After more than a month to sleep in the car on our air mattress we must confess that we had barely out of bed this morning. Yet we still have a program of the day because we want to visit the islands of Ugljan and Pasman.

So we take the ferry to Zadar direction the island of Ugljan. Once on the island we drive to find the most beautiful coves. From what we were told it is located on the side of the Adriatic Sea otherwise said on the West coast of the island.

After borrowing a very narrow path between two stone wall in a pine forest we not parked in a tiny parking lot and go down between the pine trees at the edge of the sea. We put our towels on boulders, then we put our masks and our snorkels and hop in the water.

The sea is turquoise and transparent. You can see plenty of fish but mostly a lot of sea urchins. A Council not to forget its beach shoes.

We have our picnic in the shade and then do a little nap before hitting the road for the island of Pasman.

We are looking for a sandy beach to play Frisbee but unfortunately there have not. What is for the Croats of palms of sands are actually of great tips aside concreted or towels piled up. Well okay apparently there's a beach of white sand on this island but this is a nudist beach and we were kindly return.

After swimming in a second Cove we take a road that climbs to the top of a small mountain to enjoy a magnificent view of the Kornati Islands in the background a sublime sunset (coordinated GPS: 43.909526, 15.405857)
