Korčula is a town and harbor on the northeastern coast of the island of Korčula. The harbor is divided into the eastern and western part, the ACI marina being in the eastern part. When approaching from Hvar, through the Pelješki Channel the red lighthouse (Fl R 2s 7m 4M) at 42°57,8’ N 17°08,4' E can be used as a way point. The marina comes in sight after rounding that lighthouse and the whole peninsula, which can be identified by the prominent town walls and the cathedral bell tower. The entrance to the marina is marked by a green lighthouse (Fl G 5s 7m 4M) on the southern side of the breakwater. When approaching from the south, the safest way is to round the lighthouses Sestrice (Fl (4) 15s 18m 11M) and Stupe velike (Fl R (sector) 3s 9m 3M) from the north. Then steer towards the green lighthouse in the eastern part of the town harbor (Fl G 3s 7m 2M). During summer storms it is not advisable to stay in the western part of the town harbor.

Palmižana marina on St. Klement Island (Pakleni Islands) is approx. 2.4 NM from Hvar. The bay is mostly well protected from winds and waves. In strong southwestern to western wind a considerable tide may occur in the bay. To the north, in front of the entrance is the rock called Baba, which is visible only during low tide. The rock is marked by a lighthouse (Fl (2) 10s 7m 4M) fixed on a black-red-black stand with two globes. The latitude and longitude of the lighthouse are 43°10,1’ N 16°23,8’ E. Because of the width of the rock one should keep clear of it. The very entrance to the marina is marked by an “ACI” sign board. When approaching from Cape Pelegrin, one should steer towards the Baba rock. The same can also be used as a way point when approaching from the town of Hvar, but on that route one should keep clear of the islet of Gojca. ACI marina Palmižana can be entered from the south as well, through the passage between the islands of Borovac and St. Klement where the sea depth is less than 5m. The latter passage is not lighted.
