Biograd na Moru

Biograd na Moru is a town in northern Dalmatia, 28 km (17 mi) to the southeast of Zadar. With about 5.000 inhabitants, it is a local centre, including Sv. Petar na Moru, Turanj, Sveti Filip i Jakov, Pakoštane and Drage on its riviera, as well as the neigboring island of Pašman. There is a large sandy beach, and you can also make ferry trips to the Kornati National Park and other nearby islands. Although small, the town flourished in the 10th and 11th century, when it was the seat of Croatian kings.

The coastline of the Biograd na Moru area is the most indented part of the Adriatic, with countless bays, islands and isles, which makes it an ideal nautical destination. There are about 1000 berths in the local marina, as well as a repair facility and a large parking lot (the capacity is about 700 vehicles). The Kornati National Park is nearby, an extremely beautiful archipelago of more than 150 islands, one of the best nautical destinations in the world. Due to the weather conditions, the most recommended time for sailing is between April and October.
