Obrovac je grad na rijeci Zrmanji nekih 11 km od ušća rijeke Novigradskog mora. Iznad grada su ruševine utvrđenog grada. Njezina pritoka Krupa privlači brojne izletnike, a u novije vrijeme i ljubitelje raftinga, kanua i kajaka. Nedaleko od grada Krupe nalazi se samostan s vrijednom zbirkom ikona. Otprilike 2 km sjeverozapadno od grada, uz cestu koja ide prema planinama, smjestio se ogroman napušteni industrijski kompleks, pogon glinice izgrađen 1970-ih. Obrovac je svoje ime prvi put dobio 1337. godine. 1527. godine Turci su ga preuzeli Turci. U listopadu 1683. godine stanovništvo mletačke Dalmacije, uglavnom uskoci Ravnih kotara, uzelo je oružje i zajedno s rajama (nižim slojem) osmanskih pograničnih regija ustalo, zauzevši Skradin, Karin, Vranu, Benkovac i Obrovac. 1687. godine Stojan Janković, morlački vođa, natjerao je Osmanlije iz Obrovca. Znamenitosti koje svakako treba posjetiti su Manastir Krupa, ostaci rimskog naselja Cvijina Gradina, Utvrda Kurjakovića, crkva sv.Josipa, sv. Kuzmana i Damjana, sv. Trojice, kanjon Zrmanje. Uske ulice, kava na prekrasnoj rivi, pogled s vidikovca, stare talijanske šljunčane staze, kupanje u jednoj od najčišćih rijeka na svijetu, sve to nudi ovaj kraj a i mnogo više.

This town boasts of ancient cathedrals and churches that are full of history. Their designs and astonishing towers are a delight to watch. They are so peaceful, serene, and perfect for relaxation. I recommend this town if you want to rest your mind, body, and soul.

Our visit to Obrovac was amazing. We were guided on the highest points of this place. It was good viewing the meandering rivers and beautiful slopes.
