General
43°31'.7N 15°58".3E Charts BA 2774, SC 5767, MK 15, 16, lmray M25 The village of Rogoznica, built on an island, was founded in the early-16th century. The island is now connected to the mainland by a causeway, which was built during the last century. The harbour and anchorage at Rogoznica are in a sheltered landlocked basin with wooded surroundings. A marina has been built on the mainland shore to the W of the village. Not surprisingly, Rogoznica is popular with visiting yachts.
