Kornati - Croatia
Kornati - Croatia

The Kornati archipelago consists of 89 islands, islets, rocks and reefs and as George Bernard Shaw put it nicely „ On the last day of the Creation God desired to crown his work and thus crated the Kornati islands out of tears, stars and breath“. The archipelago is the largest marine protected area in Croatia. „Getting lost“ in Kornati is one of the biggest pleasures for yachtsman. That is exactly what the British king Edward VIII., known as a ruler who found love more important than the crown itself, did. Just before he gave up the British crown in 1936, he spent his summer sailing across the Adriatic and (supposedly) in the silence of the Kornati archipelago he had managed to hear his heart and solved his doubts about the beloving Miss Simpson or the crown?
