The old part of the City, located on a small peninsula, is an important historical town, rich with world renowned heritage which is visible at every step. Founded on a 3,000 year old tradition, the Zadar region has developed to the extent that today it covers 14% of the total land surface of the Republic of Croatia and around 12% of the territorial waters, with more than 300 smaller and larger islands, the latter of which is known as the Zadar archipelago. The region offers beaches with crystal clean water and other natural beauties such as nature parks, including Tela\u0161\u010dica at the Island of Dugi Otok, Lake Vrana and Mount Velebit, as well as the national parks of Kornati Islands, Paklenica and Krka waterfalls.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Currency<\/strong><br \/>\nCroatia hopes to join the euro in 2019, but until then the national currency is the kuna (kn)  with one kuna equaling 100 lipas (1 euro \u2248 7,50 kn). You can exchange money at any of the country\u2019s banks, foreign exchange offices, post offices and at almost all travel agencies, hotels and campsites. The majority of establishments and ATMs will also accept credit cards such as Visa, MasterCard, American Express and Diners, etc.<br \/>\n<strong><br \/>\nTravel Documents<\/strong><br \/>\nYour trip to Croatia doesn\u2019t mean visa headaches either. In most cases, the only form of ID required is a valid passport. And if you\u2019re an EU or US citizen, you can also use your national ID card.<br \/>\nCroatian customs regulations are almost entirely in harmony with EU standards.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Climate<\/strong><br \/>\nThe areas along the Adriatic coast have a pleasantly mild Mediterranean climate with a large number of sunny days, summers are hot and dry.<br \/>\nAverage temperatures in the Littoral (Adriatic Coast) are 22 to 25oC in July.
