Come and be bedazzled in Zadar

Set on a small peninsula, charming Zadar boasts a historic old town of Roman ruins, medieval churches, cosmopolitan cafes, and top-rate museums. And while it's a popular vacation destination it's never crowded, even though its unique attraction—the sound-and-light spectacle of the Sea Organ and the Sun Salutation—need to be seen and heard to be believed. What's more, Zadar is much beloved by swimmers, sailors, and all other manner of sea-lovers. With Zadar vacation rentals, you're only a few clicks away from a vacation you'll never forget.

A light and sound show unlike any other

Zadar's most distinct attractions are the work of local architect Nikola Basic. The Sea Organ is a system of pipes and whistles set within stone stairs that descend into the sea. When the sea pushes air through it produces surreal sounds. The Sea Salutation is a 72-foot-wide circle filled with 300 multi-layered glass plates that collect the sun's energy during the day. Along with the wave energy that makes the Sea Organ's sound, it produces a spectacular light show from dusk till dawn.
