All about Croatia

When to Visit

The best time to visit Croatia depends on what you want to experience. For beach lovers, the ideal period is June to September, when the weather is warm, and the sea is perfect for swimming. July and August are the peak months, so expect more crowds and higher prices during this time. If you prefer fewer tourists and cooler temperatures, consider visiting in May or October. Spring and autumn are great for exploring historical sites and enjoying outdoor activities like hiking and cycling without the summer rush.

Getting Around

Croatia has an efficient transportation system, making it easy to explore its diverse regions. Major cities like Dubrovnik, Split, and Zagreb are well-connected by buses and domestic flights. Ferries are the best way to hop between the islands, offering scenic routes along the coast. Renting a car is a great option if you want to explore off-the-beaten-path villages and natural wonders. Roads are well-maintained, and driving along the coastline is a memorable experience.

Traveler Tips

Currency: The local currency is the Euro (€). Credit cards are widely accepted, but it’s useful to carry some cash for small purchases. Language: Croatian is the official language, but many locals, especially in tourist areas, speak English. Local Delicacies: Don’t miss trying local dishes like pasticada, a traditional Dalmatian beef stew, and black risotto, made with cuttlefish. Stay Connected: Get a local SIM card for affordable mobile data. Tipping: Tipping in restaurants is appreciated but not mandatory—around 10% is customary.
