Itinerary
As you arrive by boat, one of the first things you'll notice is the stunning architecture. The houses are perfect examples of traditional Mediterranean construction. There are two main areas of Ošljak - the settlement and the protected forest park. The island's forest primarily consists of pine trees that provide ample shade and protection from the intense summer sun. The best way to explore the island is on foot. There is a well-arranged path that follows the coast of the island, stretching for over 2 kilometers.
The islet Galevac or Školjić is located opposite of Preko. It is a favourite destination for swimming, touring and sightseeing of the old church and the monastery collection. It is only 80 meters away from Preko. The idyllic island with a circumference of 650 meters is one of the smaller islands of the Zadar archipelago. There is a Franciscan monastery from the 15th century on the islet, and in the past a printing plant, a gymnasium and a quarantine operated in the monastery, and the Franciscans were most deserving for the education and culture of Preko and the nearby villages. Within the monastery, there is a monastery library, and the collection of old and rare books is a protected Cultural Good of the Republic of Croatia since 2016.
The mild Mediterranean climate, the azure sea, the rocky and sandy beaches, the numerous nearby islands and islets and the memories of past times make the fertile island Ugljan increasingly desirable for fans of the sea and the islands.
Pass by Sea Organs and Greetings to the Sun, see the old town from the different perspective, absorbing the sea breezes and panoramic views over Zadar

Very good day with Antonio ! Good skeeper
It was a nice trip on a private boat. We saw beautiful views and had a nice trip
Beautiful driver great rest, captain advised us best 😋 If rest is the only way 😁
Laura provided a personalised experience for all of our party. She knew that we wanted to swim so she took us to two fabulous locations - one that was accessible for one of our party with dodgy knees. She was super friendly and the cold drinks and snacks were greatly appreciated. Would not hesitate to recommend this experience. Ages of our party were 21-59.
Laura was a fantastic guide. We anchored in a wonderful bay swimming and snorkeling then sailed to Kali, a nearby fishing village, and had the best tuna and anchovies we've ever eaten at Srdela.
Laura is a very warm and attentive captain! She took us to different spots where the kids loved swimming. The boat was clean and everything was prepared for a relaxing and private afternoon. Thank you so much!
Wonderful and varied tour, very flexible and attentive guide - you can choose whether you want more bathing or more sightseeing! Drinks and crackers and good parking at the port! Thank you for this wonderful day!
Great tour! Laura was the best! She was very friendly,knowledgable and the best sniper. The boat was comfortable and clean. She had drinks available. And the tour locations were beautiful!!! Highly recommended!
It was a great boat trip, excellent weather and crystal clear water, Laura was a great guide and told us a lot about local history and culture and also, she recommended a great place to have lunch at Srdela fish snack bar.
