Overview of intermodal liner passenger connections within Croatian seaports

Republic of Croatia is a coastal country with coastline length of 5, 835.3 km, with around 350 ports and small harbours located alongside the coast. Out of 718 islands around 50 of them are permanently inhabited. Enhancement of island accessibility in Croatia is necessary for better facilitation of tourism flows to/from and within tourist destinations as well as to ensure sustainability of Croatian islands. Sea connections and the quality of land connections are important for passengers and drivers arriving to and leaving the port. In order to increase the number of people using public transport it is important to make it more attractive by simplifying the transportation, e.g. by offering passengers one ticket for the entire trip even when using several transport modes, and by assuring integrated schedules of different transport modes to provide quick, qualitative, reliable and flexible transport service. This paper gives an overview of the intermodal liner passenger connections within Croatian seaports and the level of service that they provide.
