Description

Premuda is located northwest of Otok Skarda which it is separated by a channel about 0.9 m wide (Premuda Vrata). The tips of each side of the channel are overwhelmed shoals and should not be approached too closely.

The coast is home to 2 W moorings and a small port and there is a pier for the ferry in Uvala Loza E. By Bora  the Ferry dock is at Luka Krijal, the other side of the island.

The village of Premuda is on a hillside between Luka and Krijal Uvala Loza.

Premuda is famous for its diving spots. Siroka bay, on the SW coast of Premuda, is a famous point of diving. The famous cave, named "Cathedral" is in this bay.

Premuda se situe au NW de Otok Skarda dont elle est séparée par un chenal d'environ 0,9 M de large (Premuda Vrata). Les pointes de chaque côté du chenal sont débordées de hauts-fonds et ne doivent pas être approchées de trop près.
La côte W abrite 2 mouillages et un petit port et il y a un quai pour le Ferry dans Uvala Loza sur la côte E.
Par Bora le Ferry accoste au quai de Luka Krijal de l'autre côté de l'île.

Le village de Premuda est à flanc de colline entre Luka Krijal et Uvala Loza.

Premuda est réputée pour ses spots de plongée. La baie de Siroka, sur la côte SW de Premuda, est un fameux spot de plongée. La célèbre grotte nommée "Cathédrale" se trouve dans cette baie.

Parmi les nombreuses épaves de Premuda il y a celle de Szent Istvan située à quelques miles au large. Ce fameux bateau appartenait à la flotte de Teggethoff de la marine austro-hongroise. La flotte de Teggethoff était composée de 4 navires: Sz Istvan, Prinz Eugen, Teggethoff et Virbus Unitis. Le navire Szent Istvan est le seul d'entre eux qui n'ait pas coulé.

Les îlots Lutrosnjak et Kamenjak sont situées devant sa côte nord-ouest.
