Croatia holidays get an A+ in every category, whether you want to brush up on history, wear in your walking boots or just recharge your batteries by the beach.
An Adriatic all-rounder
Family holidays on the beach. Island-hopping by boat. City breaks packed with historic sights. There’s not much Croatia can’t do. It’s no wonder this Eastern European country has risen in the popularity stakes so quickly in recent years, drawing in everyone from Game of Thrones fans to the Made in Chelsea posse.
City sights in Dubrovnik and Pula
As Croatia’s poster boy, Dubrovnik’s certainly got looks on its side. Centuries-old fortress walls frame the old town like a gift box. And within them, you’ll find a treasure trove of dainty market squares, regal palaces and relic-filled museums – not to mention a generous sprinkling of bars and restaurants. Over in Pula, it’s all eyes on the amphitheatre, which looks just like Rome’s famous Colosseum.
A shining shoreline
If it’s a beach holiday you’re after, Croatia’s got a corker of a coastline. The waters here are among the clearest in Europe, making it an ideal diving destination. And, many fly the sought-after Blue Flag, too. Explore off-shore and you might spot pods of dolphins around the island of Cres, near Rabac. Or, from Dubrovnik, you can set out on a day cruise around the picture-perfect, pine-blanketed Elaphite Islands.

Istrian Riviera
Thanks to an unspoilt shoreline, national parks, and hilltop villages that have avoided the march of tourism, holidays to the Istrian Riviera are as organic as they get.
