Novigrad is a small fishermen village situated deep in Novigrad Sea - a bay in the area surrounded by national parks and nature reserves: Kornati Islands, Krka River, Paklenica Canyon, Plitvice Lakes, Velebit Mountain, Telascica Bay, Vrana Lake. The sea and rivers are friendly – they have pleasant temperatures in summer and they are not dangerous or physically demanding.
