Overview
Zadar is a historic gem on Croatia’s Dalmatian coast, where ancient charm meets modern marvels. Wander through its Roman ruins and medieval churches, including the iconic St. Donatus, then marvel at the Sea Organ, an architectural wonder that plays music with the waves. As the sun sets, the “Greeting to the Sun” lights up the waterfront in a dazzling display. With its crystal-clear Adriatic waters, nearby islands like Ugljan, and gateways to Kornati National Park, Zadar offers a perfect blend of culture, nature, and relaxation. Savor fresh seafood, explore vibrant markets, and soak in a sunset dubbed the world’s most beautiful by Alfred Hitchcock.
