Croatia has been a prominent holiday destination since the sixties, specifically with vacationers from Poland, Italy and the U.K. The environment of the seaside locations is significantly a Mediterranean one, providing very warm sunny weather throughout June, July and August. Zadar is the most eye-catching town on the Dalmatian coast. Its Italian appearance is highlighted by the variety of Italian speaking residents and high quality Italian restaurants. After a day spent on one of the beautiful beaches in the area, Zadar is just the place to spend a summer night. Looking at pictures, you really cannot tell the difference between the coastline and beaches of Zadar with that of Italy. The coastlines are flawless with its crystal blue waters, pearl white sand, and rocky surroundings. Even taking a photo on a cheap disposable camera will look like a postcard in this kind of environment.
Pick Croatia and the city of Zadar if you want bustling historic squares full of character, color and cafe culture; if you want to check out magical palaces, old churches and old walled towns; and if you want to explore the Dalmatian Coast. Southern European mild climate makes it a great place to explore, no matter what time of year you plan to get away.
Croatian coast has become one of Europe’s most exciting destinations but getting there can be tricky. If you’re coming from outside Europe, understand that there are no direct air travels from North America to Dalmatia . You’ll need to make a stop in another European city for a flight to Croatia . Thankfully there are more and more routes opening up. If you’re arriving from Italy however, the finest bet is in most cases to take a ferry to Dalmatia. That’s what most Italians do which is why there are more ferries than flights from Italy to Croatia .
All hotels have very accurate descriptions and photo galleries, and they are also adequatelydescribed by their rating stars, however how to find appropriate apartment when there is so little information? Many people leasing lodging in Zadar are private property owners and they have nice houses by the beach or in the countryside, with apartments for numerous numbers of individuals. These apartments and studio-apartments in private homes can vary from conventional to luxury ones, but if you’re looking for a really exclusive experience of Zadar, then you certainly need to book accommodation in a classic Dalmatian vacation home. If you don’t feel like spending your holidays in a stone house, find a modern villa which follows all newest technology trends, enjoy in its poolside and a view at the sea. It is suggested to make your reservations in advance. An outstanding resource for tourists looking for cheap apartments and hotels in Zadar can be found here.
