THE ADRIATIC COAST

The sea area of the east Adriatic coast from the peninsula Savudrija in the west to the peninsula Prevlaka in the south-east belongs to the Republic of Croatia. This magnificent part of nature, Croatian coast, 5790 km in length, and its 1185 islands, islets and rocks, is considered as one of the best indented coasts in the world.

Croatia's coast is among the most indented on the Mediterranean, and is a favorite destination for tourists, especially boaters. The islands of Kornati and Dugi otok with its Telaščica lake near the city of Zadar are particularly interesting, while the small islands near the city of Šibenik, such as Krapanj, are a great place for a tranquil holiday. The island of Hvar, home to the oldest theater in Europe and a summer festival, lies close to Split and has the most sunshine hours on the Adriatic.

The picturesque island of Šolta with its bays far from the hustle and bustle of big cities is ideal for a quiet holiday. The island of Brač is known for its 200 m sandy beach "Zlatni rat", heaven for surfers. You can also try hang gliding or simply have a good time in the numerous night clubs, discos and restaurants. On the island of Vis, there are ruins of Roman thermae and an ancient theatre, as well as the breathtaking "Modra špilja" (Blue cave). If you are looking for a quiet holiday, Vis is the right destination due to the untouched nature and its few inhabitants. At the far south are the wooded island of Korčula, birthplace of Marco Polo and home to traditional knight dances, the island of Lastovo, known for its rich underwater, and the Elafiti islands close to Dubrovnik.
