Kornati - National Park
"On the last day of the Creation God desired to crown his work, and thus created
the Kornati Islands out of tears, stars and breath" - wrote George Bernard Shaw.
Beautiful nature, a network of countless islands and islets the magnificent sea - all
this makes the Kornati Islands a true promised land for all nature lovers. The islands
are also a priceless pleasure to all those who love bathing in the crystal-clear sea,
and those who appreciate peace and quietness.
Because of its exceptional landscape beauty, diversity of the coastline and
especially because of the marine ecosystem, greater part of the Kornati maritime
zone has been declared a national park in 1980.
The possibilities of exploring the Kornati islands are immense: take a swim in the

school in Croatia. The nearby marinas and the clear and blue sea present a

sloped and separated. To the west of the island is the Komiza bay and to the north
is the Vis harbor.
In 1944 the island was declared a military zone, therefore it was inaccessible to all
foreigners until 1989. But this isolation, however difficult it was for the inhabitants of
the island of Vis, placed Vis among the favourite destinations of the entire
Mediterranean.
