April 19, 2026, View of Kastelina Fortress

This lighthouse is considered one of the most beautiful on the Adriatic Sea. The experience will be unforgettable! According to legend, the thick lighthouse walls contain thousands of eggs to make them more wind- and sea-resistant. Additionally, they protect you from the sun during the summer months. The island of Dugi Otok has many attractions and is also considered a pearl of the Adriatic Sea.
