Maritime connections from Ancona to Zadar or Split<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Almost all the ferries to Croatia<\/a> leave from Ancona (Marche Region) to cross the Adriatic Sea and land on the Dalmatian coast, in Zadar<\/strong> or in Split<\/strong>. The Croatian coast can only be reached by ship from Italy, and the port of Ancona, on the central Adriatic coast, is the first Italian port for international traffic of vehicles and passengers. The operating shipping companies are Jadrolinija<\/strong> and Snav<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n


Ancona – Zadar ferries<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The Marko Polo ferry of the Croatian shipping company Jadrolinija connects the Ancona port with the New Port<\/strong> of Gazenica, a suburb of Zadar, the coastal city in central Dalmatia. The Ancona \u279c Zadar<\/a> round trip (line 51), however, run only in summer<\/strong>, once or twice a week, and it has a travel time of nine hours<\/strong> when the ride is at night, eight hours<\/strong> during the day.<\/p>\n\n\n
