Zadar Airport kontor (renteonId 48) asub lennujaamast 12 km idapoolsel pool, mis on ideaalne saabumisele järgneva autovuokramiseks. Zadar Centre kontor asub linnas endas ja sobib paremini külalistele, kes juba Zadaris viibivad ja soovivad reisi keskel autot võtta, või neil on vaja linna keskusest sõidukit järgi saada.

Meremeel töötab pidevalt siis, kui meri liigub, kuid see on kõige kuuldavam ja atmosfäärilisem õhtul, kui turistide rahvahulk väheneb. Päikese Tervitus valgusshow algab kohe pärast päikeseloojangut ja on kõige elavamalt tunda pimeduse esimeses tunnis. Mõlemad on tasuta külastamiseks ja asuvad otse rannapromenaalil.

Jah. Kuigi Kornati on tehniliselt rahvuspark, mis asub ookeanis, lahkuvad paatide ekskursioonid iga päev Zadari sadamast ja lähedal asuvate linnade Biograd na Moru (30 km lõunasse) ja Murteri (60 km lõunasse) sadamatest. Saate sõita paadi väljumispaigani ja liituda päevapikkuse reisiga saartele, mis on täiesti asustamata ja spektaakliline.

Split asub Zadarist 160 km kaugusel. A1 kiirtee kaudu võtab sõit umbes 1 tund 30 minutit keskmiste liiklusolude korral. D8 rannamaantee kaudu võtab see 2,5 kuni 3 tundi, kuid läbib kaunist rannikumaastikku, sealhulgas Primošten ja Rogoznitsad. Kiirtee valik on soovitatav mugavaks pikamaajalaks sõiduks.

Plitvice Lakes National Park is 130 km from our Zadar Downtown office, approximately 1 hour 30 minutes by car on the A1 motorway. It is one of the most popular day trips from Zadar and the most common reason visitors choose to rent a car in the city center rather than rely on organised tours. Depart by 07:30 to beat the midday coach tours from Zagreb and Split.

Yes! All our vehicles are ferry-ready. The Gaženica ferry port is just 1 km from our Zadar Downtown office (3-minute drive). Jadrolinija operates daily car ferries to Ugljan (Preko), Pašman, and Dugi Otok (Brbinj — gateway to Saharun beach and Telašćica Nature Park). Book your ferry ticket separately at jadrolinija.hr — no extra rental fee applies for island travel within Croatia.

Yes — Pag is one of the easiest islands to reach by car because the Pag Bridge connects it directly to the mainland. Novalja (the main town for Zrće Beach nightlife) is 85 km / 1 hour 15 minutes from our Zadar Downtown office via the D106 and D25. No ferry is needed. In summer, expect slower traffic on the last stretch after the bridge; in July–August, depart before 09:00 or after 16:00 to avoid congestion.

Paklenica National Park (Starigrad entrance) is 48 km north of Zadar, about a 45-minute drive on the D8 coastal road. The park is a favourite for hiking and rock-climbing — Anića Kuk is one of Europe's most famous big-wall climbing sites. Parking at the park entrance costs ~€5/day in summer. A compact or SUV car is fine; the access road is paved all the way to the Large Paklenica canyon trailhead.

Absolutely — Nin is only 17 km from our Zadar office (25 minutes). It's the oldest royal Croatian town, famous for Queen's Beach (sandy, shallow, ideal for kids), the iconic little Church of the Holy Cross, and the Nin salt flats where you can buy artisanal flower-of-salt straight from the producer. Parking is free or very low cost year-round.

The A1 motorway covers the 165 km in about 1 hour 40 minutes with a toll of roughly €10 for a Category 1 car. The D8 coastal (Adriatic) road takes 2 hours 45 minutes but is far more scenic — passing Primošten and Rogoznica. Most renters pick the A1 outbound (save time) and the D8 on the return (enjoy the coast). Tolls can be paid by credit/debit card or cash at the toll booths.

Croatia legally requires winter tyres from 15 November to 15 April on mountain routes inland, including the A1 between Zadar and Zagreb when signs are posted. All Avax Zadar vehicles are fitted with compliant winter tyres during this period at no extra charge. If you plan to drive to Plitvice or Zagreb in winter, also pack a warm jacket — temperatures inland can be 10–15 °C colder than on the coast.

Street parking in Zadar Old Town is limited and metered (Zone 1: ~€1.50/hour). We recommend the Jazine or Voštar parking garages on the peninsula edge — both are a 2-minute walk from the Sea Organ and St. Donatus Church. A compact car (like our Economy category) is ideal for navigating the narrow streets around the Old Town walls.

Yes — Avax operates across Croatia, so one-way rentals are supported. Common routes: Zadar → Zadar Airport (no one-way fee on most plans), Zadar → Split (€40 one-way fee), Zadar → Dubrovnik (€90 one-way fee, drop at Downtown or Airport), Zadar → Zagreb Airport (€75 one-way fee). Select the drop-off location during Step 1 of booking to see the exact fee for your dates.
