ZAGREB, June 23, 2020 – Tourists generated 842,659 nights over the June 19-22 extended weekend in Croatia and an average of 210,000 stayed in the country per day, the National Tourist Board (HTZ) said on Tuesday.
Domestic tourists accounted for 23% of the nights and foreigners for 77%. The most numerous foreigners were Germans, Slovenians, Austrians, and the Czech.
The highest number of nights was generated in Istria County, followed by Primorje-Gorski Kotar and Zadar counties.
