Camping holidays in Croatia

Camping in Croatia is the ideal way to explore this fascinating country with a deep cultural history. The Istrian peninsula is Croatia’s green oasis where tiny fishing villages are dotted along the clear azure of the Adriatic Sea, while the landscape is rich with vineyards and pine forests. One of the less explored destinations for European camping, Croatia is the perfect choice for families looking for sun, sea and an unspoilt location.

Our portfolio of campsites and mobile homes in Croatia are located in the heart of the Istrian peninsula, and combine a great location with outstanding facilities, including wonderful swimming pools and a huge choice of watersports along the coast. Our campsites in Croatia are ideally placed for exploring the many local highlights…

Things to do in Croatia

Labin
A beautiful town located on the Eastern coast of the Istrian peninsula. Explore the wealth of Venetian inspired palaces and ancient churches, before heading to the highest point of the hillside for a sweeping view of the coastline below.

Groznjan
Located inland, this is a tiny village that is home to an international music school. Throughout the summer months there are recitals, concerts and displays. Listen out for musicians practising as you wander the twisting streets and explore the many galleries and art shops.

Plitvice Lakes National Park
Covered in lush green vegetation, and declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site, the 16 beautiful lakes that make up this park are well worth a visit whilst camping in Croatia. Discover tranquil waters, cascading waterfalls and an abundance of rare wildlife.

Rovinj
A picturesque town with narrow cobbled streets dominated by the Cathedral of St. Euphemia. The Cathedral offers stunning views out to sea and the thirteen green islands of the Rovinj archipelago.

Brioni Islands
This national park is composed of two larger and twelve smaller islets. Rich in flora and fauna, the islands are scattered with ancient ruins, sandy coves and cottages.

An ancient town steeped in culture, with a spectacular cathedral at its heart. Listed as a World Heritage Site, many visit for the mosaics which have been in place since the 4th century. One of the campsites in Croatia is located nearby, making Porec an ideal day trip.
