The people of the island of Murter have been living mainly from fishing, seafaring and agriculture for generations. That is why there are plenty of good restaurants on the island of Murter that will provide you with culinary delicacies.
Murter is the main town on the island of Murter and is located in the Dalmatia region about 42 km south of Biograd na Moru. The Hramina Bay is very popular with boaters, as the large Murter marina of the same name is located here. In the Slanica Bay is the popular sandy beach Slanica, which is extremely popular with the locals as well as families with children. Around the Slanica and the other beaches of Murter there are varied sports and leisure opportunities for active holidaymakers and for children.
In the evening you can discover and enjoy Murter’s excellent island cuisine in the restaurants and taverns. Seafood, freshly caught fish and meat dishes, prepared in typical Croatian style and accompanied by local wine, are real culinary delights. After that, it’s up to you whether you want to end the evening quietly or spend it in good company. One of the most beautiful locations for this is the terrace of Cafe Bar Sirena on Luke Beach.
