Croatia: Adriatic Sea
built 811 days ago
With miles of breathtaking beaches, a shoreline dotted with medieval castles and some of the most welcoming natives around, Croatia lures travelers who are thirsty for a unique spot. Small villages house traditional distilleries, where wine is still pressed by hand, and ancient cities pulse with drink, song and merriment. Behind fortress walls, homemade grappa and maraska flow, street performers sing, and everybody celebrates another glorious night on the shores of the Adriatic Sea in beautiful Croatia.

Four years ago, all the world was abuzz about Croatia. The Dalmation Coast was the next French Riviera, they said. Hurry, before the development money arrives and all that idyllic beauty is marred by high-rise hotels and hordes of holiday-seekers. Today, much of the Adriatic coast and its rocky islands remain unspoiled, if less unknown. Intrepid travelers are ... moving inland to medieval villages and coming back with news about the next wine region, the next Provence. A visit to the storied land of Croatia will make you feel like you've discovered something, too.

Most people visit Croatia between April and September. Although the coast is too cool for swimming in April, you'll enjoy warm, clear skies south of Split and rock-bottom accommodation prices. Zagreb is likely to be comfortable and the cultural season is in full swing at this time. May and June are great months for all outdoor activities (except skiing). Watch out for battalions of school students on class field trips at the end of May and beginning of June.

Croatia are eager for a good performance before they return to UEFA EURO 2008™ qualifying. They are unbeaten in Group E after seven matches and have posted 17 points, the same tally as an Israel team who have played a game more and two clear of Russia. “We’re ready for the next phase of qualifying,” Bilić continued. “The new season is just beginning and it’s stupid to think that success will come easily. In Sarajevo we’ll be playing a team who’ve had some good results in a difficult group and they will be very strong on their home pitch.” Bosnia-Herzegovina are in second place in Group C.
