Given the many, many islands off the country’s coastline, it’s highly likely that you’ll be utilising ferries in Croatia when you visit the country. The main ferry company in Croatia is Jadrolinija, and they operate the vast majority of ferry and catamaran routes in Croatia, although other companies also exist – see a complete list below.
Ferries and catamarans sail the Adriatic connecting major ports with almost all of the inhabited islands all year round, with many routes having a higher frequency of sailings during the summer months.
Note: a famous (slow) ferry line that sailed down much of Croatia’s coast – connecting Rijeka with Split, Dubrovnik and some of the islands – that was run by Jadrolinija for 60 years – no longer operates.
