We can go on with our cruise, or rather the way
back to Opatija, by the narrow channel between
Krk and the mainland. Tihi kanal, or Quiet
Channel. We have no idea how it got the name,
because the bora roars here mightily, although
there is not much room for it to kick up very big
waves. But don't let that fool you. The spray that
its wrath raises will have any sailor wandering
what he is to do next. In such conditions, we
have to keep as close to the land as possible, and
the little harbours in the channel itself might
serve as refuge. If the draught of our vessel isn't
more than 2.5 metres, the harbour of Jadranovo
is a safe refuge. It is best to tie up at the stone
Krk
