Zadar and Pag Island


With the continued heat and beautiful water we are eating our fair share of ice creams and doing plenty of swimming. The ice cream here is different to the Italian Gelato that the kids love, it is creamier with heaps of unusual flavours, yum, yum.

Zadar is a cute little town along the Adriatic coastline. The city centre is dotted with Roman and Venetian ruins with little white stone chapels.  The streets are full of vendors, many with religious paintings and crafts.

Most of the beaches are pebbles or stones; we have been swimming at different beaches each day. We did manage to find one sandy beach; this beach also had exfoliating mud that we had fun rubbing all over ourselves.

We made our way along Pag Island, the island is like a rocky desert with gorgeous coastline. We found the little town and wondered through the streets looking at the crafts and shops. There were a number of women making and selling a variety of crochet designs. We also brought some famous Pag sheep cheese for dinner that night.


We’ve had a relaxing and enjoyable time in Zadar.
