Croatia: Introduction
If you have not heard of Croatia so far, or if you want to know some basic information about this beautiful country, here are some introductory things you might want to know.
"Sitting at the crossroads of Europe, the Mediterranean and the Balkans, Croatia has a stunning 5,835km of coastline, and while it might not be the most obvious cheap holiday destination, Croatia has lots to offer. Sunny beaches, delicious Mediterranean-style food and historic locations for those who like to mix culture and relaxation – Croatia is the ideal package holiday.
Reasons to visit
Croatia’s shoreline provides not only beautiful sandy beaches but also plenty of fantastically fresh seafood. Croatia is also well-known for its premium wines – particularly the fine white wines the north-east of the country produces. Having been under Roman, Venetian, Italian and Austro-Hungarian rule, the country has retained a lot of these influences. A family holiday to Croatia means you can be sitting in the sun or visiting a medieval town – there is something to please everyone.
Things to see and do
Visit the Dalmatian coast and explore the town of Mlini, which is about 12 kilometres south of Dubrovnik on the road to the resort of Cavtat. Dubrovnik is a great destination for days out – you can visit the Old Town, which is car free, so perfect for a stroll, or go for a cable car ride to get the best views and visit the museum and fortress on Mount Srd.
Kids’ attractions
Once your kids have enjoyed the fun of swimming and building sandcastles on the beach, you can take them to the aquarium in Dubrovnik, where they can also explore the natural history museum and take a walk along the ancient city walls.
Weather
The most popular time to visit the region is during the summer months, from June to September. Temperatures are in the mid to high 20s, occasionally reaching into the 30s. Croatia has a very low humidity, so the hot sun is pleasant, and you can always dive into the waters of the Adriatic to cool off."
