IN CROATIA'S BEST SAILING AREA
Right in the middle of the stunningly beautiful Dalmatian Coast, Marina Preko provides the delights of an island, yet has easy access to other anchorages in sheltered waters, providing a wonderful location for ‘island hopping’ amongst the hundreds of islands within the Kornati National Park.
“Preko is set in the heart of the beautiful Dalmatian waters and offers some of the best sailing to be found anywhere in the world. Cruising the Dalmatian coast has to be the experience of a lifetime, with its breathtaking scenery and crystal clear water. To arrive in Marina Preko through the islands from northern or southern routes, or even further afield is a rare treat with an unique view of the entire Zadar canal.
The marina is a ‘must’ to visit, to experience the Dalmationa friendly traditional lifestyle".
WHY MARINA PREKO?
In the heart of the Dalmatian Islands is the small town of Preko, on the
Island of Ugljan, which has been famous for its locally grown olives since
Roman times.
With a Mediterranean feel to the island and bars and restaurants lining the
shore, Preko offers the traditions of Croatia, combined with the simplicity
of the local fresh delicacies which are a delight for the visitor to the
island.
From the top of St Michael’s Mountain above Preko, from the ruins of a 13th
Century Venetian fort, is an unforgettable view of the surrounding
archipelago, which provides some of the best cruising grounds in the world.
The fort itself bears testimony to the history and culture of the area and
provides an illustration of the varied sites nearby to explore.
