The city of Zadar enjoys an enviable location on Croatia’s Adriatic coast and is arguably one of the country’s most beautiful cities.   Zadar is steeped in a history that stretches over three millennia but it offers visitors even more than that with the stunning islands of its archipelago, fabulous views over the Adriatic and an exciting nightlife.  Book a flight to Zadar if you want to enjoy the very best of Croatia’s beauty, hospitality and history but also want to visit the road less travelled by comparison to Zagreb, Split or Dubrovnik.

The city is mainly located on the coast with the Old Town situated on its very own peninsula.  Highlights of the Old Town include the City Walls themselves and the Gates of Zadar.  Evidence of the city’s importance during the Roman Era can be found at the Roman Forum remains, which are located in front of St Donat’s Church, the largest pre-Romanesque edifice in Croatia.  Visitors can find out much more about the long and fascinating history of the city at either the Archaeological Museum of Zadar, one of Croatia’s oldest and most respected museums, or at The National Museum.  As well as its historic streets and buildings some of the city’s most well-loved sights include its more modern offerings.  The Sea Organ is a unique set of steps which creates music from the waves and close by is the Greeting to the Sun, another newly iconic aspect of Zadar’s landscape. The ‘Greeting’ is a multi-coloured glass, under lit floor located at precisely the right spot to view the city’s famed sunsets.
