Off the Beaten Track
An obscure choice among the multitude of Adriatic islands, Silba nonetheless has ferry services, beaches and a legendarytower.
SILBA ISLAND
It’s nice to know that even the busy island of Krk has quieter coves, such as this pebble-and-sand stretch accessed from a minor road heading south from Punat.
STARA BAŠKA
Istria has many gorgeous walled hilltop towns, but what’s particularly charming about Hum is its tiny size (basically one street) and tucked-away location.
HUM
Although it’s Croatia’s largest natural lake, Vransko Jezero doesn’t register on many travellers’ radars – unless they happen to be birdwatchers, then it’s a must-visit attraction.
VRANSKO LAKENATURE PARK
With a name worthy of a fantasy novel, this area near the northern tip of the island of Pag has marked walking trails through the groves and signs pointing out significantly venerable trees.
OLIVE GARDENS OF LUN
Tour past wee red-roofed villages, stopping at family-run wineries along the way. This route is located in the countryside west of Zagreb, 20km south of the town ofSamobor.

This fascinating former monastery, hidden in a remote valley on the island of Brač, can only be approached by a narrow, rockytrack.
BLACA HERMITAGE
A little-visited gem on the popular island of Hvar, this wee town has a smattering of interesting attractions, including an unusual fortress church, a canal and a winery.
VRBOSKA
An expanse of little heritage villages set around a wildlife-rich swamp, right on the edge of Slavonia.
