This theme park offers tons of fun and spectacular entertainment for the whole family in the very heart of the Adriatic Coast. Visitors can choose their adventure from one of the three adrenaline ride themes based on the concepts of space, pirates and the Wild West respectively.

    Family Resorts

    An active holiday for the entire family!

    If you visit one of these places, your family holiday will never be boring or predictable! 

    What distinguishes family resorts from other types of accommodation is the positive energy that they radiate, as they make all guests feel like part of one big family. In addition, family resorts offer first-class entertainment, tasty food and superior services.
    Local family resorts such as Zaton Resort, Šimuni Camping, Crvena Luka or Falkensteiner Family Hotel Diadora have been designed and organised to fulfil all the wishes of their guests, and particularly those of their children, as the satisfaction of children is what defines a family vacation. However, adults won’t feel neglected either, as family resorts offer entertainment for all ages. If you’re looking to spend your holidays somewhere more exotic, yet wish to have all of the commodities that you need at your disposal, accommodation in the Polynesian-style straw huts at Pine Beach is the perfect choice for you! Pine Beach boasts a kilometre-long beach, and what’s more this beach is located in a large pine forest

    The Museum of Illusions offers interactive and entertaining experiences for kids, parents, couples and grandparents alike, which makes it the perfect place where people of all ages can have an unusual and exciting time.

    Families Are Always Welcome

    Only the best for your family!

    When you want to get better acquainted with the place that you are visiting, people are what counts the most.

    Renting an apartment from the locals is a great accommodation choice, as the people of the Zadar County have a long tradition in welcoming visitors to their homes and taking care of all of their needs. This exceptional custom of turning private homes into accommodation facilities offers you the opportunity to get even better acquainted with the locals and learn more about the region that you are visiting.   The owners of real properties are usually pleasant people who will do everything in their power to make your holiday an unforgettable one.  They will be very happy to welcome you to their homes so that they can share their authentic lifestyles with you, and this is one of the main reasons that guests from all over the world return to the islands, coast and urban and rural parts of the Zadar region. 
    Many of them have adapted their properties in order to accommodate families with children, and we have grouped such hosts under the category   "Welcome - Family".

    Sandy Beaches

    Beaches for a perfect time!

    Summer holidays cannot be imagined without beaches, as they are a place that kids and adults enjoy equally.

    Regardless of whether you prefer secluded and quiet private beaches or are looking for a popular and dynamic spot to enjoy the crystal-clear waters, the Zadar region is always a fantastic place to visit. 
    Although most of the beaches on the Croatian coast are pebbled or rocky, the Zadar region also offers many sandy beaches, such as those in the camp Ninska laguna where, thanks to the shallow and warm waters, you can play in the sand for hours. The healing properties of its famous medicinal mud are also a true wonder of nature. In the vicinity of the settlement of Zaton, there are some long, mostly sandy beaches, and the one in Zaton Resort is definitely one of the finest in Croatia. It is perfect for families with small children, but also for teenagers and adults, who can choose between a variety of fun activities and sports amenities. 
    Among the many beautiful beaches on the islands of the Zadar region, Sakarun Beach on the island of Dugi otok is one of the most popular. This long beach distinguishes itself with its sand and turquoise waters.
