite the old town, one on the mainland west of the town.

For your arrival, this means: give the taxi driver the full name, i.e. "SCT Marina", "ACI Marina" or "Marina Baotić Seget Donji". Anyone getting out on the wrong shore has a detour ahead with luggage, because channels and bridges lie between Čiovo and the mainland.

Where is SCT Marina Trogir located?

SCT Marina Trogir is located at Cape Čubrijan on Čiovo, diagonally opposite the old town. It is roughly 900 metres as the crow flies to the historic centre, and about half a kilometre to ACI Marina.

The abbreviation stands for the operating company Servisni centar Trogir. Since 2021, the marina has belonged to the Marina 21 Group, which also operates harbours in Novigrad, Pula and Vela Luka. Seven charter companies have their base here; on changeover days it can get correspondingly busy.

Facilities at SCT Marina

Berth holders have access to sanitary facilities with showers, water and electricity connections and Wi-Fi. A small food shop is open daily from 07:00 to 14:00, plus there is a chandlery for boat accessories, a restaurant and a bar (as of October 2026). With travellifts for 100 and 600 tonnes, the boatyard can also lift large yachts out of the water. The marina office is open daily from 07:30 to 21:00 (as of October 2026).

Registration and harbour rules at SCT Marina

The skipper registers the boat on arrival by telephone or on VHF channel 17 and presents the boat's papers, crew list and everyone's passports at reception. Anyone joining later is also reported. The harbour regulations also stipulate (as of October 2026):

• The maximum speed throughout the harbour is 3 knots.
• Heads may not be used in the harbour and holding tanks may not be emptied.
• Swimming, diving, watersports and fishing are prohibited in the harbour basin.
• Night-time quiet hours apply from 22:00 to 08:00; engines and generators may only run when entering or leaving.
• Waste must be separated, only biodegradable cleaning products are permitted on board, and dogs must be kept on a lead.

If you arrive by car, parking at the marina is chargeable. Keep your parking ticket safe: without it, you will be charged for four weeks' parking when you leave.

Where is ACI Marina Trogir?

The ACI Marina Trogir lies on Čiovo directly opposite the old town, separated from it only by a narrow channel. The channel is only about 100 metres wide; you can reach the centre on foot across the bridge.

The marina belongs to the Croatian ACI chain and is open all year round. With 161 berths, 26 of them ashore, it is the smallest of the three. It accepts daily berths for boats up to 30 metres in length. Charter agencies also have their base here.

Approach to ACI Marina

The bridge between the old town and Čiovo does not open and is lower than three metres. Sailing yachts with masts stepped cannot pass underneath and therefore enter from the west, between Čiovo and the Čelica cliff. The green light on Cape Čubrijan, where SCT Marina is also located, serves as a landmark. You should avoid the channel north of the old town: it is only about two metres deep, and ACI advises against passing through.

Facilities at ACI Marina

The marina has toilets and showers, including accessible sanitary facilities, a laundry and free Wi-Fi. There is also a fuel station, a food shop, a restaurant, a cash machine, a fitness room, a workshop, a car park and a 9-tonne crane.

Registration and rules at ACI Marina

The skipper reports arrival by telephone or on VHF channel 17 at least 30 minutes before entering. At reception he presents ship's papers, proof of insurance and sailing licences. A booked day berth is held until 8 pm on the day of arrival; anyone arriving later must notify the marina in advance. Waste, oil and wastewater must be placed in the designated facilities; separate waste containers are available round the clock, and all galley waste must be handed in before departure (as at October 2026).

Where is Marina Baotić in Seget Donji?

Marina Baotić is on the mainland in Seget Donji, in a sheltered bay west of Trogir. It is just under a kilometre from SCT Marina and about a kilometre and a half from the old town as the crow flies.

With 400 berths afloat and ashore, 281 of them fully equipped, Baotić is one of the largest marinas in the area. You can reach the town conveniently by water taxi, which runs to the Trogir waterfront approximately every 20 minutes (as at October 2026).

Facilities at Marina Baotić

The berths have electricity, water and Wi-Fi, and there are sanitary facilities for guests. The fuel station with petrol and diesel has 20 pumps and opens Saturday to Thursday from 8 am to 6 pm, Friday until 8 pm, with shorter hours in the low season. The supermarket opens Monday to Thursday from 8 am to 6 pm, Friday and Saturday until 8 pm and Sunday until noon, also with shorter hours outside the season (as at October 2026). There is also a chandlery, several restaurants and a bar.

