The closest store to Sunwell apartments<\/strong> is Studenac – Lito<\/em>.<\/p>\nIt is a small grocery store, where you can buy all the basic groceries. Great for short walk from Sunwell.<\/p>\n
It is only open during July and August.<\/p>\n
Also, in front of the store during morning hours (July and August) you can find a stand with fresh locally grown fruits and vegetables. We recommend buying there in comparison to fruit and vegetables from the store.<\/p>\n

Next to the store is a caf\u00e9 bar, owned by same owner, also open all year round.<\/p>\n
Nice owner and his family members, who are locals, are always available if you need anything from the store.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
Next to the \u201cMarket Gajac\u201d, there is also a bakery with fresh bread and pastries baked on the site, which is a big plus.<\/p>\n
Also, during the summer months, in the morning hours on the main square in Gajac, you can find a stand with fresh fruit and vegetables from the Zadar area.<\/p>\n
We recommend it, although you might pay a few cents or euros more than in the shops or supermarkets. Most of the fruit and vegetables offered at the stand are home-grown from local farms. You can see the location here.<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/sunwell-apartments.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/supermarket-7357419_1280-fotor-20250129122443.jpg\")

We think you will find what you are looking for.<\/p>\n
