Zaton Holiday Resort Camping

Located on the sun-drenched Dalmatian coast near Zadar, Zaton Holiday Resort Camping offers one of Croatia’s most complete seaside camping experiences — combining Mediterranean nature, premium comfort, and resort-level facilities in one extraordinary destination. Set within fragrant pine forests and directly facing a stunning sandy bay, the campsite forms part of a large holiday resort designed for unforgettable family holidays, active escapes, and stylish glamping stays.

The camping area is spacious and beautifully landscaped, offering a wide selection of accommodation options including traditional camping pitches for tents, caravans, and motorhomes, fully equipped glamping pitches, and premium glamping villas set on generous plots of up to 300 m². Select units even feature private swimming pools, creating a rare blend of camping freedom and luxury holiday living.

One of the resort’s biggest highlights is its 1.5-kilometre sandy beach, unusual for Croatia and particularly appealing for families with children thanks to shallow water access. Direct beach access allows guests to move effortlessly between sea, relaxation, and activities throughout the day.

The facilities go far beyond a typical campsite. Guests enjoy access to two impressive swimming pool complexes, each offering approximately 2,500 m² of water surface, including family pools, relaxation areas, and sun terraces. Around the resort, you’ll find playgrounds, family zones, barbecue areas, workout spaces, and dedicated entertainment areas designed for all age groups.

Active travellers are especially well catered for. The large sports complex includes tennis courts, beach volleyball fields, football and basketball courts, mini-golf courses, a golf practice facility, and a scenic fitness trail. Daily animation programmes, themed workshops, and evening shows create a lively yet relaxed holiday atmosphere.

Food lovers will appreciate the diverse culinary scene across the resort — from beach bars and casual dining options to restaurants serving Mediterranean and international cuisine. A dedicated reception area, modern sanitary facilities, and premium guest services ensure a smooth, carefree stay.

Surrounded by pine trees, sea air, and endless activities, Zaton Holiday Resort Camping delivers a stylish escape where nature and comfort meet perfectly.

Zaton Holiday Resort Camping enjoys an exceptional location just outside the historic city of Zadar, approximately 15 km away, making it easy to combine beach relaxation with cultural exploration.

Zadar is famous for its Roman ruins, medieval streets, waterfront promenades, and unique attractions such as the Sea Organ and Sun Salutation installations. Restaurants, wine bars, cafés, and lively evening terraces create a vibrant Mediterranean atmosphere perfect for day trips or sunset dinners.

The charming village of Nin, only 3 km from the resort, is another must-visit destination. Known for its historic old town set on a small island, Nin offers sandy lagoons, traditional salt pans, family-friendly beaches, and authentic Dalmatian restaurants.

Nature lovers will find themselves ideally positioned for exploring Croatia’s most spectacular landscapes. Within driving distance are several protected areas, including Krka National Park (around 90 minutes away) and Plitvice Lakes National Park, famous for its turquoise lakes and waterfalls.

Closer to the campsite, cycling routes, walking paths, water sports centres, and boat excursions across the Zadar archipelago provide endless outdoor opportunities. Shops, bakeries, supermarkets, restaurants, and beach bars are easily accessible within minutes of the resort, ensuring everything needed for a relaxed holiday is always nearby.

Zaton Holiday Resort Camping is designed as a full-service holiday destination, meaning guests benefit from both campsite freedom and resort-style convenience. The property operates seasonally, with facilities and entertainment programmes expanding during the main summer months.

The campsite welcomes families, couples, and active travellers alike. Its extensive infrastructure makes it particularly suitable for longer stays, with spacious pitches allowing comfortable setups for motorhomes, caravans, and tent camping. Modern sanitary buildings maintain high hygiene standards and are distributed across the camping zones for easy access.

Thanks to the sandy beach and shallow water entry, the resort is especially family-friendly, while sports facilities and organised activities appeal to guests seeking an active holiday. Animation programmes run daily during high season, offering entertainment for children, teenagers, and adults alike.

Guests arriving by car benefit from straightforward road access and on-site parking areas. Cycling is a popular way to move around the resort and surrounding coastline. The nearby city of Zadar also provides ferry connections to islands, an international airport, and additional shopping opportunities.

Restaurants, bars, and supermarkets within the resort allow you to enjoy a completely self-contained holiday without needing to leave the property — although the surrounding Dalmatian region invites exploration at every turn.

Whether you choose a classic motorhome pitch, modern glamping accommodation, or a premium villa experience, Zaton Holiday Resort Camping offers the rare combination of nature, comfort, entertainment, and Mediterranean seaside charm — making it an ideal destination to book early for a truly memorable Croatian camping holiday.
