The lighthouse is surrounded by pine trees, beautiful bays and pebble beaches. It is considered one of the most beautiful on the Adriatic. The lighthouse has one four-bed and one three-bed apartment. The lighthouse can be reached by car. Due to roads leading to neighbouring places, a regular supply of provisions is not a problem. Dense pine woods surrounding the lighthouse offer a wide range of activities for active holiday lovers who are not primarily interested in suntanning and swimming. The surrounding waters are rich in various types of fish. During your stay in Veli Rat, you can visit Kornati National Park and Telascica Nature Park nearby. The starting point for trips to Kornati is the place of Sali on the other side of Dugi otok. The lighthouse has always had a lighthouse keeper and there has always been a waiting list, since many lighthouse keepers have been dreaming of spending at least some time in this unique lighthouse. At the moment, the lighthouse keeper Zvone, his wife and daughter Ivana live in the lighthouse. If you decide to spend your holiday in Veli Rat, their hospitality awaits you.

The best underwater fishing area is about 2 miles east of the lighthouse, where there are steep cliffs. The Lagnici cliffs surround the shallow waters on the western side where you will find a shipwreck. East of Veli Rat, the seabed is extremely deep, which is somewhat unusual for this part of the island of Dugi otok. The islet of Mezanj nearby is famous as a favourable fishing area.
