Anchorage· Mljet· Croatia — Dalmatia

Saplunara

42° 41.8′ N · 17° 44.2′ E

The bay at Mljet's south-east tip, backed by pine forest and some of the few sandy beaches in southern Dalmatia. Outside the national park, so no park fee.

Practical

Coordinate is the bay (OSM 'Luka Saplunara'). Konoba Kod Ante runs a buoy field (charged separately; reserve ahead). Anchor in about 4–10 m on sand, clear of the buoys and outside the buoyed swimming zones. Fine in settled summer weather and the NW maestral; open to the south and east, so think twice about staying overnight if jugo or a strong easterly is forecast. Restaurants ashore; dinghy dock in front of Kod Ante.
