Zadar. Two wheels. No limits.

A small rental at the old town gate

ATOM Rent a Scooter is run by Almo Šarin at Vrata Sv. Krševana in Zadar. No call centre, no franchise, no queue — just a handful of well-kept scooters and someone who actually knows the roads you are about to ride.

Why we do it this way

ATOM started with a simple observation: renting a scooter on holiday was far more complicated than it needed to be. Deposits of several hundred euro blocked on a card. Helmets charged as an extra. Kilometre limits buried in the terms. Half an hour of paperwork while the best part of the day disappeared.

So we built the opposite. No deposit at all. Two helmets with every scooter, because almost nobody rides alone on holiday. Insurance in the price rather than as a scare tactic at the counter. And 200 kilometres a day, which is enough to reach Pag, Krka or the Paklenica canyons and still be back for the sunset at the Sea Organ.

We keep the fleet small on purpose. Every Vespa and every Yamaha is serviced in our own workshop, checked before each rental and replaced long before it gets tired. That is easier to promise when you own six scooters than when you run sixty.

  • One contact person, start to finish
  • Every scooter serviced in-house and checked before each rental
  • Clear prices — no deposit, no booking fee, no hidden extras
  • Local route advice from someone who rides these roads

How we work

Four things we do not compromise on

Honest prices

The price you are quoted is the price you pay. Extra kilometres are the only variable, and they are €0.20 — written down before you leave.

Scooters we would ride ourselves

Tyres, brakes, lights and oil are checked before every handover. If something is not right, the scooter does not go out.

Time respected

Handover takes about ten minutes. You are on holiday — you should be on the coast road, not at a counter.

Reachable when it matters

If anything happens out on the road, you call the same number you booked on and you get us, not a hotline.

Zadar, the way it is meant to be seen

A scooter beats a car here

Zadar is a peninsula of narrow lanes and a coast that keeps going. On two wheels you park anywhere, you feel the sea air, and you reach places a rental car never will.

Park anywhere

No circling the old town looking for a space. Scooter parking is everywhere and mostly free.

Fuel for pocket change

A 125 uses roughly 2.5 litres per 100 km. A full day on the coast costs you about one coffee and a sandwich.

The coast road, properly

The Jadranska magistrala with the sea on one side and Velebit on the other — this is a road you want to feel, not watch through glass.

Local advice included

We tell you which beach is empty on a Tuesday and which road is worth the detour. That part is free.

Where to find us

The Sea Gate, Zadar old town

Vrata Sv. Krševana — the Sea Gate, Porta Marina — is one of the Venetian gates in Zadar's old town walls, part of the UNESCO-listed Venetian defence works. It is where passengers coming off the boats walk into the old town: a couple of minutes from the city market, a short walk from the Roman forum, St. Donatus and the Sea Organ. Arrive on foot, leave on two wheels.

Staying outside the centre? We deliver the scooter to your hotel or apartment anywhere in Zadar for €15 and collect it again at the end.
200 km a day — here is what that buys you

Day trips from our door

All distances are one way from Zadar old town. Every single one of these fits comfortably inside your daily allowance — there and back.

9km Bibinje

The easiest win: a quiet fishing village strung along the shore with small pebble coves.

12km Petrčane

Pine-shaded peninsula with little beaches, straight up the old coast road.

15km Zaton

A long shallow bay with warm, calm water — the easy family stop before Nin.

17km Nin

Croatia's oldest royal town on its own island, plus the famous healing-mud lagoon.

27km Privlaka

A sandy spit at the end of the Nin peninsula. Shallow water and the best sunsets near Zadar.

30km Vir

An island you ride onto over a bridge — no ferry, no timetable, no queue.

42km Vrana Lake

Croatia's largest lake and a bird reserve. Flat roads, almost no traffic, big views from Kamenjak.

47km Starigrad-Paklenica

Velebit on one side, the Adriatic on the other. The best piece of road anywhere near Zadar.

55km Pag Island

Over the bridge into a lunar limestone landscape, then the old salt town. Unlike anywhere else in Croatia.

80km Krka National Park

The Skradinski buk waterfalls. The longest trip on this list — doable in a day, but start early.
