Galešnjak Island, affectionately known as the “Heart Island,” is nestled in the Pašman Channel, first documented on maps over 200 years ago by Napoleon’s cartographers. However, it gained global recognition primarily through “Google Earth,” which, in 2008, featured the island among Croatia’s distinctive natural wonders, elevating it to prominence within the Zadar archipelago. With an area of 0.132 square kilometers, the island’s allure is evident as it earned a spot on Forbes’ list of the most romantic destinations for Valentine’s Day. Even the renowned singer Beyoncé celebrated her 39th birthday on this captivating island during her visit to Croatia, further adding to its allure and charm.
