  • Dalmatia seafront site with access to beach on the Karin Sea
  • Zadar and Kornati Islands boat trips within a half-hour drive
  • Playground, games room and watersports kit hire on site
Set up camp by what some call ‘the smallest sea in the world’… in reality the Karin Sea is actually an isolated part of the Adriatic, but there’s no arguing about the fact that Kamp Karin is right on the shoreline. This Dalmatia site is in a particularly pretty beachfront spot between the gorgeously clear sea water and the ancient pinewood trees; and it’s also a most handy spot, just a couple of minutes’ walk from the little village of Donji Karin, which has cafés, restaurants and a small supermarket. For more amenities, a 15-minute drive gets you to Benkovac for a supermarket, a popular farmers’ market, cultural events and various amenities. The area around the site is splendid for those seeking some outdoors time – as well as easy access to the beach (for kayaking, paddleboarding, fishing and sailing as well as just chilling out), there are lots of walking and cycling routes around – with treats along the way in the form of fresh fruits and local olive oil to purchase. Pampering is possible too at the area’s natural mineral mud baths. On site, all sorts of handy facilities are provided, including a playground and games room to keep the small travellers busy, plus a launderette, dog park and wifi connection. You can hire paddleboards and kayaks on site too for a bit of watery exploration. Safety and security are taken seriously at this site – it’s got a secure boundary fence and full-time night guard so you can sleep soundly, and reception’s open all day with multilingual staff to help out with any problems.

Liked posizione. temperatura fresca la sera. piazzole ampie. tranquillità.

Disliked qualche piccolo problema con l'allacciamento elettrico. Vista la vicinanza col fiume acqua non cristallina in mare ma temperatura gradevole.

From the manager: Grazie mille per la recensione.

Powered grass and earth campsite

Liked Posto molto carino è suggestivo.
C'è la piscina e tanta tranquillità.
Alcune piazzole sono un poco al sole e non è tanto agevole lo scarico delle acque grigie.
Nel complesso molto buono

From the manager: Grazie mille per la recensione.

Delightful site on bank of Karinsko More.

Powered grass and earth campsite

Liked gemoedelijke sfeer, leuke zwembaden, prachtige liggen aan de zee, tussen heel wat prachtige zaken om te bezoeken (Zadar, eiland Pag, Zrmanja canyon, Paklena NP, Krk NP, Split ... )

Disliked afhankelijk van waar je staat soms veel geluid 's nachts van de bars naast de camping (en het volk die dan door de camping langskomt)

Een rustige camping met de luxe van een zwembad

Powered grass and earth campsite

Liked Een charmante, gezellig campingplaats naast het Karin meer. De vrouw aan het onthaal was zeer vriendelijk en liet ons direct op ons gemak voelen. Ze leende ons een plug voor elektriciteit en we mochten onze ice packs in de diepvriezer steken. Ook was het geen probleem om bij the check-out iets later te vertrekken. Een frisse duik in het zwembad of het meer naast de camping maakte het echt af.

Local attractions

This part of the world is stacked with splendid scenery – and you’ll be well placed to see lots of it from Camping Karin. Start locally with an outing to see the ruins of Novigrad Castle (15 minutes’ drive), up on a windswept clifftop, then move on to the colourful underground grottos at Cerovacke Caves (45 minutes). For views mixed up with activity, there are some gorgeous canoe and raft trips through Zrmanja Canyon (half an hour) or hikes by the waterfalls in Krka National Park (45 minutes). Intrepid types may also choose to bungee jump at Maslenica bridge (25 minutes). Croatia’s national parks are well known for their stunning views, so it may also be worth trying to get in outings to the Kornati National Park (take a boat from Biograd, half an hour away) and Plitvice Lakes National Park (an hour and 20 minutes). If urban strolls are more your thing, aim instead for Zadar (half an hour) and Šibenik, with its UNESCO-listed cathedral (50 minutes).
