Top-Rated Zadar Shore Excursions

Most ships dock at the Gaženica terminal a few kilometers south of the old town, with buses and taxis into the center. The old town on its narrow peninsula holds a Roman forum, the round pre-Romanesque church of St. Donatus and the waterfront Sea Organ, and boat trips run to the Kornati islands.
