Jezera is a settlement in Croatia located on the island of Murter. Situated in the northern Dalmatia region along the central Adriatic coast, it forms part of Tisno municipality.
It is the second-largest settlement in the municipality after Tisno, and a major tourist destination in summer, known for its stunning coastline and vibrant local culture.[3] The town attracts visitors interested in both leisure and cultural activities, and experiences a significant population surge during the summer months.[4]
The name Jezera translates to 'lakes' in English, reflecting the area's natural landscape and proximity to bodies of water.[5]
Jezera has a natural harbour protected from frequent Adriatic winds such as jugo or bora.[6]
