Moving around in Croatia - transportation
![]()
Thanks to the rather long coastline of the Adriatic Sea, there is a well developed sea link. Ferry services are very popular among tourists. At the height of the season, comfortable sightseeing liners also run. Most often, there are local rides that connect the coastal cities. There are also ferries which run only a few times a week. The city transport is composed of buses and trams. Passenger services compared to other European rates are not expensive. It is worth noting that there is a healthy competition among transport companies working in the country, such that the comfort of a trip on the bus for the same price can vary greatly.
