Obrovac
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.

Obrovac has adventurous activities to engage in. My friends and I had a wonderful time canoeing and kayaking in the wild river. The adrenaline rush as we moved downstream was worth it. By the end of the trip, we were deeply gratified.

My buddies and I had a terrific time visiting this town. We had a pleasant time visiting the ancient ruins of the fortresses that looked so quaint and charming. We learned a lot of medieval history from the guides. It's a beautiful town worth a trip.

It was a lot of fun on our vacation to Obrovac. We particularly loved the water rafting and tubing experience in the magnificent rivers. We made a lot of friends on these excursions. The trip was worth every penny spent.
