Dubrovnik to Zadar via Ston and Šibenik
Zadar is a long way from Dubrovnik, around five hours of driving. Splitting the day with two stops makes it much easier, especially if you are travelling with children.
The morning stop is in Ston. In the afternoon we break the journey in Šibenik before the last hour to Zadar.
