Kayak Around the Dubrovnik Old City Walls

Dubrovnik is now one of the most famous destinations on the planet, thanks to Game of Thrones. To see the city from a different perspective, hop in a kayak and make your way around the Old City walls, which tower over you from the water and give a real sense of how powerful Dubrovnik would have been as a fortress in its hay-day. If you get tired along the way, there are plenty of hidden coves and caves to explore.

Stroll Down the Tkalciceva Street in Zagreb

Once a creek that separated two towns: Kaptol, and Gradec, Tkalciceva Street, or Tkalca as locals call it, is a cute pedestrian street lined with cafes and small shops on both sides of the street. Many of these are housed in small historical houses of different colours, which just adds to its charm - very photogenic! The street starts just behind the main Jelacic Square and goes all the way to Kaptol Center, make sure to check it out when you are in Zagreb.

Cruise to the Jewel of the Adriatic

I loved our beautiful boat trip to Hvar, one of the most stunning islands in the Croatian archipelago. We set sail from Split harbour across the Adriatic Sea, then explored the historic Hvar Old Town on foot, and finished with some fresh seafood by the beach. You can even head to the Venetian hilltop fortress to soak up the gorgeous views!

What to Eat and Drink in Croatia

What to eat in Croatia? You don't have to ask us twice. We’ve got the hottest tips on where to find the best dishes like boškarin beef, deep-fried fritule, and the inky crni rižot.

Black Risotto (Crni Rizot)

Don’t let the tar-like appearance put you off - this Dalmatian seafood risotto is simply delicious. Crni rižot is cooked with rice, squid or cuttlefish, red wine, garlic and olive oil. It’s also got a healthy dose of squid ink, which gives the dish its distinct jet black colour and intense flavour, so don't let its appearance put you off.

Boskarin

If you want to try gourmet Croatian cuisine, look no further than boškarin beef, from the white-grey long-horned cattle of Istria, it's found fame as one of the most famous delicacies in Croatia. You’ll love a juicy boškarin steak or boškarin salami, or try it with a bowl of handmade pasta.

Fritule

Craving something sweet? These donut-like balls or fritule, are made with flour, egg yolks, raisins, lemon zest and a dash of local schnapps, then deep-fried. Topped with chocolate sauce and powdered sugar, sweet-tooths will love this addictive street food.

When is best to visit Croatia

There’s something extra special about Croatia in the warm sunny days of summer, autumn and spring. From April to October, it's all about beach days and island hopping.

Best Time to Visit Croatia’s Beaches

If you’re dreaming of taking a dip in the Adriatic Sea, the best time is anywhere from May to October. The summer months are perfect for lazy days at the beach.

Best Time to Explore Croatia’s National Parks

Dreaming of exploring national parks like Plitvice? Get going in the shoulder months of April and May or September and October for fewer crowds and great weather.

Best Time to Go Sailing in Croatia

The best time to get your sea legs and sail Croatia is from June to September, when the weather is at its finest and sailing conditions are just right.

Swimsuit

Prep yourself for sun-drenched days and sparkling sea on your Croatia holiday. Pack your favorite swimsuit, and if you want to go island hopping in Croatia, bring a pair of boat shoes.

Sun Protection

With an average of 2,715 hours of sunlight every year, you’ll definitely need to stock up on sunblock before you visit Croatia. Don’t forget to bring your hat and sunglasses too!

Ginger Tablets

The Adriatic Sea is usually mellow for Croatia sailing tours, but if you’re sensitive to sea-sickness, come prepared with ginger tablets. They’re great for nipping any nausea in the bud.

Pack for Sustainable Travel

Consider your environmental impact when you next take a trip and go single-use-plastic-free by packing a reusable water bottle, a steel straw, your own shopping bags and refillable toiletry bottles.

How to Travel Responsibly in Croatia

Leave No Trace

Whether you’re going on a Croatia cruise or exploring the national parks, you can help keep Croatia beautiful. Never leave any rubbish behind and don’t disturb the wildlife.

Go Plastic-free

Waste disposal is a big issue for Croatia, but you can do your part. Instead of arriving with lots of plastic packaging, use reusable bags and bottles that you can take home.

Try the Local Seafood

Head to the local restaurants along Croatia’s coastline to find the freshest seafood caught that same day. You’ll support the local community and leave with a very satisfied tummy.
