About Renting a Car at Šibenik Center
Šibenik is one of Dalmatia's oldest cities, with the UNESCO-listed Cathedral of St. James as its crown jewel, located at the Krka River where it meets the Adriatic Sea. Rent a car in Šibenik center and reach Krka National Park in just 15 km (20 minutes) or the Kornati Archipelago via Vodice port 12 km to the north.
Three rental companies are available in the city center. Šibenik center lies along Obala prvoboraca by the harbor, with medieval streets climbing the hills behind. Road D8 (Adriatic Highway) connects the city with Split (85 km to the south) and Zadar (80 km to the north).
Parking is available at the Baldachin Hall and by the harbor promenade. Park your rental car outside the old town and explore on foot - the medieval alleys are too narrow for cars. Drive to Skradin village center (14 km) and take a boat from there to Krka Falls to avoid crowds.
Book a rental SUV or crossover if you plan to visit the unmarked roads on Murter Island. How close are the rental stations to Šibenik center? All three companies are located within 1 km of the harbor promenade and cathedral, mostly along the main road into the city.
