Croatia

The southern Dalmatia area of Croatia featuring the resorts of Dubrovnik, Lapad, and the picturesque villages of Mlini and Cavtat. Croatia is full of natural surprises. Along the coastline lie hundreds of tiny islets and hilly islands, some completely uninhabited, others sprinkled with ancient churches, monasteries, marble colonnades and squares. Their turquoise bays lined with fragrant cedars and pines, while others are dry and deserted. Above the coastline the mountains, home to hundreds of sparkling waterfalls. Rivers weave through verdant valleys, thick with wildflowers. There are butterflies, and hundreds of birds - its a naturalists paradise. Croatia is also rich within culture treats and cuisines. As well as being home to some of the areas finest Roman ruins, it still has medieval villages that perch on top of Istrian Hills, rich Byzantine architecture, vast Venetian squares and ancient cathedrals featuring art by masters like Titan and Tinoretto. Food is considered an art too: youre just as likely to get a magnificent seafood stew at a tiny local tavern as at one of the cosmopolitan gourmet hotspots in Dubrovnik. Fish is often taken straight from the sea to a wood-fired grill. Lamb, strewn with handfuls of locally grown herbs, might be slow-cooked all day. Croatia has also been a wine growing region for centuries since the Greek and Roman times, and you can visit and sample the delicious wines at its numerous award-winning vineyards. Although Croatia has its share of large fun filled resorts, most of the country is still unspoilt, with its hidden gems waiting to be shared with those who wish to spend the time finding them.
