I randomly discovered Dugi Otok while in Zadar traveling alone. In March, most seafood restaurants are still closed, but there are delightful little cafes full of fishermen and retired people, a welcoming local library that acts as a meeting space for the community, small towns, gorgeous cliffs and nature. I loved staying at the island in between cities, you feel very far away from the mainland even though the ferry takes barely any time. Locals are happy to talk to you and help with finding the bus, for example.
