Zadar, Croatia
Zadar is one of the oldest continuously inhabited cities on the Adriatic, with a maritime tradition that predates the Roman era. Situated on the central Dalmatian coast, the city has been a crossroads for seafarers for over two millennia — and today it remains one of Croatia’s most important nautical hubs, home to a thriving charter fleet and busy commercial port.
Our training centre is located at Obala Kneza Trpimira 52, on the waterfront promenade overlooking the Zadar Channel. Zadar Airport offers direct connections to destinations across Europe, and the city sits midway on the coastal motorway between Rijeka (2h north) and Split (1.5h south), making it one of the most conveniently positioned training locations on the Croatian coast.
Outside the classroom, Zadar’s old town peninsula offers the famous Sea Organ, the Greeting to the Sun installation, Roman ruins, and a vibrant café culture — all within walking distance of the centre.
Why Train in Zadar?
Zadar offers our widest course selection with over 52 STCW and maritime programmes — the most comprehensive across all five centres.
The standout strength here is tanker training: 13 dedicated courses including Chemical Tanker Cargo and Ballast Handling for officers on chemical, oil, and gas carriers. Zadar also hosts our Maritime Cyber Security course, reflecting the growing importance of digital security in modern shipping operations.
Training Facilities in Zadar
Multiple dedicated classrooms with full AV capability support everything from single-day refreshers to multi-week certification programmes.
Navigation and bridge simulators include Transas Wartsila ECDIS and bridge simulation systems for realistic watchkeeping and passage planning scenarios.
