Since the time of the Roman patricians, the Croatian coast has been renowned as a beautiful place to relax. In a later era, rich Venetians did not deny themselves the pleasure to relax on the magnificent seashore, and after them - representatives of noble families from the Austrian Empire. Over time, the infrastructure has improved and evolved, and today the coast of Croatia offers an unforgettable vacation near the clear sea surrounded by virgin nature and hospitable cheerful people.
The coast of Croatia stretches for as much as 6,000 kilometers (along with the mainland and islands), which, of course, opens up huge opportunities for tourists. On the Croatian coast the climate is typically Mediterranean. In summer, the temperature in the daytime rarely falls below +25, and at night it is about +18 ... +20, but there is absolutely no suffocating heat due to a pleasant sea breeze. In the high season, rains here are very rare and fall during the autumn-winter period.
