Sunsets in Zadar

I have to confess that before I planned my Croatia trip, I don’t think I’d heard of Zadar but after Split and Dubrovnik, Zadar had a really chilled, resort feel. It seemed to be aimed more at holidaymakers than...

Lenny June 25, 2017 Cruise, Dubrovnik, Mljet Leave a Comment 1807 Views
