KAYAK’s top tips for hiring a car in Šibenik

  • Choosing car hire in Šibenik offers numerous advantages, including the freedom to explore the city and its surroundings at your own pace. While public transport options like buses and ferries are available, having a car allows easy access to nearby attractions such as Krka National Park or the picturesque town of Primosten. Major car hire companies like Hertz, Avis, and Budget operate in Šibenik. With car hire in Šibenik, you can conveniently visit remote locations and enjoy the scenic beauty of the Dalmatian Coast.
  • The nearest major airport serving Šibenik is Split Airport (SPU). If you are getting car hire in Šibenik directly from the airport, you'll find the car hire desks located inside the Arrivals Terminal. No airport shuttle is required as the offices are easily accessible when you arrive. Popular car hire companies at Šibenik Airport include Europcar, Sixt, and Enterprise. The car park, where you pick-up your car, is conveniently located adjacent to the terminal, and the hire car collection point is on the far left of the car park.
  • When driving in Šibenik, be aware of pedestrians and cyclists, as they are common on the city streets. Some of the most popular streets include the main promenade, Obala Dr Franje Tuđmana. This scenic waterfront street is a favourite spot for leisurely walks and bike rides. The road system in Croatia is generally well-maintained, offering smooth driving conditions. However, some disadvantages in Šibenik include narrow streets in the old town, which may require careful navigation. One such street is Kninska ulica, a charming cobblestone road that winds through the heart of the historic centre.
  • Rush hour in Šibenik typically occurs between 7:30 and 9:00, and between 16:30 and 18:00. During these times, expect increased traffic and delays on major routes like Šibenski Most and Draga. Additionally, driving can be challenging in winter due to possible snowy or icy conditions on mountain roads leading to popular destinations like the Krka National Park. Winter in Šibenik typically occurs from December to February. During this period, the region experiences cooler temperatures, occasional rainfall, and the possibility of snow or icy conditions.
  • Book your car hire in Šibenik at least 1 day before your trip in order to get a below-average price
  • Compact hire cars in Šibenik are around 20% more expensive than other car types, on average

Additionally, if you plan to explore scenic coastal roads, a convertible car would enhance your experience. However, if you intend to venture into mountainous regions, an SUV with good handling capabilities is advisable. The winding roads leading to Krka National Park, for example, require a vehicle that can handle the terrain.

  • Where are the best places to park in Šibenik?

    Once you have booked a car hire in Šibenik, be aware that parking options are available throughout the city. In the city centre, parking zones require payment. The cost of parking typically ranges from 0.70 to 1.30 EUR per hour (around 0.60 to 1.20 GBP). For more affordable parking, consider areas outside the city centre, such as the Vidici or Stari Pazar car parks, which offer lower rates. Additionally, some accommodations may provide private parking spaces, so it's worth checking with your hotel or rental property for parking availability.

The customer service at Sixt in Croatia is excellent! I visited two locations (one in Zagreb and the other in Sibenik) and both people were very friendly and helpful. At one point, I missed my bus and the agent called a taxi for me (which ended up being cheaper than renting another car for a day). I appreciated the help and the honesty. Highly recommended!
