Croatia is becoming an increasingly popular holiday destination, and it is with little wonder. A wonderful location awaits the visitor and with a beautiful climate, both relaxing and active holidays are available. From the mountains along the Adriatic, to the bustling Dubrovnik, there are holidays in Croatia for anyone to enjoy.
In the Dalmatia region, on the south coast of Croatia, there are a host of wonderfully evocative medieval towns to journey around. Set nestling at the foothills of the rugged mountains, it is simply jaw droppingly beautiful.
The Dalmatian islands themselves makes for a fantastic sailing trip; hopping from one to another on the calm waters. Private villas can be rented on many of the islands too, and is really an escape from the world around you.
Amazing city breaks can also be had in the country; no more so than in the uber trendy Dubrovnik. An eclectic mix of the modern and the ancient; it is no wonder the city is UNESCO listed. A popular party spot, the atmosphere is young, lively and vibrant as the sun starts to set.
There is no shortage of UNESCO listed cities in Croatia, as Trogir and Split attain to. Also worthy of an extended visit is Zagreb, the medieval capital of the country, which retains much of its original character.
Croatia is popular for the sun seeker of course, and with amazing pebble beaches scattered across the Dalmatian coast, this is of no surprise. With fantastic resorts too, it is a top destination for many. If something more adventurous is required, the scuba diving region in the Adriatic is a must, whilst whitewater rafting and hiking are always good in the mountain regions.
Neighboring Italy, it is no wonder that Croatia has wonderful foods and wines, and this is no better showcased than in the northern town of Istria. Truffles and wines are the order of the day, to really have foodie holidays in Croatia that will be as rewarding as they are memorable.
