Croatia

Croatia rewards travelers who leave room in the schedule. Beyond the best-known Adriatic towns, there are quiet islands, wooded inland hills, Roman ruins, market towns, and a food culture shaped by both Central Europe and the Mediterranean. Travel is easiest when you choose fewer bases and let ferries, walks, and long lunches set the pace.
