Three places in Croatia

TROGIR//PRIMOSTEN//KRKA
 

Trogir

Trogir is a very interesting city,
I loved the typical next-to-the-sea feeling you get there.
There are many tight and cute alleys with small souvenir shops
(a lot of them also selling handmade things by local artists!).
 
A restaurant recommendation would be Piccolo Ponte.
It is a lovely restaurant offering delicious foods as pizza and local food specialities.
There are many restaurants as well at the riva but I wouldn't recommend them as much
since they are quite tight and rushed.
 
The riva it self is a wonderful place for a walk besides the sea, boats, palm trees, ice cream and ancient buildings. 

 

 
 Primosten 

If you are looking for a wonderful beach to spend the day at Primosten would be a very good decision.
The beach is pretty huge but there aren't too many tourists, there is enough space and you can also rent loungers and a beach umbrella for an affordable price.
 
The water is just wonderful!
 It is clear and turquoise-blue-ish, the temperature of the water refreshing but not too cold.
 
An about 5-minute walk leads you from the beach to the city and on the way there are many small cafes and restaurants.
The city itself is quite small, still there are restaurants, shops and you can take a walk to the church.





 

Krka
 
Krka is a huge national park most famous for its incredible waterfalls.
 I went there via Skradin by ship. The ship ticket is included into the entrance ticket for the national park.
You have to calculate some time for the ticket queue in Skradin.
 
Now about the national park itself, I'm not sure whether I shall start with the positive or negative aspects.
 
Let's go for the positive first.
The nature there is absolutely beautiful, as I like to say "nature is a natural beauty".
There are many animals and the water looks stunning.
 
 It could be a magical place, it could, wouldn't there be that horrible mass of tourists!
I couldn't stand and enjoy the wonderful view because you constantly have to walk in order not to be run over by all the people.
Everything just felt so rushed and there is a small section in front of the waterfalls in which you're allowed to swim but I think it would take 1 hour to even get to the water through all these people.
 
 I assume that it would be cleverer to go there outside the tourist season,
maybe in june or september since it is definitely worth to be seen.
