Zadar
With the intense blue of sea, the lush deep greens of pine and olive groves and the pure white of Dalmatia stone, this region of Zadar is extraordinary and unique in the world.
Zadar faces the islands of Ugljan and Pašman, from which it is separated by the narrow Zadar Strait. The promontory on which the old city stands used to be separated from the mainland by a deep moat which has since been filled.
The harbour, to the north-east of the town, is safe and spacious.
