Destination
Explore the surroundings
Biograd na Moru is an ideal destination for a seaside holiday, walks, beaches and excursions to some of Dalmatia’s most beautiful natural attractions. Thanks to its proximity to Soline Beach, Lake Vrana, Kornati, Telašćica and Krka, Family Hotel Adria is the perfect starting point for a relaxed, active and experience-filled holiday.
Biograd na Moru - family destination in the heart of Dalmatia
For a family holiday in Dalmatia, Biograd na Moru offers the kind of combination that makes summer a season guests return to again and again: the sea, beaches, walks, excursions, a Dalmatian pace of life and enough things to do for every day of your stay. Family Hotel Adria is set in a pine forest, just 300 metres from Soline Beach. You are close to the sea, yet surrounded by a quieter, greener setting.
Biograd is a town that is easy to enjoy without too much planning. One day can be reserved for the beach and the pool, another for a walk along the waterfront, the next for a boat trip, and another for exploring the surrounding area. This is exactly why it suits families, couples and guests who want their holiday to feel simple, but never impersonal or monotonous.
Soline Beach is one of the key advantages of the hotel’s location, as it is just a gentle 5-minute walk away. Being this close to the beach means that going to the sea does not need to be planned as an outing, but can simply become a natural part of the day. A morning swim, an afternoon walk or an
evening return through the pine trees all fit easily into the appeal of the location and the flow of a summer holiday.
Bošana and Dražica beaches offer even more choice for guests who enjoy visiting different beaches during their stay.
Biograd offers waterfront walks, family-friendly facilities, a Mediterranean atmosphere and a range of events, including the Biograd Boat Show. For guests of Family Hotel Adria, this means your stay can remain completely relaxed, while still giving you the option to extend the day with activities beyond the hotel.
From Biograd, it is easy to plan excursions to Kornati National Park, Krka National Park, Lake Vrana Nature Park, the island of Pašman and Šibenik. These experiences add extra value to your stay, especially for guests who want to combine an all-inclusive hotel holiday with exploring the beauty of Dalmatia.
The nearest airport is in Zadar, while good road connections make Biograd a practical choice for guests travelling from Croatia, Slovenia, Austria and Germany.
Nearby beaches
Soline Beach
The main town beach is located 350 metres below Family Hotel Adria, surrounded by pine forest.
This pebble and sandy bay is popular with families with children thanks to its long shallow area and gradual entry into the sea. The bay is surrounded by dining and entertainment facilities.
Nearby, you will also find a beach volleyball court, showers and changing cabins.
Dražica Beach
Continuing from Soline Beach along the promenade towards the town, you will reach Dražica, a pebble bay with a wide range of facilities, including cafés, snack bars and souvenir stalls. Services such as outdoor massages, children’s entertainment, pedal boat, scooter and boat rental are also available.
The beach also features an aqua park and a large waterslide. Entry into the sea is gradual, and there is also adapted access for people with disabilities. The Blue Flag is a mark of the cleanliness and quality of this well-maintained beach.
Bošana Beach
This pebble beach is located on the north-western side of the town, close to Marina Kornati, and is a gentle 10-minute walk from the town centre.
The beach offers several smaller dining facilities, including cafés, a restaurant and fast food options.
It is popular with families with young children thanks to facilities such as a sandy playground and an aqua park, as well as its gradual entry into the sea.
Lake Vrana Nature Park
Lake and sea side by side — this is perhaps the simplest way to describe the location of Lake Vrana, the largest natural lake in Croatia.
Set within a Mediterranean climate, yet remarkably shallow, with depths ranging from two to no more than five metres, Lake Vrana is a natural phenomenon: a flooded karst field rich in life.
Kornati National Park and Telašćica Nature Park
A stone labyrinth of eighty-nine islands, islets and reefs rising from the sea — this is Kornati, the most indented island group in the Mediterranean. The view of the Kornati islands is equally impressive from the air, from the sea or from the island viewpoints, yet each perspective reveals something completely different. Every one is worth experiencing and exploring.
The dry-stone walls on the Kornati islands stand as silent and enduring witnesses to the hardship of human labour on sparse, rocky land surrounded by crystal-clear sea.
Telašćica is a place where white cliffs, among the steepest on the Adriatic and rising up to 161 metres, plunge into the blue of the sea. Bottlenose dolphins, the last marine mammals of the Adriatic, have made Telašćica one of their favourite habitats, often appearing in groups and giving visitors another unforgettable memory to capture.
Countless bays, headlands and reefs, together with one of the safest natural harbours for sailors — this is Telašćica.
Krka National Park
The magnificent seven: Bilušića Buk, Brljan, Manojlovac, Rošnjak, Miljacka Slap, Roški Slap and Skradinski Buk. These are the tufa waterfalls of the Krka River — for many, the most beautiful blue lines of the Dalmatian karst.
A splendour of cascades and the rich, vibrant sound of flowing water. In many places, the Krka flows calmly, announcing its waterfalls with “silver necklaces” — ever-denser ripples that take on a silvery colour and appear like countless necklaces scattered along the river.
