Croatia Cruise Holidays

Cruises to Croatia offer a wealth of activities to enjoy, from relaxing on beautiful beaches on the Adriatic to exploring the rich culture and history that the ancient ports display. A Croatia cruise can often be found at excellent value for money, and its sunny climate and family-friendly atmosphere makes it a great choice for a spring or summer holiday. After its recent tumultuous history in the 90's, Croatia is constantly rebuilding and recreating its booming tourist industry, with Croatia cruises now a popular itinerary for many cruise lines.

 

From museums, churches and ancient palaces, to rugged coves and calm beaches and rustic inland villages, Croatia cruises show a Mediterranean charm, with a unique culture. Dubrovnik is a very popular stop for cruise ships, with the medieval city with its well-preserved walls offering a charming old quarter, full of tiny streets to explore and a wealth of history to uncover, and plenty of local bars and trendy cafes lining the port. The Adriatic Coast is the most popular destination for cruises to Croatia, with coastal cities and beach resorts such as Split, Hvar, and Cavtat offering a mix of rich history and thriving waterfront life. There are endless sailing trips and ferry rides available, particularly to the string of beautiful offshore islands, such as the Elafiti Islands. Cruises to Croatia feature a glorious mountain backdrop, with plenty of unspoilt countryside full of natural beauty, and a host of forests, vineyards, lakes and picturesque villages to explore.

 

An ideal spot for sitting back and watching the world go by, the coastline seen on a Croatia cruise features a wealth of waterfront bars, cafes and restaurants, serving up a mix of local and international food and drink. Eating out on a Croatia cruise allows diners to experience the diversity of the country’s cuisine, with the coastal regions boasting a Mediterranean influence, and plenty of fresh fish and seafood, whilst inland features heavier meat and cheese dishes, with lots of dumplings and stews. Croatia cruises also offer plenty of shopping opportunities, with regional crafts such as lacework, crochet and embroidery found throughout the shops and markets.
