Footprint Croatia

The third edition of Footprint Croatia gets behind the glossy brochures to uncover the real appeal of this holiday favourite. Medieval towns, Venetian ports and Roman remains vie for attention with a seascape of scattered islands, crystal-clear water and hidden coves. This fully updated guide shows you how to make the most of your stay, with advice on diving, sailing, hiking, watersports and swanning about on a yacht. Includes eccentric places to stay from lighthouses to quaint old stone cottages, socialist era hotels and where to find the best food and drink. Local customs from drinking Turkish coffee to celebrating the Day of the Dead are covered with background insights into history, culture, wildlife and environment.
