Skradin

Tucked away on the banks of the Krka River, just a short drive from the Adriatic coast, Skradin is a peaceful town steeped in history and surrounded by breathtaking nature. With roots dating back over 2,000 years, it was once an important Roman settlement and later a medieval fortress town. Today, Skradin charms visitors with its narrow streets, stone houses, and a relaxed, welcoming atmosphere. The town’s marina, popular among sailors, offers a serene starting point for exploring both the river and the nearby sea.

What truly sets Skradin apart is its proximity to Krka National Park. From the town’s harbor, regular boats transport visitors to the famous Skradinski Buk waterfalls — one of Croatia’s most iconic natural attractions. Aside from nature, Skradin is known for its gastronomy, particularly traditional dishes such as slow-cooked Skradin risotto, best enjoyed in one of the town’s family-run restaurants or konobas.

Whether you’re drawn by nature, history, or a desire to escape the crowds, Skradin offers a unique and enriching experience. It’s a destination where time slows down, and every moment invites you to connect with the land, the river, and the local way of life.
