• Swimwear and towel are not mandatory but bring them if you wish to swim in Zrmanja river. If you have them, bring swim shoes, but they are not necessary for the swim. Bring sun screen and hat/cap if you are sensitive to sun. Bring you own food and drinks, but we also stop at a bakery on the way out of Zadar, so you can also count to get your food there.
