The Adriatic Coast and National Parks Route provides you with the unique experience of sailing and seeing something really special – three masterpieces of nature – Krka National Park, Kornati National Park and Telascica Nature Park. You won’t miss out on historical treasures either, because you will have the opportunity of visiting lovely Primosten and historical Skradin and Trogir. For these reasons we recommend the Adriatic Coast and National Parks Route to all those who enjoy unspoiled nature and historical heritage.
You embark on this route from the sunny city of Split, the first stop being Primosten – a small town which is the very embodiment of “the harmony of Sun, sea and rock”. Just when you think all your expectations have been satisfied in only one day and one place, your next destination on your first day of sailing, Skradin, will soon make you change your mind. Although it has only a few hundred inhabitants, it boasts many historical buildings, such as the lookout point and Ban’s fortress, churches and a well-stocked museum. Skradin is situated on the estuary of the River Krka, which of course adds to its attractions. The Krka, which is also a national park, flows into lakes and waterfalls all the way to Skradin. And just when you start feeling at home in Skradin, the Adriatic Coast and National Parks Route takes you on another adventure for the eyes and spirit - Kornati National Park.
We start our tour of Kornati National Park in the small village of Kornat. Kornat has only 7 fishermen’s houses and is a rarity on the virtually uninhabited Kornati Archipelago, a combination of Dalmatian limestone islands and rocks. It was not without cause that George Bernard Shaw wrote, “On the last day of Creation, God desired to crown His work and thus created Kornati Islands out of tears, stars and breath!”. Of course, you are thinking this must be the pinnacle of your route, but we have another sweet surprise in store for you as you continue to Telascica Nature Park. At the northern end of Dugi Otok you will notice a wide bay which, with its abundant flora and fauna and six islets in the center of the bay, has been recognized for its uniqueness and beauty and declared a Nature Park.
After the peace and quiet of Telascica,the Adriatic Coast and National Parks Route takes you further back into history in the town of Trogir. Trogir boasts a wide variety of cultural and historical buildings skilfully defended by its towers. Visit the little churches, cathedral, palaces and museums. Trogir marks the beginning of your return to reality and the daily bustle of life. Let it be a preamble to returning to the lively and forever young city of Split.
