Pristine beaches, enchanting villages and history galore - Croatia's got it all.
With its sublime stretch of Adriatic coast, Croatia has long been regarded as one of the most beautiful parts of Europe. The booming tourist industry that was interrupted by war in the early 1990s has swept back in force, and visitors are flocking to its string of coastal and island resorts.
Travel warning! - Landmines
Some remote areas of Croatia, even though safe and welcoming, remain uncleared of landmines. These include the Danube region in eastern Slavonia and some parts of the Krajina. It is unwise to stray into fields or abandoned villages.
