Na moru is literally on the sea. From the restaurant in coastal Valun village on the sylvan island of Cres, you can watch fish hauls in perfectly clean sea before you eat your perfectly grilled and perfectly fresh fish served with impossibly sweet vegetables from a nearby garden. The best tables are just two feet away from water, with a beautiful view of the sea, beaches and woods. They know how to grill fish, cook chard, zucchini and potato, but anything slightly more complex, from serving molluscs to marinated anchovies, is quantum physics. Maybe it should stay like that, because you don’t go to Valun for the gastronomy but to experience the magnificent nature of Cres.
