      About Žut

      The island of Žut is part of the Kornati islands group, located between Pašman and Kornati islands. This long, narrow island has a rugged, deeply indented coastline with numerous bays, including Luka, Hiljača, Sarušćica, Žut, and Bizikovica. These secluded bays are perfect for visiting with small sailing or fishing boats.

      Žut has no permanent settlements. Instead, it is occasionally visited by fishermen, shepherds, and olive and fig growers from the nearby island of Murter. Camping is a popular activity on Žut, offering a unique chance to spend a night under one of the clearest, starriest skies in Europe, thanks to the absence of light pollution. Skygazing on Žut is exceptional, especially around August, when the Perseids meteor shower occurs. This natural phenomenon can be observed with the naked eye, providing a stunning display of falling stars.

      Just 20 nautical miles from the city of Zadar, Žut offers a peaceful experience close to the mainland. Its numerous bays provide ideal spots for anchoring and enjoying the natural beauty of the area.
