How to Spend Three Days in Zadar
Three days in Zadar will allow you to see the majority of the city and its surrounds. Take a culinary lesson in Croatia, go on an island excursion, or watch the sunset (or three) while drinking maraschino liqueur. Here are some of our best recommendations for making the most of your 72 hours in the ancient harbor city.
Day 1: Get to Know Zadar
Spend your first day getting to know Zadar by taking a historical tour or participating in a cultural activity for a tailored perspective of the seaside city. Take advantage of Segway or bike tours for quick and efficient transportation to famous locations ahead of the crowds. Alternatively, enroll in a traditional Croatian cooking class. Finish your day with a sunset cruise to see the famed Dalmatian sunset, then take a stroll around the Old Town after dark to see Zadar’s active nightlife.
Day 2: Archipelago Exploration
Make a day of it and spend it exploring the Adriatic. Take a fishing expedition early in the morning, or travel to adjacent islands such as Pag and Dugi Otok in search of hidden coves and beautiful scenery. Self-propelled vessels are available for active guests, while cruise tours with onboard food and beverages are available for those seeking to relax. Relax on land after a day of water activities with a seafood meal and a sip of maraschino liqueur, a Zadar speciality.
Day 3: Explore More of Croatia
Spend your final day in Croatia in one of the country’s hidden gems, such as the Plitvice Lakes, Krka National Park, or the Zrmanja River. Simple transportation can help you save money, or an active excursion can provide you with the supervision and insights of a guide. Alternatively, explore another Croatian city, such as Split or Trogir, at your own speed on a trip that allows you to choose your schedule. If time allows, end your stay with a multisensory experience by viewing the sunset from Zadar’s Sea Organ.
