Ugljan is only a few miles from Zadar and linked to it by a frequent ferry. The east coast is densely settled, with a string of villages from Preko to Kukljica, while the west coast is almost deserted. Kali is one of the leading fishing centres on the Adriatic, and the fortress of Sveti Mihovil rises above Preko.

The marinas in Preko, Sutomišćica and Kukljica are good starting points for Dugi otok and the Kornati. In the south Ugljan is joined to Pašman by a bridge over the Mali Ždrelac passage: check your mast height before going through, and watch out for the current and the traffic.

For boaters

Marinas in Preko, Sutomišćica and Kukljica, the small town harbours of Kali and Ugljan, anchorages in the bays of the west coast.

Marinas and harbours

Fuel

Anchorages

  • Uvala Muline

    Sheltered from Levant, Jugo, Oštro

    Open to Tramontana, Pulenat, Maestral

    The buoys lie off Muline harbour; the official list gives 7 buoys, another source 20 berths charged per metre. Wind and swell from the north, north-west and west make the bay unsafe, so look for other shelter in a stronger maestral or tramontana. Anchoring on your own anchor is not allowed in the buoy field, between the field and the shore or within 150 m seaward of it.
