CROATIAN SPECIALTIES<br />
Croatia possesses all the prerequisites for the further development of tourism: one of the most beautiful<br />
coasts with more than 1,000 islands, well-preserved nature including 8 national parks (Plitvice Lakes, Paklenica,<br />
Risnjak, Northern Velebit, Kornati, Mljet, Brijuni and Krka) and 10 nature parks, cultural and historical heritage<br />
with numerous cultural monuments (Diocletian’s Palace in Split, the town of Trogir and Dubrovnik, Euphrasian’s<br />
Basilica in PoreË) protected by UNESCO. Due to a mild climate, the Croatian coast is attractive for tourists<br />
throughout the year.<br />
Croatia offers various forms of tourism, including vacation tourism, nautical tourism, congress tourism, ecology<br />
tourism, health tourism, hunting and fishing, rural tourism and pleasure cruising. Croatian tourist regions<br />
have shaped their specific offer in accordance with global trends and their own tradition. The most important<br />
regions are Istria, Kvarner, Dalmatia, Dubrovnik and the Dubrovnik area, Zagreb as the Croatian capital and continental<br />
