Nin sandy beaches!

Nin is the oldest Croatian royal town and a cradle of the croatian culture. Well preserved cultural monuments, especially old-Croatian chapel from 9th and 12th century are unique in Croatia.

It is situated in the shallow lagoon just 18 km north of Zadar, far from traffic and industrial zones. As the sea is shallow and cut into the land, the temperature of the sea is 2-3 degrees higher than in the open sea, which creates higher salinity and aerosol.

The whole area around it is an oasis of shallow and long sandy beaches. Beaches are located in a large, from winds protected bay with a magnificent view on mountains. The water is always clean and warm. This is a popular destination of many tourists. The most attractive is nearby Holiday Village in Zaton, offering all kind of sport activities and entertainments including a large disco club.

The most known is Ninska laguna beach. It is a long sandy beach ideal for families with children and elderly people. Recently laguna has been put on the top of the list of the most beautiful Dalmatian sandy beaches by German auto club ADAC. The beach is also known for areas with medicinal mud.
