Croatia boasts an impressive tapestry of history that spans centuries. The roots of the Croatian realm can be traced back to the formidable duchies formed in the 7th century by the Croats, who arrived in the late 6th century. From the crowning of Croatia's first King in 925 to joining a personal union with Hungary in 1102, this resilient nation has shaped and reshaped history. Significant events, influenced by the Ottoman conquests and later Austrian rule, have collectively forged the proud nation we know today.

In 1991, Croatia boldly declared its independence, propelling itself from the shadows of the Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia into the international limelight. Today, this dazzling republic and liberal democracy is known for its high-income economy, ranked 40th in the Human Development Index, and is a member of multiple international organisations, including the European Union and United Nations. Croatia is a land alive with a spirit of resilience and a passion for progress, as reflected in their modern-day infrastructure, healthcare, and education sectors.

When to visit Croatia

With varied landscapes and picturesque coastal regions, there’s always a good time to explore Croatia. If you relish sun-soaked days and bustling attractions, then high season (July and August) holds the promise of balmy weather and vibrant outdoor affairs. Alternatively, the milder climes of the shoulder season (May-June, September-October) provide a serene backdrop for outdoor explorations in relative tranquility.

The winter months (November-April) bring a sense of calm and the opportunity to immerse yourself in cultural experiences at a leisurely pace, particularly in the cosmopolitan charm of Zagreb. Keep in mind, the south of Croatia typically enjoys a warmer climate compared to the north.
