Dubrovnik - small city located southeast in Croatian coast, close to border with Montenegro. However, it's not recommended to visit Dubrovnik by car, because there are not many parking spots, especially in summer time. As Dubrovnik is historical city, with a lot of amazing restaurants, beaches and rich history, it's more of a quiet place. Young couples, families with children, people in retirement will for sure enjoy in delicious food, Crystal Clear Water, beaches and warm weather with a lot of sun.

DALMATIA

A few days ago when I was waiting for bus at the bus station I saw one interesting article in Vancouver Sun, and that article took my feelings back in my home country, in Croatia!

Vancouver Sun wrote that article so amazing that everything what they said is very true!

On very end of article, topic is about food and eating in Dalmatia.

This is what say The Vancouver Sun:

"When visiting the Dalmatian coast, seafood is a must, as hardworking restaurants seem to abide by the local creed: Eating meat is food; eating fish, that’s pleasure. One waiter reminds me that a fish should swim three times: first in the sea, then in olive oil, and finally in wine. Red wines, which Croatians call “black wine” (crno vino), are a specialty along the southern coast.

With succulent seafood, sunny beaches, and a carefree attitude, Croatia’s coast offers Eastern Europe’s own twist on la dolce vita.|"  by: The Vancouver Sun 

So true
