While there are plenty of excellent resort towns, amazing beaches, stunning views, and fascinating attractions located along Croatia's lauded and beloved coastline, if you move inland, you will also find a beautiful and varied landscape that is full of some incredible gems and wonderful surprises. For example, if you have found one of our stunning villas in Karlovac, or one of our lovely vacation rentals in Primorje-gorski Kotar, or a great holiday rental in Lika-senj and you're looking to start hitting the road, day-trip, and discover some of Croatia's most unique attractions, then we recommend heading out early one day to take in the fascinating fairytale castle of Veliki Tabor.

One of the most well-known and best-developed tourist destinations in Croatia is the region of Istria. While this means that some areas have become populated by large, built-up developments and busy resort towns that can be flooded with crowds of tourists on package deals during the high season, you will still find that there is plenty of authenticity and untouched beauty to enjoy in the region. From medieval hilltop towns to hidden beaches along the distinctively rocky Istrian coast, from Roman ruins to lush landscapes dotted by orchards and vineyards, the charming, varied, and verdant landscape of Istria has lots to offer the discerning tourist looking for something beyond more typically touristy destinations and pursuits. Just browse our villas in Istria and you can come and discover the region's endless surprises and charms for yourself.

Those who have found a villa in Split and are coming to enjoy this region of Croatia, are likely coming for sun, fun, relaxation, pretty seaside towns, and the stunning surroundings of the region's lush countryside. However, if you are a thrill-seeker who is enjoying a vacation in Split and you're looking to add a little dose of adrenaline-pumping fun into your schedule between days enjoying the beauty and tranquility of Croatia, if you really want to admire those famously gorgeous views in Split, then a day enjoying the services of Zipline Croatia Omis is just the thing!

Close to the Italian border, to the north of Croatia, you will find the lovely town of Pula, capital of Istria. An impossibly pretty place, you can expect cobbled streets, Roman ruins dotted throughout (including a rather impressive and picturesque amphitheatre that could give the colosseum a run for its money), wonderful beaches, excellent seafood, festivals, a vibrant nightlife, and lots to see and do in this seaside gem. It is a place with something to suit everyone from couples in search of romance, groups of friends in search of fun, families looking for lots of great activities, and solo travellers looking for a bit of adventure alike.

If you have found a vacation rental in Pula or a vacation rental in Istria and are looking at the top things to see and do while exploring this charming city, you will most likely see plenty of travellers and guides suggesting a visit to Pula's Aquarium. The most visited public aquarium in Croatia, this institution is particularly devoted to education on the sea and its inhabitants, the need for protection and conservation of our waters, and the rescuing and returning back to the sea of critters who have found themselves in a spot of danger or trouble. As such, it is a perfect place to see sea creatures if you also really care about their safety and well-being!
