The Healing Flavours and Fragrances of Dugi Otok
Dugi otok (˝long island˝) is known far and wide for its pristine natural environment. This 50-kilometre-long island is home to an immensely diverse flora and many other natural beauties that are in full bloom in spring, when all of nature reawakens and the island becomes a palette of intense and beautiful colours. All this is reason enough to visit the island outside high season. The diversity of the medicinal plants that abound on Dugi otok provides an excellent reason to go on a multi-day tour of the island. The best way to familiarise yourself with these plants is to go on an expert-guided tour of Telašćica Nature Park or the Significant Landscape of the north-western part of Dugi otok. Come and savour all the colours and smells of this region…come and experience our very own Long Island!
