Zadar

Northern Dalmatia’s main city is Zadar, whose busy central alleys are crammed with medieval churches. The ancient capital of Dalmatia is a bustling town of around 100.000 people, but it preserves a relatively small-town feel, with a compact historic centre. Zadar has is own airport which is located in Zemunik Donji, (8 km from Zadar).
The airport is an important factor in connecting the regions of North Dalmatia and Lika with the other parts of Croatia and the world.

 From Zadar, ferries serve a chain of laid-back islands like Ugljan, and the ruggedly beautiful Dugi Otok.
