June the 22nd, 2024 – The widely read Conde Nast Traveler has highlighted two Croatian destinations that are “less crowded in summer” – Šibenik and Kornati.
As Poslovni Dnevnik writes, one of the most influential tourist publications in the world, Conde Nast Traveler, singled out Šibenik and Kornati as two of the 27 best European destinations for enjoying a summer break in (relative) peace and quiet, as reported by tportal.
“Believe it or not, Croatia is still an option, even though 20 million tourists visited its beautiful medieval cities and extraordinary coastline in 2018 alone. And sometimes it seems as if all 20 million flock there in August, during which the most popular cities are packed to level at which they seem like they could burst,” writes Conde Nast Traveler, before adding:
“A one-day sailing trip around Kornati will bring you scenes of an uninhabited idyllic landscape left to vineyards, orchards and little else, so here – you will get some much-needed freshness.”
The respected Conde Nast Traveler then points out that the Kornati Islands are in the immediate vicinity of the ancient Dalmatian city known as King Krešimir’s town. “A large historical city with a lovely labyrinth of stone as white as chalk”, writes the publication, seeing it placed as a desirable destination on a list that also includes the likes of Bodrum, Zakynthos, the French lakes, Amsterdam, Papua New Guinea Guinea, and others.
We’d be among the first to agree with Conde Nast Traveler that beautiful Šibenik is worth a visit. Here are our ideas should you find yourself there this summer (or at any other time!).
