Description

Korculanski Kanal can be entered from the S, between Otok Vis and Otok Korcula, or from the W via Viski Kanal which leads between Otok Vis and Otok Hvar.

This channel connects with Neretvanski Kanal to the E and is part of the main approach to Kardeljevo.
It is easily navigated and vessels may pass on either side of Otok Scedro and Otocic Plocica although the central route is safer for larger vessels.

Caution.—Several submarine cables extend across Korculanski Kanal and Neretvanski Kanal and may best be seen on the chart.
The bora sometimes blows with great strength within the vicinity of Korculanski and Neretvanski Kanals.
Magnetic anomalies have been experienced within Korculanski Kanal and Neretvanski Kanal.