Registration and harbour rules at Marina Baotić

The skipper reports arrival by e-mail, telephone or on VHF channel 17 and presents the ship's papers, crew list and everyone's passports at reception. The tourist tax is paid at the harbour office. The marina's rules of conduct also provide (as of October 2026):

• The maximum speed in the harbour is 2 knots; engines may only run when entering or leaving.
• Swimming, fishing and diving are prohibited, as is the use of the boat's heads.
• Night-time quiet hours apply from 22:00 to 08:00, and pets must be kept on a lead.
• Electricity and water remain connected only whilst someone from the crew is on board.

How do you berth in the marinas at Trogir?

You berth at the place assigned to you by the marina on VHF channel 17 or by telephone, and make fast with your own lines. Anchoring is forbidden in the SCT Marina and the Marina Baotić; you do not need a stern anchor there.

In the SCT Marina you make fast according to the marina's mooring system; marineros help, but the skipper remains responsible. In the Marina Baotić boats lie stern-to the pontoon or alongside, with sufficiently strong lines and enough fenders. The staff will assist with departure on request. Mooring chains are forbidden in both marinas. In the ACI Marina you obtain mooring instructions before entering (as at October 2026).

What do you need on your first day in Trogir?

You can get groceries in each of the three marinas; all have their own shops. You will find a doctor and left luggage on the mainland shore opposite the old town.

Parking and luggage

All three marinas have car parks, with a fee at the SCT Marina. The Marina Baotić has 200 spaces without reservation. If your flight lands long before embarkation, you can leave your luggage in the lockers at the bus station or in the left luggage next to the fish market, about 50 metres further towards Seget.

Doctor and pharmacy

In summer Trogir has a clinic for holidaymakers in the health centre (Dom zdravlja), Ulica kardinala Alojzija Stepinca 17, about 500 metres as the crow flies from the ACI Marina (on foot via the old town and both bridges) and a good kilometre from the Marina Baotić. It opens Tuesday to Saturday from 1 pm to 9 pm; on Sunday and Monday the emergency service helps in urgent cases (as at October 2026). For minor matters a pharmacy in the town can help.

How do you get from Split Airport to the marinas in Trogir?

Split Airport lies about five kilometres from Trogir. The quickest route to the marina is by taxi; the bus to Trogir is cheaper.

Promet Split's line 37 connects Split, the airport and Trogir. From the airport the journey takes about ten minutes; during the day buses run every 20 to 30 minutes (as of October 2026). You can find the current airport line timetable on the operator's website.

From the bus station you'll need to walk across the bridge to Čiovo or take a taxi for the last stretch, depending on which marina you're heading for. By car it's eight to twelve minutes from the airport to Marina Baotić, depending on traffic.

What is the sailing weather like in Trogir?

In summer the weather on the central Adriatic is usually stable and clear, with a regular sea breeze during the day. In the colder half of the year, Bora and Jugo blow more frequently and more strongly.

The squally Bora from the northeast is less frequent and weaker in the central Adriatic than in the north, whilst the steady southeast wind Jugo is more common. For an overview of the wind systems see the article on main winds in the Mediterranean.

Which sea weather forecast applies in Trogir?

The forecast for Trogir is issued by the Split Sea Weather Centre, which is part of the Croatian meteorological service DHMZ. You can read it on the weather service's website, also in German, or listen to it on VHF.

The report starts with warnings and the general weather situation, then gives the forecast for wind, sea state and visibility for twelve hours and an outlook for the following twelve hours, divided into northern, central and southern Adriatic. Trogir lies in the central part. Split Radio coastal station broadcasts weather reports and warnings in English and Croatian at 05:45, 12:45, 19:45 and 00:45 UTC on VHF channels 07, 21, 23, 28, 81 and 84, which in summer is two hours and in winter one hour later local time (as at October 2026).

What can you do ashore in Trogir?

The obvious destination is the old town, within walking distance from all three marinas. It lies on a small island between the mainland and Čiovo and has been a UNESCO World Heritage Sitesince 1997. If your flight lands early, it's a good place to spend the time until embarkation.

• Old town and cathedral: The street layout still follows the ancient Greek grid plan. At the centre stands the Cathedral of St Lawrence with the west portal by Master Radovan from 1240, about 400 metres as the crow flies from ACI Marina.
• Kamerlengo Fortress: The Venetian fortress at the western end of the old town was built between 1420 and 1437 and in summer serves as a venue for concerts, theatre and festivals. It's just under 200 metres as the crow flies from ACI Marina.
• Town beaches: Two town beaches lie about ten minutes on foot from the old town, one on Čiovo and one in the Brigi district. Most beaches are in Arbanija on Čiovo. In summer boat services run from Trogir to Čiovo.
• Okrug Gornji: The beach on the west coast of Čiovo lies about two kilometres from the town centre, good for an afternoon's bathing.
• Pantan: The nature reserve about one and a half kilometres east of the centre has a restored mill, a restaurant and a pebble and sand beach.
