Zagreb Travel Guide
Croatia
Zagreb is Croatia’s capital and largest city, with a population of 684,114. It sits inland in northern Croatia, making it a practical base for exploring the country rather than a seaside destination.
Most international visitors arrive through Zagreb International Airport (ZAG), the city’s listed airport. There are no notable named beaches within 40 kilometres of Zagreb, so plan a separate journey if you want time on Croatia’s coast.
