We visited this marina about a month before you posted this video, and you review is pretty spot on! The marinero was really nice and welcoming, and helpful with the lines too. The only thing I'd add is despite the modern marina I expected the shower blocks to be much better - but honestly it was ungodly how warm they were when we were there, and totally unventilated. I ended up showering on the boat as that block was absolute inferno. The restaurant was good and it's always nice to eat in sight of the boat, and if I recall correctly the cafe/bar had some nice cocktails as well. Overall a good spot and good to project onto Vis or Lastovo as the next day's trip.
On point with your review Nick. I was there with a cat in late Aug 2021 too and the wind was stronger than what I expected. I was in que to get in because it was quite busy. The entry can seem a bit tight in certain areas, but manageable. The facilities were good especially the restaurant. Yes, need to add more showers. Thanks!
My wife visited the marina in November last year. We heard about this marina and were thinking of bringing the boat here for the winter months. The day she was there it was very windy and the waves were pounding the boats that were moored there. Some of them slamming into the concrete piers and nobody did anything to limit the damage. Since the winter weather in Korcula can be quite stormy I can simply not believe they built this place without a proper break water. So for us no longer a viable option for winter berthing. And like you noticed when you were there, also in November the marina was pretty empty.
Yes that is not good to hear. It is great in a SE/NE but NW really gets in there. Without the breakwall, especially when the ferry ship comes in the rocking and waves inside are crazy.
Of course. We have a few of them. Will keep working on them!

great videos, thank you - we re planning our various holiday islands to visit - really appreciate your efforts to share
I love the blue yacht.
It's basically a marvel of nautical engineering. Hidden away in Vela Luka.

Thanks for that. Yes I didn’t use the showers either. Mind you I never do! Much prefer showering on the yacht!
Well articulated - thanks for the detailed insight and clear views. "Yeah Nick!"
Haha. Thanks Sean!

Thanks for the feedback :)
Looks very fancy and shiny new 👌
It is indeed

Nice! Can you do similar videos for other marinas?
Of course. We have a few of them. Will keep working on them! Check out the others:
