About this tour
This session walks the quay at Foša, an old fishing harbour just outside Zadar's city walls, as the evening catch comes in. You see the working side of the harbour first, then the row of seafood restaurants facing the water with their boards changing by season. It is a working corner of the city rather than a staged one.
We start on the quay with a sound check, then move along the restaurant row for the second stop, taking questions about what is in season that week. I send a short list of names once the call ends.
It suits anyone who wants to understand where Zadar's seafood actually comes from before eating any of it. It also suits an early evening booking, when the boats are most likely to be in.
Included
- Live video session with a local guide
- A close look at the dishes and where locals buy them
- A short list of places and dishes to try later
Not included
- Food and drinks shown on camera
- Travel to the city

The camera follows the small harbour just outside the city walls, and I explain how a few boats still bring their catch in here each day.

We pass the row of seafood restaurants facing the water, and I point out what is typically on the board depending on the season.
-
Your questions 9 min
Time to ask anything about Zadar: prices, safety, food, or whatever you are curious about.
-
A short list to keep 4 min
Before you go, the guide sums up with a few things worth remembering: a dish to try: Maraschino liqueur and Borik, worth a slower look.
Good to know
- A stable wifi or mobile connection makes the picture smoother than a shaky one.
- Any phone, tablet or laptop with a camera works. You watch, the guide does the walking.
- Times are shown in Zagreb time, so check the time where you are before you book.
- The session is not recorded, and recording it yourself is not allowed. Feel free to take your own notes.
- Ask questions any time, out loud or in the chat. The guide will pause to answer.
- Sessions run in small groups, up to 9 people, so there is room for everyone to ask something.
Questions about this tour
What will the session cover?
The guide walks through Zadar, showing you The quay at Foša and Along the restaurants live on camera, plus whatever else you would like to see.
What happens if my connection drops?
Rejoin with the same link within a few minutes and the guide will catch you up on anything you missed.
Can I ask the guide questions during the session, or is it a fixed script?
Anything, any time. Sessions leave room for your own questions throughout, not just at the end.
Do I need to buy or cook anything?
No. This is a conversation: the guide describes the dishes and where to find them, so you can try them yourself whenever suits you.
How it works
- You get one join link after booking.
- Join from any device: phone, tablet or laptop.
