Jadrija lighthouse[/caption]
There are numerous “famous” beaches on our coast. Bačvice in Split, Kolovare beach of Zadar, Banje in Dubrovnik, Bonj of Hvar… to mention just a few.

On birds and history of Pag
The forecast for last weekend was almost summer like and it was no time to stay at home. I had some places to see on Pag Island for business so we decided to go there for a day trip. Our friends joined us and the first stop was the interesting and picturesque fortica tower on the…

Of course, the peak season is crazy but that…
Beaches of Vis Island – Sandy Smokova beach
Vis is generally known as one of the most beautiful islands of Croatia. Culture, history, food, beaches…all that makes Vis Island a very special destination.

Sand beaches in Croatia – Kraljičina (Queen’s) Beach in Nin
Sandy beaches in Croatia are not as rare as many travelers think! Those that stretch for miles are rare, though. Patches of sand and small sandy beaches are found almost down the entire coast but most of the coastline is rugged and rocky with rocky and pebbly beaches. One of the areas that has only…
