One of the nearby towns, located on Murter island. Quieter, beachy, and a great spot to recover between sets. About 5–10 minutes’ drive or a scenic 50-minute walk, with biking taking around 15 mins.
Jezera ("the lakes"), a place for fishermen, sailors, divers, tourism professionals and restaurateurs, is located on the south-east coast of the island of Murter. The island is interesting because of its proximity to the coastline with which it is connected by a bridge about thirty meters long. The village has about 1000 inhabitants and is positioned at the end of the bay (horseshoe-shaped) surrounded by hills. Thanks to this natural location, the village is sheltered from high winds and its bay is therefore an ideal port that regularly welcomes boats. It is only 7 mins by car/taxi and a 20 min walk to The Garden, Tisno festival site. You will need to cross the bridge so make sure you check the timings for the bridge so you are not stuck in traffic but the taxi drivers should know this anyway and advise accordingly.
Jezera's coastline is a tapestry of pristine beaches, secluded bays, and crystal-clear waters. Each beach tells its own tale, from the bustling Zaratic Beach to the tranquil Koromasna Beach. These coastal gems are not just places to relax and sunbathe; they are windows into the town's soul, reflecting its maritime heritage, natural beauty, and cultural vibrancy.
The main beach Zaratic Beach is a short walk along the marina, There are rocks you can sit on but if you keep walking there is a small stony beach. Take your water shoes! There are a few little restaurants and kiosks.
Zaratic Beach - The Heart of Jezera Also known as Jezera Beach, Zaratic is located on the eastern end of the village. It's a hub of activity, offering a plethora of amenities like beach bars and equipment rentals. The beach's strategic location, close to the marina and the town centre, makes it a favourite among both locals and tourists. Its golden sands and azure waters are a testament to Jezera's commitment to environmental conservation, a fact further underscored by the numerous awards the town has received for its pristine beaches.
Jasenovac Beach - A Snorkeler's Paradise Tucked away in a secluded location on the west coast, Jasenovac Beach is a haven for marine enthusiasts. Its clear waters offer unparalleled visibility, making it a popular spot for snorkeling. The underwater world here is teeming with life, from colorful corals to exotic fish species. The beach's serene ambiance, coupled with its rich marine biodiversity, makes it a must-visit for nature lovers.
Koromasna Beach - The Hidden Gem Situated on Jezera's wild west coast, Koromasna Beach is a slice of untouched paradise. Its relative obscurity ensures that it remains peaceful even during peak tourist season. The beach's rugged beauty, characterized by rocky outcrops and dense vegetation, offers a stark contrast to the town's more commercial beaches. It's a place where one can truly disconnect and immerse oneself in nature's splendor.
