Croatia wraps everything you could ever want in a European getaway into one picture-perfect package. Think ancient stone towns, turquoise seas, and that unbeatable coastal charm. With Pinoy Tourism, you’ll experience Croatia like a local — from wandering its cobbled streets to lounging on sun-kissed islands and soaking in views you’ll never forget. Start your adventure in Zagreb, the lively capital where Roman history meets modern-day culture (and seriously good coffee). Then, breathe in the sea air along Opatija’s 12-kilometre promenade. Venture inland and let the teal waterfalls of Plitvice Lakes National Park blow your mind. Out at sea, set sail through the Adriatic, hopping between islands that redefine paradise.

Croatia is the kind of place that hooks you — not just with its beauty, but with its rhythm. You’ll find it in the slow meals, the warm locals, and the sunset drinks that always seem to last just a little longer than planned.

            In Croatia, I love taking guests to a family-owned spot on Hvar Island. You sit on a stone terrace surrounded by vineyards while locals cook octopus, lamb, and veal the old-fashioned way — slow and soulful. Everything’s paired with homemade wine, of course.

            Our top 5 things to do in Croatia

            Explore the capital city of Zagreb

            Zagreb sits between mountains and rivers — a perfect mix of history, art, and café culture. Visit the MSU Gallery for a splash of modern art, or stroll through the bustling Kaptol market for local flavors and friendly smiles.

            Take a romantic stroll along Opatija’s promenade

            Follow the Lungomare, a scenic coastal walk that stretches 12 kilometres between Preluka and Lovran. With grand villas on one side and the Adriatic Sea on the other, this is Croatia’s version of a daydream.

            Marvel at the beauty of Plitvice Lakes National Park

            Lose yourself in the 16 emerald lakes and endless waterfalls of Plitvice — one of Europe’s most stunning natural wonders. Wooden walkways and forest trails make it a photographer’s paradise.

            Climb the medieval walls of Dubrovnik

            Walk along the famous fortress walls of Dubrovnik’s Old Town, a UNESCO World Heritage site that looks straight out of a movie set. End your day with a local apéritif as the sun dips behind the Adriatic — pure magic.

            Spend a slow day on Hvar Island

            Hvar is all about good vibes and golden sunsets. Wander its marble streets, visit the Renaissance-era Cathedral, or simply do nothing but enjoy island life — that’s the point, after all.

            Best museums in Croatia

            Zagreb

            Museum of Arts and Crafts

            A treasure trove of 160,000 pieces — from intricate jewelry and watches to instruments and fashion. The building alone is worth the visit.

            Croatia

            Croatian Museum of Naïve Art

            A small but mighty collection that celebrates creativity without formal training — art that’s raw, emotional, and wonderfully human.

            Split

            Ivan Meštrović Gallery

            Dedicated to Croatia’s most celebrated sculptor, this gallery blends art, architecture, and soul. Expect masterpieces crafted in marble, bronze, and wood, along with breathtaking sea views.

            Best food in Croatia

            Ispod Peke

            “Under the lid”, literally. Meats, veggies, and herbs are slow-cooked beneath a terracotta dome over an open fire. It’s smoky, rich, and unforgettable.

            Crni Rižot (Black Risotto)

            Don’t let the color fool you, this jet-black risotto made with cuttlefish ink and parmesan is Croatia’s ultimate seafood comfort food.

            Pašticada

            A traditional beef stew slow-cooked in wine and spices, often served with gnocchi. One bite, and you’ll understand why it’s been around since the 15th century.

            What to pack for a tour in Croatia

            What to Pack

            A hunger for seafood

            Fresh squid, mussels, and lobster are daily staples. Bring your appetite.

            Sun protection

            Croatia gets a lot of sunshine. Hats, sunglasses, and sunscreen are non-negotiable.

            Your favorite tea

            If you’re picky about your brew, pack your own — not every café stocks variety.

            Comfortable shoes

            Cobblestone streets and cliffside views aren’t flip-flop friendly.

            Ginger tablets

            If you’re sailing, a little motion-sickness prep goes a long way.

            Other things to know before you go

            From Dubrovnik’s medieval charm to the easygoing rhythm of island life, Pinoy Tourism will take you there, with local insights, unforgettable moments, and plenty of time to just be.

            You can experience the magic in a long weekend — but if you want to explore cities, beaches, and islands, plan for at least 10–14 days.

            Absolutely. Pinoy Tourism always recommends travel insurance for peace of mind. Make sure it covers medical care, cancellations, and emergencies.
