It is located between the islands of Žirje, Dugi otok and Pašman. The arcipelago is divided into two groups: Lower Kornati consisting of Kornat and surrounding islands and Upper Kornati made of Sit, Žut and surrounding islands. Because of the extraordinary beauty of landscape, the abundance of natural bays and the rich sea flora and fauna, out of 152 of the Kornati islands, 89 of them were declared a national park in 1980. One of the most impressive natural phenomena on Kornati are cliffs on many islands of the Lower Kornati, facing open sea. The cliffs have always been referred to as "crowns" (corona) and that is probably where the name of Kornati originates from. The highest cliffs can be found on the island of Klobučar (80m high), Mana (65m) and Rašip veli (64m). The cliffs can reach even up to 100 m under water. Apart from cliffs and the unusual shapes of the islands, another attraction on Kornati are straits Mala and Vela Proversa (the Small and the Great Proversa), located between the islands of Kornat, Katina and Dugi Otok. Mala Proversa is actually a shallow, dug through for sailing even in Roman times. Many archaeological findings can still be seen there, like the remains of buildings and a vivarium from the 1st century A.D. A very unique thing to be seen is the so-called Vela ploča (the Great Plate) or Magazinova škrila, a 9,100m2 large, even, bear surface of limestone. It is located near Metlina (237m), the highest peak on Kornati. Cruising the Kornati for the first time, you will surely notice hundreds of metres of the so- called "dry walls". Our ancestors built them with their own hands, come rain or shine, in order to keep their land and protect their pasture-ground, i.e. to prevent sheep from crossing from one pasture into the other. On some of the islands the length of these walls reaches up to 70 km, as it does on the island of Kornat. The center of life on these islands used to be around the plain of Tarac, with its Tureta fortress, built around 6 A.D. You can also find the Church of Our Lady of Tarac, the Queen of the Sea, which was built on remains of an early Christian church from the 16th century. The first Sunday in July is the day when the congregation of Murter go on a pilgrimage to Tarac and their votive ship procession is surely one of the most beautiful religious events in Croatia. Although the Kornati islands are not permanently inhabited, there are a few labourer's and fishermen's houses scattered around quiet, well preserved bays on islands like Žut, Sita, Kornat and the surrounding smaller islands. Nowadays, these houses have been made into restaurants and accommodation for the so-called "robinson tourism" and have become the favourite destination of navigators and other tourists. Kornat Kornat is the largest, the highest, the longest and also the best known island in the Šibenik archipelago. It is also the largest island in Croatia with no permanent settlements. Whereas the north-east of the island is not well-indented, the south-east is extremely rich in bays, the most famous of which are Opat, Koromašnja, Ropotnica, Kravljačica, Vruje, Strižnja, Lučica and Šipnate. Kornat is also known for its peaks, the Tureta fortress, the church of Our Lady of Tarac, as well as the great flat cliff called the Magazin's slate. Žut Žut is the second largest island in the Kornati archipelago. It is located next to the island of Kornat and divided from it by the passage of Žut. Žut is famous for its olive-groves and top quality olive oil. Some of the well known bays include Bizikovica , Golubovac, Sabuni, Dragišina, Žešnja etc. The ACI yacht harbour is located on this island. Sit Sit is one of the less known large islands. Its landscape looks more gentle than the southern islands of Kornati. Srednji kanal (the Middle passage) is located between Sit and Pašman - it is the best sea way between the waters of Zadar and Šibenik. The best known bays include Dulukina, Šumica, Ćitapićeva and Đunđirina.

Smješteni su između otoka Žirja, Dugog otoka i Pašmana. Arhipelag je podjeljeno u dvije skupine: Donje Kornate i Gornje Kornate. Donje Kornate čine otoci Sit i Žut i otoci oko njih, a Gornje Kornate otok Kornat i obližnji otoci. Od 152 kornatska otoka, 89 ih je zbog izuzetnih ljepota krajolika, velike obalne razvedenosti i bogate morske flore i faune proglašeno 1980.g. nacionalnim parkom. Jedna od najupečatljivijih prirodnih pojava na Kornatima su klifovi na nizu otoka Donjih Kornata, koji gledaju prema otvorenom moru. Klifovi se od davnina nazivaju krunama (kruna-corona) pa odatle vjerojatno potiče i ime Kornati. Najviši kornatski klifovi su na otoku Klobučaru (80 metara), na Mani (65 metara), Rašipu velom (64 metra) itd. Podmorski nastavci tih klisura dosežu i do 100 metara dubine. Pored klifova i najrazličitijih oblika pojedinih otoka od zanimljivosti se ističu i tjesnaci Mala i Vela Proversa, koji se nalaze izmedju Kornata, Katine i Dugog Otoka. Mala Proversa je ustvari pličak prokopan za plovidbu još u rimsko doba o ćemu svjedoče i arheoloski nalazi na tom mjestu (ostaci zgrade i vivarija-bazena za ribu iz 1. stoljeca n.e.). Specifična pojava je i Vela ploča ili Magazinova škrila, 9100m2 velika, glatka i gola ploha vapnenca, podno Metline (237 m) najvišeg vrha na Kornatu. Specifična pojava je i Vela ploča ili Magazinova škrila, 9100m2 velika, glatka i gola ploha vapnenca, podno Metline (237 m) najvišeg vrha na Kornatu. Krstareći prvi puta Kornatima svakom čovjeku, nautičaru ili izletniku odmah upadaju u oči stotine metara dugi tzv. suhozidi, izgrađeni žuljavim rukama naših pradjedova. i po buri i po ljetnoj žezi, ti zidovi su građeni da bi sačuvali posjed i zaštitili svoj "pašnjak" te spriječili prelazak ovaca iz jednog posjeda na drugi. Na otoku Kornatu npr. dužina tih zidova iznosi 70 km. Središte života na ovim otocima nekada je bilo oko polja Tarca, nad kojim dominira tvrđava Tureta, građena negdje u 6. st. Tu je smještena i crkvica Gospe od Tarca, Kraljice Mora sagrađena na ostacima starokršćanske crkve iz 16. st. Vjernici s otoka Murtera svake godine, prve nedjelje u srpnju, hodočaste gospi od Tarca, a zavjetna procesija brodovima jedan je od najljepših i najzanimljivijih vjerskih događaja u Hrvatskoj. Danas Kornati nisu stalno naseljeni, ali težačke i ribarske kućice, razasute po pitomim, dobro zaštićenim uvalama Žuta, Site, Kornata i pripadajućih otoka, odaju prisustvo njihovih vlasnika. Danas su ti porti, pretvoreni u restorane i smještajne objekte namijenjene "robinzonskom" turizmu, postali omiljena odredišta nautičara i turista. Kornati predstavljaju pravi raj za nautičare, ronioce i sve one koji znaju uživati u osami netaknute i veličanstvene prirode.
