Camping and mobile home rental on the Croatian islands
There are more than 100 campsites on the Croatian islands, which are very different from one another.
Kvarner and northern Dalmatia in particular have some excellent campsites that are among the very top of European campsites. Popular campsites among Slovenians are Kovačine on the island of Cres, Čikat on Lošinj, San Marino and Padova on Rab, Straško and Šimuni on Pag - those are among the larger campsites with a wide range of additional facilities.
In central and southern Dalmatia, there are many smaller campsites on the islands, which offer a more peaceful camping experience, with beautiful beaches and clear sea. For example, Bunja on the island of Brač is one of the most modern campsites, and there are also popular campsites around Jelsa on Hvar, such as Holiday, Grebišče, Mina and smaller family-run campsites on Korčula.
Many campsites on the islands also offer mobile home rentals, which attract guests who don't usually choose camping holidays. Mobile homes are air-conditioned, have their own kitchen, bathroom, terrace and many allow pets, so you can take your dog with you on holiday. You can easily see prices for renting a mobile home at My-mobilehome.com.

Croatia: Ferry Timetable 2025
Almost all islands in Croatia are served by Jadrolinija ferries, only the Stinica - Mišnjak ferry line to the island of Rab is operated by the local company Rapska plovidba.
Many people don't know that Kvarner and Dalmatia are connected by a ferry that runs between Mali Losinj and Zadar. In high season, the ferry leaves Zadar every day at 9:00 and takes just over 6 hours, with stops on the islands of Ist, Olib, Silba and Premuda. From Mali Losinj, the ferry departs at 16:30.
Looking at the updates in the timetable of Croatian ferries, there are only a few minor changes and adjustments to the ferry timetables compared to last season, e.g. on the routes to the islands of Rab, Pag, Brac and Korcula.
Ferry prices unchanged, main season on some routes extended
Ferry fares in Croatia have not increased this year, at least so far.
On most ferry lines, the price list is still divided into low season with lower ferry fares, which this year applies to the periods 1.1 - 29.5 & 29.9 - 31.12, when ferry fares are 20% lower compared to the main season (prices for both seasons are published in the price list).
On the ferry line to the island of Cres, Valbiska - Merag, which has been running more frequently since January, the same price list will apply throughout the year, while on the other line Brestova - Porozina, the higher prices will only apply in the main season from 30.5. to 28.9.
On the ferry line to the island of Brac, Split - Supetar, the main season runs from 14.4. to 26.10. on the ferry to Rab, Stinica - Misnjak, it runs from 1.5. to 20.9.
Price comparison of some ferry tickets for 2 persons and a car of up to 5 m in the main season 2025 (one way)

The Jadrolinija mobile app allows you to buy ferry tickets and, on longer lines, to book your ride in advance
Several years ago, Jadrolinija launched a mobile app that allows you to buy ferry tickets quickly. The Jadrolinija app can be downloaded at the following links: Google Play and App Store.
It is advisable to buy a ticket in advance for longer ferry routes, as the purchase is considered as a reservation of your spot on the ferry. However, passengers must be at the port at least 45 minutes before the ferry departs - in high season it is recommended to arrive at least 60 minutes earlier.
Ferry bookings can be arranged for the ferry lines listed below by purchasing a ticket online in advance. As more and more people have been buying ferry tickets this way in recent years, it is almost essential to book a ferry ticket in advance for these islands, at least during the high season:
- for the island of Rab (Valbiska - Lopar)
- for the island of Losinj (Zadar - Mali Lošinj line)
- for the island of Dugi otok (line Zadar - Brbinj)
- for the island of Brac (line Makarska - Sumartin)
- for the island of Hvar (line Split - Stari Grad)
- for the island of Solta (line Split - Rogač)
- for the island of Vis (line Split - Vis)
- for the island of Korčula and Lastovo (line Split - Vela Luka - Ubli).
After purchasing the ferry ticket, just show it via your mobile phone when boarding the ferry and avoid stopping at the ticket office.
Additional information when purchasing ferry tickets in advance - if you purchased a ticket on a route where reservations are not needed, then you can travel with the purchased ticket within the whole day, which comes handy e.g. in case of traffic jams on the road. However, if you bought a ticket on a route where reservations are mandatory, then you have a spot reserved for a specific time slot. In case of a delay, you will have to cancel the ferry ticket (10% of the price will be charged) and then buy a new one.
Information about ferry transport for bikes and dogs
Many campers also take their bikes on holiday, so we checked with Jadrolinija about bikes attached to a vehicle on a ferry and the price of such transport. If you attach your bikes to the roof of the vehicle, this does not affect the price of the ferry and the standard vehicle height is still valid. However, if you have a bike rack at the back of the vehicle on a towbar and you exceed the length of e.g. 5m, then a higher price will be charged.
As for dogs on ferries in Croatia, they travel free of charge, but they are not allowed in the interior of the ferry, and care must be taken to ensure that they do not pose any danger to the other passengers.
