Another Record Breaking Cruise Season at Zadar Cruise Port
With 37 different ships from 22 prestigious cruise lines scheduled to call at Zadar Cruise Port in 2025, the port continues to strengthen its reputation as a premier destination on the Adriatic Coast. This year, Zadar Cruise Port is expected to welcome approximately 270,000 passengers and over 100,000 crew members – a 27% increase in passenger traffic and a 12% rise in cruise calls compared to the previous season.
This remarkable growth is a testament not only to the port’s location appeal but also to its ongoing commitment to providing outstanding customer service and enhancing the overall guest experience.
A recent addition to the terminal includes two impressive, life-size city map installations. These maps are courtesy of Zadar Tourist Board and they are designed to help guests make the most of their visit by highlighting key monuments, UNESCO World Heritage sites, and top-rated local restaurants and bars. Several mindfully curated walking routes are the main feature of the map. The walking routes are tailored to various interests and walking capacities, ensuring visitors can explore Zadar’s historic old town in a way that suits them best.
Continuous efforts to enhance the terminal experience and provide meaningful ways for guests to explore the magical city of Zadar are clearly reflected in the port’s consistent growth. All signs point to 2025 being yet another record-breaking year.
