The town of Biograd na Moru is located 30 km south of Zadar and is a local commercial, transport and nautical center. The coastal part where the town of Biograd is located is the most articulated part of the Adriatic coast. Thus, the city with the Bošana bay in the north, and the Soline bay in the south and the small islands of Planac and Sveta Katarina in front of it has become a very popular destination for the nautical tourism. The Adriatic highway passes through Biograd, the city has a bus station and there is the ferry port for the island of Pašman.
