Marina Lustica Bay

Marina Lustica Bay is the first newly built marina in the last ten years. Its uniqueness lies in the fact that it will be built on a fully infrastructurally unequipped field. Marina will consist of 176 berths and will allow entrance to vessels of up to 35 meters in length. Marina is being built in the Trašte Gulf. During winter, waves can reach up to 7 meters here, so two breakwaters are being constructed so that marina can get maximum protection.
