Today Kornati national park covers an area of 220 km2 and includes 89 islands, islets and rocks with approximately 238 km of coastline. Despite this relatively large number of islands, the continental part of the park makes less than 1/4 the total area, while the rest is marine ecosystem.

Diving and Snorkeling

Qualified divers are autonomous in that sense in a privileged position: they can enjoy those values for which (among other things) the area is declared a national park. For the other hand, who do not have a diving qualification, we recommend that with the help of masks and snorkels dive in deep blue and clean sea of Kornati, because the surface can be much more memorable to see.
