CROATIA from Above
Sukošan Marina Dalmacija stands out as the largest marina on the Croatian coast, nestled in the natural bay of Sukošan, known as 'Zlatna luka' or Golden Harbour.
Located near Zadar, this marina benefits from its central position on the Adriatic coast, making it an ideal base for exploring the Adriatic islands, particularly the Kornati archipelago.
The Kornati Archipelago, often referred to simply as the Kornati, is one of Croatia's most stunning natural wonders, located in the northern part of Dalmatia.
The archipelago comprises 147 islands, islets, and reefs, stretching over an area of about 69 square kilometers. It's situated between the cities of Zadar and Šibenik, making it accessible yet feeling remote due to its vast, untouched beauty.
Kornati is known for its stark, almost lunar landscapes characterized by white stone, sparse vegetation, and crystal-clear, emerald waters. The islands are predominantly limestone, which contributes to their unique, rugged terrain.

Since 1980, Kornati has been designated as a National Park, which has helped preserve its natural beauty and biodiversity. The park's regulations aim to balance tourism with conservation, ensuring the area remains pristine.
Despite its harsh landscape, Kornati has been inhabited, with remnants of human presence dating back to ancient times. The islands feature dry-stone walls, small churches, and traditional stone houses, reflecting centuries of human adaptation to this challenging environment.

It's conveniently accessible, being just a 10-minute drive from Zadar Airport and an hour from Split Airport, with easy access to Croatia's main A1 motorway.
D-Marin Dalmacija offers berths for over 1,200 yachts, accommodating vessels up to 70 meters in length and with a draft up to 7 meters. It also features a 300-capacity dry dock. The marina is equipped with top-of-the-line facilities, including luxury gastro and hospitality services, reflecting its commitment to high standards.
