Discover the colours of Croatia and bask in the softer yellow of the sun, the deeper blue of the sea, the evergreens of the beautiful inland, the changing colours of the leaves from yellow and orange to reds and browns through any of the amazing National or Nature Parks throughout the country, from the rocky faces of Northern Velebit to the lowlands and marsh of Kopački rit.

Try the tasty new red or white wines, from the just harvested green or purple grapes, or visit a pumpkin festival and enjoy any of the many squash varieties, be they white, purple or orange. Visit an open-air market and bask in the rainbow of autumn or take a guided tour and forage for mushrooms, or a fresh water fishing trip and catch a silver trout.

Sail the Adriatic and feel the wind and the enjoy the crisp blue surroundings. Or take a walk through a museum or heritage site and revel in the amazing colours of folk costumes, artistry of traditions passed down for generations, view the clay remnants of some of the oldest known artifacts, or learn about the history of olive oil or cheese making, green-gold and creamy-yellow delicacies.

Whether you are taking in the coast or inland of Dalmatia, Kvarner and Istria, or traversing the hills and mountains of Lika, Gorski Kotar and Zagorje, or exploring the meadows, trails and fields of Međimurje, Slavonia and Baranja, or the bustling markets in Zagreb, let the colours of Croatia wash over you.

Paint your spirit!

From Kopački Rit, Papuk, Lonjsko polje and Žumberak to the world-famous Plitvice Lakes and Northern Velebit, these parks stun in all seasons, but nothing beats the colour palette you will experience this season. With the leaves turning various shades of yellow, orange, red and brown, to the turquoise lakes and silver-blue rivers, to the evergreens, it is like the best open-air museum where photos are welcomed and the colours and sounds meant to be shared.

Paint your plates!

Try a Slavonian breakfast, fresh-water trout from the river Gacka or mushrooms from the hills of Gorski Kotar. Continental Croatia is full of flavours and compliments the truffles of Istria, the mandarins of the Neretva valley and the olives on the island of Brač nicely. A plate of colours to explore.

Go vibrant!

Croatia’s folk traditions differ from region to region and is also known for its intricate and colourful folk costumes, such as those of Bizovac or the flower topped hats of the Ljelje -Queens from Gorjani, while the range of song passed down generations include the colourful sounds of the Međimurska popevka to Eastern Croatia’s Bećarac.

Waves of blue!
