Hotels in Dugi Otok, Croatia

Dugi Otok is a long island in Croatia's Zadar archipelago, famous for the dramatic cliffs of Telascica Nature Park and Europe's southernmost salt lake, Mir. The Mediterranean climate brings hot summers averaging 80°F (27°C), perfect for swimming at the sandy Sahara Beach, while mild winters around 50°F (10°C) are ideal for hiking the 70-mile trail network without crowds. In spring, you can cycle through olive groves to the Veli Rat lighthouse, and in autumn, kayak along the rugged western coast where dolphins often appear.
