Cruises to Croatia score highly on everything from beaches to history.
Where we sail in Croatia
Holidays to Croatia have really crept onto the radar over the last few years. This scenic part of Eastern Europe majors in historic towns, chalk-white beaches and forest hiking trails. And our Croatia itineraries put you right at the heart of the action. You can pace the marble streets of Dubrovnik’s old town, where 17 grand churches sit within metres of each other. Or head to Split on the Dalmatian Coast, where you can flop down on the beach or explore the fortress-like complex at its centre.
Getting out and about
The best time to visit Croatia is between early June and late September. At this time of year, temperatures on the coast and around the islands range from the mid-twenties to the low thirties. Zadar’s a real gem for history buffs – it’s littered with Roman and Venetian ruins. And keen walkers can explore Croatia’s wild side. Take a stroll out of town in any direction and you’ll find thick forests and olive groves.

Facts about Croatia
Port of call in Croatia
Rijeka
Although a busy working port, Rijeka has plenty of old world charm squirrelled away. Peach and lemon-coloured buildings march along the pedestrian streets, topped by terracotta roofs and carved arches. Rijeka also serves as a gateway to the islands filling the Kvarner Gulf. They’re a rural, laid-back bunch punctured with coves and beaches.
