Croatia Summer Holidays

With its emerald ocean and gorgeous golden beaches, Croatia is a superb summer destination. Kick off your trip with a visit to the seaside city of Dubrovnik. The famous white city wall that surrounds the Old Town is an essential pitstop on your Croatia summer holidays, but it’s a site that undoubtedly draws the masses. The best time to visit? At sunset, when the sun and the crowds have died down. Camera in hand, find a quiet spot to soak up the views over the terracotta rooftops, soaring towers, quaint houses and beautiful churches on one side and the sparkling Adriatic on the other.

If it’s culture you’re after, you’ll find heaps of it in Croatia. Delve into the country's rich history as you explore the city's old towns where you’ll find a monument (or three) at every turn and don't miss a visit to the UNESCO-listed Diocletian’s Palace in the heart of Split. After plenty of city strolling, it's time for a hit of nature. Head to Plitvice Lakes National Park to marvel at its colourful pools and cascading waterfalls while wandering along its boardwalks. The island-speckled coastline is another draw of Croatia summer holidays, and each islet lends itself perfectly to balmy beach days.
