Kornati National Park, Croatia

Croatia's Kornati archipelago, sometimes called the Stomorski islands, is situated in the Šibenik-Knin County in the northern region of Dalmatia, west of Šibenik and south of Zadar. The Kornati are the densest archipelago in the Mediterranean water, spanning 35 kilometers (22 miles) and consisting of 89 islands, some large and others small, within a water area of roughly 320 square kilometers (124 square miles).They extend 13 km (8 miles) from northeast to southwest (from Gangarol to Mana) and northwest to southeast (from the island of Balabra to Samograd). The name of the largest island, Kornat, is the plural version of the name of the archipelago. Kornati has no permanent settlements. Landowners on the mainland use simple homes in protected coves like Vrulje, Kravjačica, Lavsa, and others as temporary shelter. The majority of landowners are from Dugi Otok and the island of Murter.The average water temperature is 14 to 15 °C (57 to 59 °F) in the winter and 22.8 °C (73.0 °F) in the summer. The average monthly temperature in January is 7.3 °C (45.1 °F), while in July it is 23.9 °C (75.0 °F).

In order to preserve the islands and their marine environment, the 89 southernmost of the 140-plus islands, islets, and reefs that make up the Kornati archipelago were designated as Nacionalni Park Kornati in 1980. The Donji Kornati, which consists of the island of Kornat and its surrounding islets, divided from the island of Piškera and its surrounding islets by a channel, is largely located inside the national park's boundaries.The national park includes 109 islands, of which 76 are less than 1 hectare in size. Of the total land surface area of Kornati, 62 km2 (24 sq mi), or 85%, is stony, and only 5% has been cultivated
