Croatia is situated in Southern Central Europe, a roughly horseshoe-shaped country with a coastline 1,777 kilometres long. No less than 1,185 islands lie offshore, but only 66 of them are inhabited. Italy lies to the west and Slovenia to the north.
Croatia's stunning coastline is on the Adriatic Sea, one of the cleanest seas in the Mediterranean and wonderfully warm.
Croatia is much closer to the UK than many people imagine, only two and a half flying time from London and three hours from Manchester and Birmingham.
