Croatia has quickly grown Europe’s hottest destination, and for strong reason. The rocky coastline goes on for 1778 kilometres and includes pine-fringed coves, wide sandy beaches and cosy inlets. As if that weren’t enough, there are a superb 1185 islands that go from rich and forested to stark and rocky. Yachters enjoy the sailing opportunities, sunbathers have an incredible choice of beaches and scuba divers have a paradise of sea life to explore.
And So, what to see first? Following is my private listing of highlights for a Croatian visit:
• Dubrovnik
Byron named it the “Pearl of the Adriatic” for the impressive curtain of palisades surrounding a city made-up in marble and strewn with Renaissance sculpture.
• Hvar Town
In plus to the splendid harbor promenade and sculptured facades, it’s growing famous for the greatest nightlife on the Adriatic.
• Korcula Town
It resembles Hvar in numerous ways, particularly the narrow cluster of streets, but it lies on a narrow peninsula and is quieter.
• Rovinj
Istria’s prettiest little town, it retains the flavour of a traditional fishing port despite the large inflow of tourists in past years.
• Plitvice Lakes National Park
It has to be witnessed to be believed. The 16 turquoise lakes appear to glow and there are waterfalls everywhere. It’s a UNESCO world heritage site.
• Brela Beach
The pleasant coves, framed with pine trees, stretch like a long necklace of beaches. Forbes magazine recently named it one of the top twenty beaches in the world.
