TRAVEL TO ZADAR

Zadar is situated in the southernmost part of the Republic of Croatia and is connected with European capitals and the rest of the world by air, sea and public transport. You can reach Zadar by plane and by road.

By plane

Zadar has its own airport: https://zadar-airport.hr/en/homepage/ , which is only 11 kilometres away from the town.

Buses from the airport to the main bus terminal in Zadar roughly run in conjunction with flight arrivals (see the How to get here page on the Zadar airport website for bus times - airport bus info

A bus waits outside the terminal (on the right-hand side). A one-way ticket costs 5 EUR, which can be bought directly from the driver when boarding. This bus makes two stops - firstly at the main bus station in Zadar (driving takes only 15 minutes), and then just outside the Old Town (further 5 minutes). The ticket price is the same regardless of which stop you get off at.

By road

The A1 motorway runs very close to Zadar, so it can easily be used if you're reaching the town from either north or south Croatia.

The famous Jadranska magistrala coastal road (road D8) also reaches Zadar if you're driving up the Croatian coastline.
