Le Kanal Sveti Anke est l'étroit chenal tortueux qui mène à la ville et au port de Sibenik.
On entre dans le chenal entre Rt Jadrija (au NW), Hrid Rocni (au SE) et otok Sv. Nokola (à l'E).

Un courant constant, de 0,5 à 1,5 nœuds, provenant de l'extérieur circule dans le Kanal Sveti Ante . Après les fortes pluies, la vitesse de ce courant peut atteindre 3 nœuds et causer des dégâts.

Passer à l'W de Hr Rocni. Une bouée avec un feu rouge, à 0,5 NM au S de Rt Jadrija, indique l'extrémité d'un haut-fond (sous moins de 10 m) qui prolonge Rt Jadrija vers le S. Laisser la bouée sur bâbord en arrivant sur l'entrée du Kanal Sv Ante. Ensuite le chenal est simple jusqu'à Sibenik.

De nuit le canal comporte des feux (rouges à Bâbord, verts à Tribord).

Le passage des navires de plus de 50 T est régulé par des signaux à la station de signaux de Rt Jadrija et au fort de Sv Ana à Sibenik. Deux sphères noires ou deux feux verts verticaux indiquent que le chenal est libre. Un cône rouge pointe en bas ou deux feux rouges verticaux signifient qu'il y a un navire dans le chenal.
La vitesse est limitée à 6 nœuds.

A l'E de Rt Jadrija, se trouvent deux baies où l'on peut mouiller. Les criques sur la rive S du canal sont dans une base navale.

Une fois franchi le canal Sv Ante, on arrive à Sibenik.

A l'E de la sortie du canal un haut-fond (Plicina Paklena) déborde sur la rive sur 0,1 NM et est signalé par un feu. Passer au N de ce feu en lui donnant un large tour.

Au SE de Sibenik se trouvent deux baies dont la plus grande, Uvala S. Petar, est interdite.
