Pakleni Islands


Catering to the well-heeled yachties moored in Palmižana bay, this upmarket restaurant serves contemporary European cuisine, including Dalmatian specialities such as pašticada (beef stew), gregada (fish with potatoes) and a very pretty octopus salad. The slick service and gorgeous setting, on a terrace shaded by palm trees, will help to distract you from the prices.
