Porer lighthouse

The 35 m lighthouse tower is central with regards to the rest of the stone building. There are many beautiful bays and islets in the vicinity of Porer. The islet itself has three smaller berths. The stone edifice is a ground-floor building with a concrete yard and has two four-bed apartments. The islet is so small that it takes just over a minute to walk around it, nevertheless, the walk is magnificent due to sunsets on Porer that are considered to be the most beautiful on the Adriatic.

Diocletian Palace in Split

Diocletian Palace

The main tourist area of Split is the main portico of the Palace. It’s still largely in tact and represents the entrance to Diocletian’s primary living quarters, as well as his tomb and temple to Venus, which is on the spot of Luxor Cafe now. At night, the entire area is lit up and looks wonderful. The city is currently restoring the Roman formations around the portico, so there will be scaffolding covering a large portion of it for, I recall, about 10 years.

Croatian tunnel Brinje

Travel Info

The Croatian tunnel Brinje, located in the A1 Zagreb – Split motorway is the best tunnel in Europe in 2007! This top recognition for the 1540-metre-long twin tunnels was won in a field of 51 other tunnels covered by the EuroTAP project testing which this year pooled 12 national automobile clubs from 11 European countries. The recognition of the Croatian tunnel, opened in 2004, is all the greater because Croatia is the only non-EU member encompassed by the testing.

Mandalina

Owner and Chairman of the Board of Nautical Centre Prgin, who has established himself as one of the leading businessmen in the Šibenik area after taking over the bankrupt dry dock, has recently presented his new partners from America to the public, and he plans to achieve a gigantic and very attractive project with them. To be more accurate, those partners come from the company called Island Global Yachting (IGY). Through the cooperation with this American company, Goran Prgin plans to treat Kuline near Šibenik (a peninsula that is naturally connected to the shipyard) with the construction of a unique hotel-nautical complex that will feature the first specialized marina for mega-yachts in Croatia.

Islands of Croatia

Story about islands we will begin from the north of Croatian coast, from Brijuni These 14 islands are situated in the area seven kilometers long between Pula and Rovinj. Nature in that area created true little heaven; true harmony of plant and animal world, historical monuments and modern hotels. On Brijuni you can run away to shade of rich evergreen vegetation, while pheasants, deer and does freely roam around the island, and enjoy peace and quite under the treetops of holm oak and hundred years old olive groves.

Adventure Croatia Holidays

Croatia Holidays

Magical adventures in Croatia with hundreds of sparkling waterfalls and more than a thousand islands set amid the blue of the sea, green mountain rivers and streams, virgin canyons, wild karst and mellow plains. Nestling between the Alps and the Adriatic Sea, in the south-eastern part of the European continent, Croatia jealously protects eight national parks, ten nature parks and a whole range of special reserves, including plant life, animals, geological formations, hydrological phenomena, all within a small but rich area that can be travelled by car from one end to another in a single day.

The Mediterranean Diet

The Mediterranean diet is a modern nutritional model inspired by the traditional dietary patterns of some of the countries of the Mediterranean Basin, particularly Dalmatia (Croatia), Greece and Southern Italy. Dietary data from those parts of the Mediterranean region that in the recent past enjoyed the lowest recorded rates of chronic diseases and the highest adult life expectancy. The healthfulness of this pattern is corroborated by epidemiological and experimental nutrition research. The average amounts given are in most cases intentionally nonspecific, since variation is known to have been considerable within this pattern.
