Welcome to Zaton
Zaton hugs a quiet bay on the Adriatic coast, where you can kayak along calm inlets, cycle shaded coastal paths, and watch the sun drop behind the Dalmatian islands. The old village sits alongside a large resort zone that draws families from across Croatia and beyond. Resorts in Zaton give direct access to the bay and close proximity to Zadar, making it a practical and relaxed base for the Croatian coast.

Our search engine is your secret weapon for finding flight deals. The good news? It's just as awesome at hunting down great rates on resorts. These tips are your shortcut to saving on your stay.
Book in advance
Book early if you can. Getting things locked in sooner usually means better prices and more resorts to choose from, especially during busy travel seasons.
...Or bag a last-minute Zaton resort deal
It generally gets more expensive as your travel dates get closer. But in off-peak season, last-minute offers can still be found when resorts have rooms to fill.
Flexible on dates? Say hello to better rates
If your dates aren't set in stone, compare different months or seasons to discover cheap resorts in Zaton. Midweek stays are often easier on the pocket than weekends, so even small shifts can make a real difference.
Go all-inclusive
If you plan to spend the majority of your time on site, all-inclusive resorts in Zaton are a good option. Activities, meals and drinks are bundled into the room rate, which can take the guesswork out of budgeting. Check if these types of stays are available before booking.
Show discounted resorts only

When to visit Zaton
High and low season in Zaton
Summer is peak season in Zaton, running roughly from June through August. Warm, dry weather makes it ideal for beach days and time on the water, and the area draws steady visitor numbers during this period. Accommodation fills up quickly, so booking your stay well in advance is the smart move, especially for July and August.
Visiting outside of summer means fewer people and a more relaxed experience overall. Prices tend to be lower, and you'll find it easier to secure accommodation without planning too far ahead. The trade-off is that some local services and facilities may operate on reduced schedules or close entirely in the off-season.
Zaton is a smaller destination, and specific event details can be hard to confirm from outside the area. The broader Zadar County region hosts cultural and community events across the warmer months, so checking with local tourism offices or your accommodation before your trip is a practical way to find out what's on.
