The Best Croatian Islands to Visit
Croatia is not all about holidays in
Dubrovnik & city breaks in Zagreb. The country is also home to
numerous beautiful & untouched islands, most of which are pretty
easy to get to, and can either be used as a base for a holiday or as
island hopping destinations. From party islands to quite seaside
escapes, here are our top picks for a Croatian island getaway.
Brac:
Recognized for its traditional
architecture, sandy beaches and limestone quarries, Brac is the largest
of the central Dalmatian Islands. The Island is best known for its
stunning Zlatni Rat (Golden Horn) beach that resembles a long obtruding
finger extending into the sea. Besides beach lovers, this is also a
popular destination among wind surfers, and the island’s nearness to the
mainland makes it popular with day-trippers.
Hvar:
Boasting nearly 2718 hours of sunshine a
year, Hvar is the sunniest of the islands of the Dalmatian coast. It is
also the swankiest & a magnet for Hollywood celebrities: Michael
Douglas, Client Eastwood, Brad Pitt, Kevin Spacey, Gwyneth Paltrow, Jack
Nicholson and Jodie Foster have all vacationed here. Hvar Town has also
turned out to be a party destination, luring numerous international
revelers credits to its plenty of trendy clubs and bars placed in the
harbor region. To enjoy a quieter scene, head to the picturesque port
towns of Jelsa and Stari Grad.
Korcula:
Korcula is the most populated island in
the Adriatic Sea, with locals settling predominantly in the Old Town.
This offers you so many things to see and do when you explore the
island. More than anything else, the architecture that dates back to the
Venetian Renaissance makes up for a superb Instagram picture. You will
see local performer outfitted in traditional folk costumes. Cafes and
restaurants serve appetizing Mediterranean food. The beaches here are
breathtaking as well.
Mljet:
Mljet is the greenest island of Croatia
and home to the Mljet National Park, an island getaway in the Adriatic
Sea. It was created in 1960 & has since been a renowned tourist
site in Croatia, with more than 100,000 tourists visiting the park
annually.
Beside the park, tourists can also visit
the island if they want to have a quiet day by the sea. Its immaculate
beach forests provide a kind of stillness that you can’t find elsewhere.
