Arrive at the port well in advance of your scheduled departure time. Present your booking confirmation (either printed or on your mobile device) at the ticket office or check-in counter to collect your boarding pass and any additional instructions.
About Jadrolinija
Jadrolinija is the primary Croatian ferry company operating routes along the Adriatic coast and between the numerous Croatian islands. When booking a rental car, registration plates cannot be guaranteed for the rental period, so ferry tickets should be booked separately via Jadrolinija's website at shop.jadrolinija.hr.
Step-by-Step Booking Guide
1. Visit the Jadrolinija Website
Go to the official Jadrolinija online booking portal and select your desired route and date. Make sure to choose the option that includes car transport.
2. Add Your Vehicle
When adding a vehicle to the booking system, look for the "Rent-a-car vehicle" checkbox and select it. This is important as it indicates the vehicle is a rental.
3. Enter Vehicle Details
Enter the vehicle details including the number plate and dimensions. If you don't have the registration plate yet, you can often update it closer to the departure date.
4. Complete Payment
Process payment through accepted credit or debit card methods. You'll receive a confirmation email with your booking details.
5. At the Port
Present your confirmation at the port upon arrival. Arrive at least 30 minutes before departure for car ferries to ensure smooth boarding.
Tips for Island Hopping with a Rental Car
- Book ferry tickets early during peak season (July-August) as car spaces fill up quickly
- Check the ferry schedule for return trips before driving onto the island
- Some smaller islands have limited fuel stations — fill up before boarding
- Contact Avax if you need the vehicle registration details for your ferry booking
