As the second largest city in Croatia and the largest on the country’s coastline, Split is a popular tourist destination famed for its Roman ruins, awe-inspiring natural beauty, and phenomenal architecture.
Brač is the largest island in Croatia and holds the title as one of the country’s favourite destinations for travellers. With easy access to some of Croatia’s most iconic destinations, the island is far from closed off from the rest of the country, but remains a tranquil retreat for those looking for a getaway that offers something a little different.
Nicknamed by locals as the “Mediterranean flower”, Split is a vibrant city on the coast of the Adriatic that has blossomed over the years to become the popular tourist destination that it is today, living up to its nickname. For those who seek a holiday immersing themselves in a city’s culture and heritage whilst exploring winding medieval streets, Split is without a doubt the spot for you.
The stunning country of Croatia Croatia completely stole my heart. I’d heard the hype — the dazzling Adriatic coastline, ancient walled towns, and turquoise waters — but it wasn’t until I set foot there that I truly understood what makes this country so special. From wandering the cobbled streets of Dubrovnik to chasing waterfalls in Krka National Park, every corner of Croatia offered something unique, authentic, and unforgettable.
Whether you're a beach lover, a history buff, a foodie, or an outdoor adventurer, Croatia delivers on all fronts. I’ve explored the buzzing cafés of Split, kayaked between hidden coves on Hvar, and taken in sunset views over the rooftops of Rovinj — and that’s just scratching the surface. What I love most about travelling here is the balance: one moment you're diving into crystal-clear waters, the next you're sipping local wine in a centuries-old village.
If you're planning your own Croatian escape, let me take you through some of the very best things to do — the kind of experiences that made me fall in love with this Adriatic gem, and that I genuinely believe you'll never forget either.
