History, Secrets & Natural Wonders

The excursion offers a unique combination of history and untouched nature. While Goli Otok is known as a former political prison, Zavratnica is one of the most beautiful bays of the Adriatic, nestled at the foot of the Velebit Mountain. This tour allows you to explore abandoned prison ruins, swim in crystal-clear waters, and admire spectacular landscapes.

A Short History of the Prison

🔹 1949 – 1988 – The Notorious Prison for Political Prisoners of Former Yugoslavia
🔹 The Strictest Prison – Inmates endured harsh working conditions and severe punishments
🔹 Finally Closed in 1988 – Now abandoned, but still echoes its grim past

Today, visitors can explore the ruins of prison facilities, cells, and factory workshops, while guided stories provide a fascinating insight into the darker side of the island’s history.

SkrivA Hidden Gem of the Velebit Channel

Before visiting the prison, the excursion leads to Zavratnica, a spectacular bay reminiscent of the Norwegian fjords. This protected natural wonder stretches 900 meters, featuring turquoise waters and steep cliffs rising above the shoreline.

✔ One of the most beautiful bays in Croatia
✔ Crystal-clear water, perfect for swimming and snorkeling
✔ Sunken wreck of a German WWII ship – a perfect attraction for divers
✔ Walking trails and photography spots with panoramic views

📌 Fun Fact: The bay is part of the Velebit Nature Park, and thanks to its untouched nature and peaceful atmosphere, it is an ideal place for relaxation.
