Not everybody is thinking only about football.

Croatia is becoming a more and more trendy and even possibly a “fancy” destination. This has been proven once again by the well-attended Beach Polo Cup which is traditionally held in the beautiful Rovinj in Istria. The third edition of the competition took place over the weekend.
