Murter is a picturesque island in Central Dalmatia, linked to the mainland near Tisno by a movable bridge – so you can reach the island comfortably by car, with no ferry needed. The town of Murter, sharing the island's name, carries on a long tradition of olive growing and wooden boatbuilding, still visible today in small shipyards and olive groves scattered across the island. Murter is also the closest starting point for Kornati National Park – boat excursions depart from here to hundreds of islets and cliffs set in crystal-clear sea. The best-known beach is the sandy-pebbly Slanica bay, a firm favourite with families, though the island also hides many other quiet coves for those who love peace and quiet. The sea around Murter is renowned for its clarity, and locals still uphold a proud fishing tradition. The island is an ideal choice for families, sailors and anyone seeking calm away from the crowds, yet only minutes from Vodice and Šibenik. We offer a wide range of apartments and private accommodation directly from the owners, with no commission. Weather in Murter
