Not only can you spend time on the beaches but also exploring primeval nature or visiting various historical and cultural memorials would be an amusing alternative. Most known for their museums are the cities Dubrovnik, Split. Roman influence is especially felt in Pula with a well preserved amphitheatre and the Augustus temple and in Split with the palace of Diokletean. Byzantine architecture in Poreche and Ravenne and the early roman style is preserved in Zadar.

Also diving is popular among tourist activities. The best place for it is St. Andija Island. The depth of the sea here is up to 78 meters. Inhabited by fishes and corals and covered with algi, a wonderful underwater wall reaching the bottom is expecting both the beginners and professionals of diving. At 26 meters depth there is a cave, surrounded with spots where to find red corals. The costs and bays of Croatia are perfect for a family rest. In the evening you can see hedgehogs storming the grass.

In the north, the peninsula Istria includes the major coastal resorts of Pula, Porec, Opatija and Rovinj; the Kvarner region has many islands and islets with good beaches. To the south are the Split and Makarska regions. Zagreb is the economic, cultural and administrative heart of the region. It sits prominently on the River Sava. Once considered to be the most beautiful city in Croatia with its medieval walls and palaces, Dubrovnik is one of the oldest cities and one of the youngest European capitals. Within the palace concerts, opera and dance all take place. Plitvice Lakes National Park consists of a string of 16 beautiful blue-green lakes in a valley between high forested mountains.

Besides giving opportunities for surfing and windsurfing, you can also find services of rental equipments for these sports in any hotel, as these are the most favourite activities in the country. It is recommended to visit the Brach Island, considered to have the best beach in Croatia and the Peljesac peninsular. Between the Brach and Hvar islands the waters are considered to be the best ones for windsurfing. With about 1778km of mainland coast, emerald-blue waters, sunny beaches and endless unspoilt islands, this beauty of a country is an ideal destination for lovers of sea and sunshine aiming to avoid crowds during their holiday. Rates of hotel, holiday villa’s and holiday villages are very reasonable. Small fishing boats and luxury yachts are often seen.
