Kornatiimage:Kornati.jpg|thumb|300px|Kornati Islands The Croatian '''Kornati''' archipelago is located in central Dalmatia, south of Zadar. With 150 islands in a sea area of about 320 km² ''Kornati'' are the densest archipelago in the Mediterranean Sea (Skračiċ, 2003). Southern part of the archipelago, which roughly corresponds to the part of the archipelago called ''Donji Kurnat'' (Lower Kurnat) was declared national park in 1980. Kornat, with the area of 32,525,315 m² the biggest of the islands, comprises two-thirds of the park's land area. Although the island is 25.2 km long, it is not wider than about 2.5 km. There are no permanent settlements in Kornati. Simple houses in well-protected coves such as ''Vruje'', ''Kravjačica'', ''Lavsa'' and others are used by land owners, mostly from the island of Murter as a temporary shelter. image:Fishermen_in_Lavsa,_Kornati.jpg|thumb|300px|Fishermen in Lavsa ==References== * {{Book reference | Author=Skračiċ, Vladimir | Title=Kornat Islands | Publisher=Zadar: Forum | Year=2003 | ID=ISBN 953-179-600-9}} ==External links== * [http://www.archaeology.net/kornati Source of information on Kornati NP] * [http://www.kornati.hr/ Kornati national park] {{Croatia-geo-stub}} Category:Islands of Croatia Category:National parks of Croatia First page | Prev | Next | Last page |
