If your Mediterranean fantasies feature balmy days by sapphire, turquoise waters in the shades of ancient walled towns, Croatia is the place to turn your dreams into reality.
Coastal Croatia is truely extraordinary with its island-speckled coastline, that is indisputably its main attraction. Firstly, you get struck by the remarkable clarity of the water. When it's set against a dazzling white pebbly beach, the water sparkles with a jewel-like intensity in shades of emerald and sapphire. There are long sandy and shingly stretches too – perfect for lazy days spent lounging and devouring trashy holiday novels. If that all sounds too relaxing, there are water-based activities at hand to lure you off your sun lounger – snorkelling, diving, kayaking, windsurfing and sailing, just for starters.
