Gaj-floating gas station (Ist) Opčina Zadar - Ist - Croatia Town_pier in Ist, Zadar County

Gaj-floating gas station is a town pier in Ist, Opčina Zadar, Zadar County, Croatia, located at coordinates 44°16'47'' N, 14°45'24'' E. This unique floating fuel station on the small, remote island of Ist provides essential refueling services, though with seasonal variations in availability and delivery methods. Berthing and Facilities: Gas station available. OUTSIDE THE SUMMER SEASON there is NO TANKER - fuel delivery boat not operating in off-season. However, there IS FUEL from the EXISTING TANKER at the FRIENDLY GAS STATION ATTENDANT in the OFFICE CONTAINER. FILLING THEN IN CANISTERS - manual fuel transfer via jerry cans rather than direct pump service outside summer season. This informal but practical arrangement ensures year-round fuel availability despite seasonal operational changes. Ist Island: Ist is one of Croatia's smallest permanently inhabited islands, a peaceful, unspoiled gem in the Zadar archipelago. The island maintains traditional Dalmatian character with minimal tourist development. The floating gas station serves as a vital service point for yachts cruising this beautiful but remote area. The island offers tranquil anchorages, crystal-clear waters, and authentic Croatian island atmosphere. The friendly service and practical approach (canisters in off-season) exemplifies the helpful, informal spirit of smaller Croatian islands. While not as convenient as summer direct pumping, the canister system ensures fuel is available year-round for yachts navigating these waters. VHF channel not specified. Note: In summer, expect normal tanker/pump service; outside summer, arrange canister filling with the attendant at the office container. The small scale and personal service create a unique, authentic refueling experience.
