Discover Zadar Diving Board: 3, 5 & 10 m Jumps at Kolovare

The Zadar diving board at Kolovare beach is one of the city's landmarks and one of the best things to do in Zadar on a hot day. It's free, open to everyone and only a short walk from the old town.

The tower has platforms at 3, 5 and 10 m, so you can start low and work your way up. Below, the clear Adriatic water is great for snorkeling and a refreshing swim between jumps.

At night the board is lit up, which makes it perfect if you want to stay a bit longer. Right next to it there's a public pool filled with seawater. Pack your goggles and send it!
