Camping Zaton Holiday Resort ****
General information
A family paradise on the Croatian coast
Sun, sea and swimming pools: this campsite on the Croatian coast is for those who enjoy life. The swimming pool complex at Zaton Holiday Resort campsite is one of the largest on the Adriatic coast. With a water playground and various pools, young and old can enjoy the water here. It is only a few steps from the swimming pools to the beach, where you can lay on the sand or swim in the Adriatic Sea. There is plenty to do at the campsite: from horse riding to tennis, from shopping to windsurfing. Get ready for a luxury beach holiday in Croatia.Beach holiday right by the Adriatic Sea
This campsite is right by the Adriatic Sea. Here, you have a holiday on the Croatian coast, at 15 km from the town of Zadar. With 1 1/2 kilometres of sandy and pebble beach, it's a wonderful place for sunbathing. And the clear blue Adriatic Sea calls out for a swim! Water sports enthusiasts can go to the water sports centre for diving lessons or a windsurfing adventure. The kids will not believe their eyes when they see the inflatable park in the sea.Swimming pool complex by the sea
You can choose: swimming in one of the pools or in the Adriatic Sea. This campsite's aqua park is right by the sea. The youngest swimmers will choose the swimming pool complex and not only for the paddling pool but also for the large water climbing frame. They can also run through the sprinklers in the water playground. You can relax in the large pool or in the raised baths.Busy days
Horse riding lessons today (a special ride on the beach!), and an archery class tomorrow. The children can learn something new every day at this campsite. And with the entertainment team, there is no chance they will get bored. There are also fun things to do together at the Zaton Holiday Resort campsite. You can have a game of football or play miniature golf on the lovely golf course, for example. The large tennis court complex is there for those who fancy a swing of the racket. End your day with a musical performance or spectacular show at the open-air theatre. If your teenagers would like a night out, they are in luck. The Saturnus dance hall is a 15-minute walk from the campsite.Shopping street to the beach
You could have a stylish dinner with regional Croatian dishes and a nice glass of wine. Or a pizza and then ice cream for dessert. It's up to you. The campsite has a lovely shopping street that goes right to the beach. There you will find restaurants and a large supermarket.Culture and countryside in Croatia
The campsite organises a range of excursions, including to the old city of Zadar with its ancient cathedrals and wonderful location by the sea. It is a great destination. Croatia also has lovely countryside. Go to the Plitvice Lakes National Park, with its large waterfalls. It's a two-hour drive but certainly worth your while. Or take a boat trip to see the Kornati islands: 140 islands in the Adriatic Sea.
