Adriatic sunsets wowed a Hollywood legend
Walking along the Zadar shoreline before nightfall from Foa to the remarkable modern installations, the Sea Organ and the Greeting to the Sun, provides an unparalleled experience of the world's most spectacular sunset. Feeling Zadar is experiencing it with all of your senses. It entails strolling through the towering witnesses of its ancient history and the ruins of time, as well as absorbing its day and night rhythms amid the small side-alleys and expansive squares. Then unwind at one of the numerous colorful cafés, soaking up the Mediterranean and Dalmatian relaxed moods. Zadar, though, is much more than that.
Perfect and crystal-clear saltwater, whose addictive salinity is an endless and vital source of life's vitality, is softly blended with Foa and its UNESCO World Heritage Site town walls. When a gentle breeze from the south or a rosemary-soap like scented and delightful summer landward wind blows up, the soaked shore softly sings in its honor, reflecting the sun's shine on the surface of the water.
While the Sea Organ, a well-known stepped installation on the beach, plays to the beat of that undulating ecstasy, the astronomical and calendar Greeting to the Sun dances with its light, greeting tourists and those who gaze in envy at this remarkable sight. Zadar has a history dating back at least three thousand years. An Adriatic jewel whose name does not fade with time, and whose popularity was increased by Alfred Hitchcock, who appreciated the most magnificent sunset in the world while blowing off the smoke from his Habanos from the Zadar shoreline.
