Based on hydrometeorological data, climate scenarios, and a participatory approach, the study assesses climate risks to tourism infrastructure, tourism services, and protected natural areas in Zadar County. The results indicate an increase in the level of climate risks under future climate conditions across all analysed areas, particularly in protected natural areas. In addition, the paper proposes adaptation measures to climate change and highlights the importance of systematic climate risk management in tourism, in line with the IPCC approach. The article was published as part of the internal scientific project of the Institute for Tourism, “Commitment”.
