  • Friendly small-scale site on the north coast of Pašman
  • Beach opposite the site; 10 minutes' drive to Tkon ferry port
  • Kitchen and barbecues on site; kayaks and bikes for rent
Time to dial the pace down on life for a little while? How about a bit of time hanging out on one of Dalmatia’s less touristed islands? With quiet beaches, lots of greenery and some easily accessible hiking/bike trails to explore on its 60 square kilometres of land, the island of Pašman makes a splendid place to chill out for a few days. It’s the gorgeous beaches that draw a lot of people here – and you’ll be almost next to one of them when you stay at Camp Arboretum, on the northern side of the island about five minutes’ drive from Barotul. This small-scale family site is about 150 metres from the sand, with a handful of beach bars, restaurants and a market within easy walking distance too. This is a friendly site with just the right amount of facilities to make guests comfortable – it’s got showers, toilets and wifi as well as a play area where the kids can have a bit of a run about. The central facility is a gathering place with kitchen facilities (including a fridge, gas cooker and dishes for guest use) and barbecues (best used to cook up meals of whatever you’ve sourced at the fish and veg markets three kilometres away…) Relaxing on the beach is of course a good way to spend a day or few – but so is getting out to explore the island. The folk on site have made that easy for you as there are bikes and kayaks to rent and the owner often organises sailing trips on his traditional boat.

Power optional grass and earth tent or trailer tent campsite (four person)

Liked: Ottima la cortesia del proprietario, ci è piaciuta la posizione del campeggio, la sua quiete, gli spazi comuni ben gestiti, la pulizia, la dimensione ridotta che lo rende più familiare, consigliato a chi ha bambini, che possono liberamente muoversi dato che è interamente pedonale.

Power optional grass and earth tent campsite (two person)

Liked: Io e il mio ragazzo abbiamo campeggiato al Camp Arboretum tre notti. Il camping è piccolo ma intimo e accogliente con un’atmosfera famigliare, ci sono tutti i servizi bagno, cucina e lavanderia. Abbiamo apprezzato molto il frigo comune all’interno della sala cucina/ lavanderia (cosa molto rara nei campeggi). Igor ci tiene alla pulizia dei luoghi comuni, inoltre è una persona molto gentile e disponibile, nel nostro caso ci ha aiutato a risolvere un problema con l’auto. La gentilezza e la disponibilità sono cose rare e non scontate e per questo gli saremo sempre grati!

Liked: It was a great experience! The Camp in small and really clean, shower and bathrooms are ideal! There is also a small kitchen, a fridge, space to wash your dishes and clothes and a fireplace you can use to grill food. Igor, the owner, is really nice and will help you in any way you need. There is also a small supermarket you can reach with a 10 minutes walk and a big one that is a 10 minutes drive away! We loved our staying here!

Local attractions

How would you like to explore? If you’re heading out on foot you may like to climb up to Veliki Bokolj, the island’s highest point at 275 metres – the hike will take a couple of hours from the campsite. The Ćokovac Monastery (an hour and 20 minutes on foot) is another nice place to visit. Cyclists, meanwhile, can choose from two well-marked bike paths (number 8 being a gentler option than number 7). Or, if it’s all about the sea for you, take a tour of beaches like Lucina (five minutes’ drive) and Tratica (10 minutes). Making your way along the coastline in a kayak is also an excellent way to explore some of the coves along the shoreline. You can also cross the bridge to the neighbouring island of Ugljan or join a boat trip to the Kornati Islands (from Biograd na Moru, 45 minutes away). Head back over to the mainland and you can also make day trips to places like Zadar (an hour), Krka National Park (an hour and 15 minutes) or Paklenica National Park (an hour and a half).
