Ploče Port of Entry
| |
| |
Ploče is a large commercial port in the Neretvanski Kanal, the channel between the mainland and the Peljesac Peninsula on the Adriatic coast of Croatia. It is the principal outlet to the sea for otherwise virtually landlocked Bosnia-Herzegovina. The harbour is situated two miles NW of the entrance to the Neretva River, the largest river in the Adriatic. Although shelter in the port is good, the surroundings are not very attractive, with no concession to the needs of visiting yachts.
The harbour is best regarded as a port of refuge if caught in adverse conditions along this coast.

In the approach from the N there are no obvious dangers, although care is needed when rounding the headland of Rt Visnjice [[Ploče#Rt Visnjice|Rt Visnjice]] 43°02.338'N, 017°24.977'E on the W side of the entrance to Ploče as large commercial vessels exit the channel at speed.
In the approach from the S, it is important to give a good clearance to the shallows extending nearly a mile off the mouth of the Neretva River two miles SW of Ploce. The entrance is between the tall headland of Rt Visnjice, which has a light structure on it, and a green starboard buoy half a mile due E. After half a mile the channel curves round to the E and the basin of the commercial harbour opens up a further half mile to the NE.
Entrance

Most of the other quays around the harbour are occupied either by commercial vessels or by small craft moorings. Shelter here is good in all winds, although the bora can blow violently in the harbour.Marinas & Yacht Clubs
