Marina Pirovac · short evening hop · 0–4 nm

Pirovac → Šibenik channel → Skradin · ~18 nm · ~3.5 hrs
Motor-sail up the green Krka river to Skradin’s pretty marina, then take the national-park boat up to the waterfalls, boardwalks, mill museums and quiet swim spots above the cascades. Riverside dinner in town.
Skradin → St Anthony channel → Šibenik · ~12 nm · ~2.5 hrs
Drift back down the river and through the dramatic St Anthony channel into Šibenik. Moor on the quay and walk straight up to the UNESCO Cathedral of St James, the Barone and St Nicholas fortresses. Gelato on the waterfront for the crew.
Šibenik → Zlarin → Prvić Luka · ~10 nm · ~2 hrs
Two car-free islands a short hop apart. Swim off Zlarin, the old coral-divers’ island, then moor at sleepy Prvić Luka, the Faust Vrančić museum, a gelato, and a slow konoba dinner with no engines anywhere.
Prvić → Kaprije swim → Pirovac · ~16 nm · ~3 hrs
One last island morning at Kaprije, clear water, a fig-tree konoba, before the easy reach home. Back at the base by mid-afternoon, with time to rinse off and pack at your own pace.
The handful of moments guests bring up again and again on this route.
Anchor up the river and swim beneath the falls in the morning quiet.
Two UNESCO fortresses and the cathedral, all walkable from the quay.
