The beauty of the National Park Kornati Islands can best be seen from air (with a view of its 152 islands out of which 89 belong to National Park Kornati) but also by sailing from one island to another.
This is why the region is very popular amongst yachtsmen who gladly pick it as their summer destination. Inside the park there are twenty bays, where anchoring is permitted. Spending the night in Kornati is an unforgettable experience because the sky is covered in thousand of stars easily seen due to the lack of artificial light in this pristine nature. There are no residences in Kornati but it is possible to rent an old stone house and spend the vacation away from the civilization. Those houses, together with a few lighthouses, remain the only man-made structures on the islands. Be sure to visit the Tureta fort, built in the sixth century as well as the church Gospa od Tarca, where pilgrimage takes place every July.
