Trogir is an old town on a small island between the mainland and Čiovo. Two marinas face it across a narrow channel with a strong current, and most boats come and go from the west.

The ACI marina on Čiovo, across the channel from the old town. ACI Marina Trogir has 161 sea berths. (From the operator, )
Trogir is exposed to westerlies, the jugo and the bura, and a current of up to 3 knots runs west through the channel. Our cautious answer: expect wind and current on the berths in Trogir, and don't anchor in the channel. Our skipper reviewer hasn't checked this yet. (Third-party source, )

ACI Marina Trogir in full
A marina on the mainland side of the channel. SCT Marina Trogir, the Marina 21 brand of Servisni centar Trogir d.o.o., has 232 sea berths and answers on VHF channel 17. Its reception is open 7.30 am to 9 pm, with a restaurant, a nautical shop, a grocery and a laundry. (From the operator, )
Marina Trogir says it sits in a bay protected from winds and storms. (From the operator, ) The Trogir channel has wind and a cross-current in a bura, a jugo and westerlies. Our cautious answer: expect wind and a cross-current in the channel in a bura, a jugo or westerlies. Our skipper reviewer hasn't checked this yet. (Third-party source, )

The quay beside the old town, with visitor berths along the Riva. The harbourmaster's office is on the Riva at Obala bana Berislavića 19, phone +385 21 881 508, weekdays 8 am to 1 pm. (Official source, )
A current of up to 3 knots runs west past the Trogir quay, and the town is exposed to westerlies. Our cautious answer: allow for the current when you come alongside, and expect movement in a strong maestral. Our skipper reviewer hasn't checked this yet. (Third-party source, )

Paying, fuel, and Trogir Banj on Čiovo
In Seget Donji on the mainland side of Trogir bay, with the area's own fuel station. Marina Baotić, in Seget Donji 2 km west of Trogir, answers on VHF channel 17 day and night. It has a fuel station for petrol and diesel, a nautical shop, a supermarket and a restaurant. (From the operator, )
Marina Baotić says its 280 sea berths are protected by a 300 m concrete breakwater. (From the operator, )
€95 a day, 12 m boat, plus power and water (From the operator, )
In the village of Marina, west of Trogir by sea, and the base of Sunsail and The Moorings. About 6 NM from Trogir to Marina Agana by sea. (Measured by us, ) Marina Agana, in the village of Marina, has 134 berths, a laundrette and a bistro, and its reception answers on VHF channel 17 all year. Shops are 200 m away. (From the operator, ) 7 m at the entrance, down to 1.5 m at pier F. (From the operator, )
Marina Agana is sheltered from waves in all winds. The bura and north-westerlies blow hard along the bay, a jugo brings a light chop, and a strong jugo can raise the sea over the south pier. Our cautious answer: double your lines in a bura or a strong maestral, and watch for sudden summer thunderstorms from the west. Our skipper reviewer hasn't checked this yet. (Third-party source, )

Check-out and catamarans
A deep bay on the coast west of Marina, where the port authority charges for anchoring. About 6.5 NM from Trogir to Vinišće bay. (Measured by us, ) Vinišće has 57 m of quay, shops and a post office. The nearest clinic and cash machine are in Marina, and repairs too. (Official source, )
Vinišće bay is exposed to the jugo and easterly winds. Only the inside of the village pier is sheltered from every wind. Our cautious answer: treat the anchorage as open to the jugo and leave if one is forecast, and give Rt Artatur a wide berth. Our skipper reviewer hasn't checked this yet. (Third-party source, )

Come and go from the west. Two checked sources disagree on whether the bridges open, so don't plan on it. The old town sits on a small island between the mainland and Čiovo, and the channel on its south side runs past both marinas with a strong current.
Our answer: Don't plan on a bridge opening. Come in from the west, past Cape Čubrijan, and from Kaštela bay go round Čiovo. (Sources disagree, )
A movable bridge crosses the narrowest part of the channel, with a 25 m opening. A second movable bridge, mainland to Čiovo, lies 0.6 NM east, 25 m wide and 4.8 m high. The bridges open on request: Hydrographic Institute of the Republic of Croatia: Notices to Mariners 4/2021, correction 27 (Official source, )
The bridge from the old town to Čiovo doesn't open, and takes boats up to 2.6 m high. ACI's approach notes give it 2.8 m clearance, with 4.5 m of water under it: ACI Marina Trogir: its page on aci-marinas.com (From the operator, )

The airport is 6 km away, so Trogir is the quickest start of any Split-area base. Each charter company sets its own times. How the charter bases compare

Each charter marina in Trogir bay lists a food shop on site. Check which marina your charter uses, and ask your base about opening times and any delivery arrangements.

From sailors after a night here. They tell us what to check next, and don't count in the checks above.
On Saturday 23 Aug 2025 the base kept pushing back the time their boat would be ready until it was past 5 pm, so they left the next morning at 6. At check-out a diver checked the hull as part of the damage inspection.
Trogir
Bringing a charter boat back to the marina in Trogir, one sailor saw the base empty the holding tanks to check the pipes for clogging.
