Zadar weather reviews
Tatiana,
May 2023
At least several times a year we try to travel with our boyfriend. We were in the city of Zadar in May last year. One day there was heavy rain and quite gusty winds from the Adriatic coast. But during the entire rest period it was quite warm. The sea, of course, is still a little cold for swimming and for a seaside holiday it is better to go to Croatia in the middle or at the end of summer. But May is good for visiting excursions and sightseeing.
