Croatia
Croatia is a fast-growing European travel destination, as Americans are discovering a destination that Europeans have visited for decades. It has some of the most popular beaches in Europe, with the numerous islands offshore considered to have the best beaches. Croatia is also known for its history and natural beauty, offering opportunities for outdoor activities such as hiking, kayaking, and mountain climbing at its many national parks such as Plitvice Lakes. It also offers the chance to learn about Croatian history by visiting its many walled cities (such as Dubrovnik, Trogir, and Korcula), Roman-era buildings (of which Diocletian's Palace is perhaps the best known), and religious buildings such as Zagreb Cathedral in the country's exquisite capital.

Sibenik
The gateway to the Kornati Islands, the city of Sibenik is perhaps best-known as being the oldest Croat settlement on the Adriatic coast. Sibenik was founded by King Petar Kresimir IV in 1066 CE, and for a short time it was the capital of the Croat Kingdom. In just the first hundred years, the city was conquered by Venice, Byzantium, and finally Hungary. By the time it became a city in the Venetian Republic (Sebenico) in the 15th century, a defensive wall system flanked by four fortresses was built. One of those fortresses, the Fortress of St. Nicholas, is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Sibenik's main cathedral, the Cathedral of St. James, dates from the early Venetian period and is also on the list of UNESCO World Heritage Sites.
Visit and discover the great Fortress of St. Nicholas, Cathedral of St. James (Sibenik Cathedral), Michael's Fortress, Aquapark Dalmatia, Barone Fortress, St. John's Fortress, Zlarin Island, and so much more. -
