Overview

Welcome to Croatia

Croatia became Europe's breakout Mediterranean destination over the past decade, and the country has settled into its new role gracefully. Dubrovnik for the headline, Split as the practical base for the Dalmatian coast, Hvar and Korčula for the islands, and Plitvice Lakes inland for the waterfall-meadow National Park. It is the Mediterranean with cleaner water, lower prices and a more recent history — Croatia only became fully independent in the 1990s.

The headline Croatia trip is Dubrovnik (2-3 nights) + a Dalmatian island week — Hvar, Brač, Korčula, Vis — by ferry or small-ship cruise, 10-12 days total. Add Plitvice Lakes as a day-or-overnight inland excursion. For travellers who want a coastal-and-cultural mix, Split serves better than Dubrovnik as a base — Roman Diocletian's Palace forms the old town centre, ferries to all the islands depart from here, and the cost-per-night is lower.

The Croatian islands deserve more nuance than UK travellers usually give them. Hvar is the cosmopolitan headline (Hvar Town's nightlife, the Pakleni Islands' beach clubs), Brač is the family-resort end (Bol's Zlatni Rat horn beach), Korčula is the wine-and-quiet island (Marco Polo's claimed birthplace), Vis is the off-the-grid hideaway, and Mljet is the National Park island with two saltwater lakes. We design quite different trips around each.

Plitvice Lakes is the inland excursion every Croatia traveller should make. Sixteen interconnected lakes tumbling down a 500m descent via waterfalls — a half-day walk between the highest and lowest. The colour of the water (mineral-rich, turquoise) is genuinely unlike anywhere else in Europe. We typically build Plitvice as a 1-night stop between Zagreb and Split, or as a day-trip from Zadar.

The seasonal rhythm: May-June and September-October are the prime months — the sea is swimmable from late May through October, the crowds are below July-August levels, and Dubrovnik's narrow old-town streets are walkable rather than packed. July-August is hot (32-35°C), busy on Hvar and in Dubrovnik, and 30-40% more expensive. November-March: most islands shut down, but Zagreb and Dubrovnik's Christmas markets are quietly excellent.

Croatian food rewards travellers who like Italian-influenced Mediterranean cooking with a Balkan accent. The Dalmatian coast is grilled-fish, peka (slow-cooked under a bell), prosciutto and Pošip white wine; the Istrian peninsula in the north (the closest part of Croatia to Italy) is one of Europe's under-rated truffle and olive-oil regions; Zagreb in the interior is heartier — štrukli pastries, Zagorje turkey, Slavonian sausage. We routinely build food-led trips through Istria for second-time Croatia visitors.

Croatia pairs naturally with Italy (overnight ferry Bari-Dubrovnik or Ancona-Split), Slovenia (3h drive Zagreb-Ljubljana), Bosnia & Herzegovina (3h drive Dubrovnik-Mostar) and Montenegro (2h drive Dubrovnik-Kotor). The most-booked combination is Croatia + Slovenia (a fortnight) or Dalmatian coast + a Montenegro day-trip.

Why we love Croatia

Rossella — Travel Designer · Luxury & Destination Specialist

Croatia is the country I send people to when they want Mediterranean island life without Italian or Greek prices — and a coastline that still feels a little undiscovered, even after a decade of being not-undiscovered. The water clarity along the Dalmatian coast is, simply, among the best in Europe.

My quiet recommendation: skip Dubrovnik as a base. Stay 1 night there, walk the walls at dawn before the cruise ships arrive, then move to Split or directly to an island. Hvar for cosmopolitan; Korčula for slow; Vis for true escape.

May-June and September-October are the prime months — warm sea (22-25°C), manageable crowds, Dubrovnik walkable. July-August: hot (32-35°C), very busy on Hvar and in Dubrovnik. October still gets sea-swimmable. November-March: most islands shut; Zagreb and Dubrovnik work as Christmas-market and cultural breaks.

Flights & how to get there

Direct flights from major UK airports to Dubrovnik, Split, Zagreb and seasonally Pula, Zadar and Rijeka — typically 2h 30m. Catamarans (Krilo, Jadrolinija) link Split-Hvar-Korčula-Dubrovnik daily May-October. Hire cars are useful for Istria, Plitvice and the wine country; not needed for an islands-only trip.

Visa & passport

UK passport holders can stay 90 days in any 180-day period under Schengen rules (Croatia joined Schengen in 2023). ETIAS from 2026. Check current rules at GOV.UK Foreign travel advice: Croatia.

Currency & money

The Euro (€) (since 2023; the kuna is gone). Card payments universal in tourist areas. Tipping: round up the bill, 10% on a full restaurant meal.

Language & tipping

Croatian. English is widely understood in tourist areas, on the islands and in the cities; less so in rural Slavonia and the inland. Italian is widely understood in Istria. A few Croatian phrases are appreciated.

Health & safety

No mandatory vaccinations. EU healthcare reciprocal arrangements apply with a UK GHIC card. Tap water safe across Croatia. Buy comprehensive travel insurance before you travel.

Holiday types in Croatia

Pick a holiday style — or combine two. Each section links straight to the next step.

City breaks

Croatia's cities reward 2-4 nights each — pair two for a tailor-made multi-centre trip.

Dubrovnik

Dubrovnik

The walled old town, the city walls walk, the cable car to Mount Srđ, and the surrounding Dalmatian coast.

Split

Split

Diocletian's Palace forms the old town centre — Roman walls 1,700 years old still lived in, with ferries to the islands from the harbour.

Zagreb

Zagreb

The Austro-Hungarian capital — Upper and Lower Town, café culture, museum-dense, and Europe's best Christmas market.

Cruises

Croatia's Dalmatian coast is one of the great Mediterranean cruise routes. Dubrovnik, Split and the islands (Hvar, Korčula, Mljet) feature on most Adriatic itineraries; gulet yacht cruises and small-ship Adriatic cruises depart from Split and Dubrovnik. Many travellers pair a 7-night cruise with a land-stay in Dubrovnik or the Plitvice Lakes inland.

FAQs

Croatia — your questions

When is the best time to visit Croatia?

May, June and September are ideal — warm sea, sunshine, fewer crowds. July–August is peak season; book early, expect higher prices. October is mild but the sea cools.

How do I get around the Croatian islands?

Jadrolinija and Krilo ferries connect Split, Hvar, Korčula, Brač and Vis daily in summer. We book these as part of the itinerary; you don't need a car on the islands.

Is Croatia good for families?

Yes — particularly Istria (Pula, Rovinj) and central Dalmatia (Brač, Hvar). Small coves, gentle water, family-run apartments. The walled cities (Dubrovnik, Split) work well for older kids.

Do I need a visa for Croatia?

UK passport holders can stay 90 days in any 180-day period (Croatia joined Schengen in 2023). From the date ETIAS launches (expected 2026), a €7 pre-travel authorisation will be required.

Can I see Croatia and Montenegro together?

Yes — Dubrovnik is a 2-hour drive to Kotor, Montenegro. We routinely pair them in 10–14 day Adriatic itineraries.
