Pinpointed Zadar region on the map of your next holiday destination, yeey! And now what? Feel like there are a number of question marks to be answered? Don't worry about them, because here are a few answers to your where’s:
Want to experience the beautiful Adriatic Sea and nature, listen to the cricket’s lulling chirp and breathe in the refreshing fragrant air? Then choose Zaton Holiday Resort, close to places of interest and with plenty of excitement for a dream family holiday.
Try the excellent taste of breakfast or dinner taken outdoors, on a terrace of a mobile home or apartment, surrounded by Mediterranean greenery. But add some Dalmatian flavour to your holiday in restaurants at the resort or go out to Pineta (Kožino) or Sokol (Nin) or maybe even do some sightseeing at the same time at Foša or 5 bunara, both in Zadar.
Beach or the swimming pool? Luckily, Zaton is a place where this summer question doesn’t need an answer and where you have the best of both within a short distance. The beach is considered to be one of the best ones in Croatia, with plenty of services and activities available as well as excellent water quality. The new swimming pool complex caters to all generations with pools of different sizes and depths. With fun slides and a spray park, the only dilemma you might have is when and how to get the children out of water.
In a hammock, in the cool shade of pine trees. In a sun lounger on the beach or by the pool. On a water massage bench with the view of the sea. On the promenade steps in Zadar, listening to the Sea Organ. In Jelena Madijevka Park, Zadar’s green oasis in the historical part. On a historical square, such as Narodni trg (People’s Square), sipping a refreshment like Dalmatians do, without a care in the world.
Move those feet, shape those muscles. Feel inspired by your surroundings to be(come) stronger, better, faster. Places like Zaton Holiday Resort offer you great facilities to do a variety of activities - from a lovely beach for a morning jog to sport courts to play (table) tennis, beach volleyball, football, basketball, handball, boccia, mini golf. Why not also pair your favourite activities with a bit of sightseeing? So go hiking in Paklenica, cycle the numerous trails in the region, go kayaking or horseback riding along the coast.
Reconnect and recharge in nature! Discover the beauty of nature in nearby national parks- from mountain tops and refreshing forests of Paklenica, waterfalls, cascades and amazing scenery of Krka to wonderful Kornati islands with rich underwater world to explore. Or the breathtaking beauty of Telašćica Nature Park, diverse animal life, particularly birds, as found in Vrana Lake Nature Park and Nin’s Eco Park. Visit the green olive groves and vineyards on Pašman island and Zadar’s hinterland and admire the greatness of nature in Zrmanja river and canyon.
Go west and east, north and south for culture and history. From cities like Zadar and Šibenik (with UNESCO’s World Heritage Sites), towns and villages on the coast and hinterland like Nin, Pag, Novigrad, Benkovac, to name just a few, Zadar region has an exciting history and monuments to tell its story.
How to fully relax and yet see all the amazing places of interest and do all the exciting things in relatively short-time? It’s easy! Pick a few and leave some for next year. Because Zadar region is a place you always come back to for more.
