Croatia is situated in the southeast of Europe and you can easily reach it by airplane, car, train and ferry-  depends on the country you live in and its proximity to Croatia.

By air

There are several international airports: Zagreb, Osijek, Pula, Rijeka, Zadar, Split, Brač and Dubrovnik. Several low cost companies operates and connecting Croatia with international destinations and many of them during summer season open additional lines. If
there are no direct flights it's always possible to fly to the nearest destination and continue your journey with ren- a car, ferry or train.

By ferry

Three ferry companies offer international lines from Italy that multiply in the summer season. - no services exist from any other European country. You can take ferries (or catamarans) from the ports of Venice, Ravenna, Cesenatico, Rimini, Pesaro, Ancona, Termoli or Bari to Croatia - which one you travel from depends on your destination.

For ones interesting in island hopping there are numerous lines connecting every inhabited island in Croatia - take a look on the Internet and find the best and cheapest possible route.

By car

To enter Croatia, a driver's license, an automobile registration card and vehicle insurance documents (including Green Card) are required. If you need road assistance, you should dial 987.

The majority of Croatia's visitors arrive by car due to a fact that the majority of Croatia's visitors come from nearby European countries - Italy, Germany, Austria, Hungary, and the Czech and Slovak Republics.

When since a few years ago a new high way that connects the southest point of Croatia to the northest was open, it is far more easy and less adventurous  to reach Croatia from north European countries.

To reach the middle Dalmatian islands, Croatian hot spot, it would be wise to drive all the way down to Split where you can take ferry to the island of your choice.

By train

The rail network connects all major Croatian cities, except Dubrovnik (you can take a train to Split then take
one of the frequent buses or the more scenic ferry to Dubrovnik, the train station is at the pier). There are direct lines from Austria, Czech Republic, Switzerland, Germany, Hungary, Slovenia, Italy, Bosnia and Herzegovina,
Serbia, and Greece. There are indirect lines from almost all other European countries. If you're travelling from northeast Italy - perhaps from Venice or Trieste - this can add on quite a few hours to your journey, in which case it is better to travel by bus
or ferry.
