La rivière Krka au NW de Sibenik est longue de 72 km et s'étend sur 109 km², le chenal est simple et porte des feux.
A environ 2,5 NM en amont de Sibenik, un pont routier franchit la gorge, et un peu au-delà il y a une ligne à haute tension. Le Tirant d'Air maxi est de 28 m sous le pont et la ligne. Dans cette zone, des hauts-fonds bordent les rives.

La rivière se rétrécit ensuite et se divise en deux parties.
Le bras NW mène au village de Zaton. Cette partie est utilisée pour des courses d'aviron, il y a des bouées sans feu dans le chenal.
Le bras NE mène à Prukjansko Jezero, lac de 2,5 NM de long sur 1 NM de large. Deux lignes électriques traversent le chenal avant Prukjansko Jezero, leur T. Air est de plus de 29 m.

Le lac est bordé par une rive peu profonde (1 à 8 m) parsemée de rochers émergeants ou affleurants. Des rochers bordent la rive par endroits.
On peut mouiller dans plusieurs baies abritées autour du lac.

La rivière Krka se jette dans le lac à l'E. En remontant la rivière Krka vers Skradin, le chenal est de nouveau étroit et sinueux.
On peut s'amarrer à la marina de Skradin et aller voir les cascades en annexe.
Le parc national de Krka compte 7 chutes le long de son parcours. Les chutes ont de 200m à 400m de largeur et la hauteur totale du dénivelé est de 45,7m. C'est un spectacle grandiose, féérique! Les chutes du Krka rebondissent  sur 17 bancs de travertin en constante formation. Le site est considéré comme le plus beaux ensembles karstiques d’Europe.

Le mouillage est interdit en face de Skradin, mais les autorités autorisent les plaisanciers à mouiller temporairement, la nuit il faut se rendre à la marina.

La force du courant dans la rivière varie suivant la période de l'année.
En été le courant est négligeable, mais à d'autres périodes de l'année ou après de fortes pluies, il peut atteindre 3 nœuds dans les zones les plus étroites.
