Top Tips when choosing a cruise in Croatia

4 min read

When it comes to choosing a cruise in Croatia, there are a few things to consider. With its stunning coastline, mix of cultures and affordable prices, Croatia is one of the best destinations in Europe for a cruise. Here are our top tips for making the most of your cruise in this picturesque country:
  1. Choose the right time of year
The weather in Croatia can be unpredictable, so it’s important to choose the right time of year for your cruise. The summer months (June-September) offer the best chance of good weather, but it can get quite hot and crowded during these months. If you’re looking for fewer crowds and milder temperatures, consider cruising in the spring (April-May) or autumn (October-November).
  1. Pick the correct cruise route
There are several different cruise routes in Croatia, so it’s important to pick the one that best suits your interests. If you want to see as much of the country as possible, consider taking a coastal cruise with Zantium Travel. On the other hand, if you’re more interested in exploring the islands, then a sailing cruise might be a better option for you. Feel free to get in touch, and we will be sure to recommend the best option that suits your requirements.
  1. Consider your budget
Croatia is a relatively affordable destination compared to Western Europe, but prices can vary depending on the cruise route and time of year you choose. Make sure to do your research and set a budget that works for you.
  1. Book your accommodation early
If you’re planning on staying in one of the larger cities before or after your cruise, then it’s essential to book your accommodation as soon as possible. You don’t want to end up spending unnecessary time searching for somewhere to stay near the port! If you would like this aspect of your trip handled, please feel free to get in touch, and we will gladly be of assistance.
  1. Pack appropriately
The weather can be unpredictable in Croatia, so it’s a good idea to pack accordingly. Bring plenty of sunscreen, sunglasses and a hat if you are cruising during the summer months. If you are visiting off-season, make sure to bring some warm clothing too!
  1. Enjoy the local culture
Croatia is a culturally rich country with a mix of Mediterranean, Slavic and Austro-Hungarian influences. Be sure to take some time to explore the local culture and soak up the atmosphere in the towns and villages you visit.
  1. Sample the delicious food
Croatian food is some of the best in Europe! Make sure to try some of the local specialities, such as Dalmatian ham, fish stew and blackberry brandy.
  1. Take a swim
The Croatian coastline is beautiful, and what better way to enjoy it than by taking a swim? There are plenty of secluded coves and where you can take a dip, so make sure to pack your swimsuit!
  1. Explore the islands
The Croatian islands are a must-see for anyone cruising in the country. With their stunning beaches, charming villages and crystal clear waters, they are a paradise for tourists.
