Board a sleek speedboat in Zadar and reach Kornati's most dramatic islands in a fraction of the time of conventional boats. You design the itinerary — your expert captain makes it happen, from cliff dives to hidden beach landings.
What to expect
The speedboat skims across the open Adriatic from Zadar's old town waterfront, reaching the outer Kornati islands in well under an hour — islands that most day-trippers never see. Your captain anchors beneath Mana Island's vertiginous WWII-era film-set ruins for a cliff-side swim, then races to a secluded Smokvica Bay cove for lunch and a long afternoon drift. The pace is entirely yours: snorkel a reef, explore the Fortress of Tureta on Kornat Island, or simply anchor in total silence with a glass of local prošek. The return at speed, sea spray and pink dusk sky, is exhilarating.
Good to know
Speedboat tours are weather-dependent; operators will advise on rescheduling. Zadar is a common cruise port of call — confirm tender/pier arrangements. Book the fully private option for the most flexible, luxury-grade experience.
