Excursion Between two blues: vrana lake, legendary wines & ottoman heritage tour at Zadar

Discover northern Dalmatia, where the crystal-clear waters of the Adriatic Sea meet the tranquil expanse of Vrana Lake, Croatia’s largest natural lake.

Overlooking this remarkable landscape, Karaba Winery welcomes you for a guided visit of its cellar and an introduction to the family’s winemaking tradition. Enjoy a tasting of locally produced wines paired with regional specialties while taking in panoramic views of the lake and surrounding countryside.

Among the winery’s most distinguished labels is Templar, a premium blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Syrah inspired by the Knights Templar, who settled in the Vrana Lake region during the 12th century.

Conclude your visit with traditional Turkish coffee and Turkish delight, served in tribute to the region’s rich cultural heritage, before returning to your awaiting ship.
