There are hundreds of beaches to explore
The majority of locations in Northern Dalmatia are easily accessible. Those that require more work are also worthwhile. Kornati National Park, a remote maritime reserve south of Zadar. Visit to observe dolphins, lizards, ring snakes, and approximately 70 different butterfly species. In the summer, take a boat excursion around the park's reef and sunbathe on its shingly coves and reefs.
Several city beaches around the city, transforming it into an outdoor bathhouse. The Kolovare beach, with its bays and city saltwater pool, is only a few steps from the city center, while the Zadar coastline, famed for its beauty and purity, is not only a popular promenade and bathing location for the youth. The trail from Kolovare goes to the rocky beach of Punta Bajlo, while the route towards Puntamika leads to the pebble and sandy beach of Borik. Borik has an aquapark and beach bars, and the entire Diklo coastline is swimming friendly. Vitrenjak is a beach with a playground for children that is backed by a marina.
The lovely suburban village of Petrane is adorned with several pebble, sandy, and concrete beaches backed by shadow-casting trees, as well as extra amusement amenities. The almost 5-kilometer-long shallow areas of the shoreline are good for youngsters, while the steeper and deeper parts are better suited for individuals seeking more dramatic fun in the clear water.
