How safe is Croatia for solo female travelers?

Travel safety index

4.7 /5

based on 132 experiences from female travelers

Hvar, Solo travel

Island is beautiful, clear water and nice beaches with very good connections to other islands, so daily trips are also an option. Food and hospitality is the thing that can be much better, especially comparing to prices. Hvar as a city is beautiful by day and night too, but clubbing after 12 is not allowed.

Trogir, Family travel

It was a lovely small town with nice beaches. The old town where you can find beautiful spots to eat were not so expensive to expensive so you can find both. I would say if you wanted to go to museums it is kind of expensive in the town and there is not much to see but you are close to other cities so you can definitely explore there to but for a beach vacation it is the perfect spot with many nice beaches and a nice old town to come back to to eat something

Zadar, Solo travel

Zadar is a really small coast city, has a beautiful centre plus is really good for a relaxing days at the beach. I recommend 3 days there to enjoy and try to go for different beaches but rent a car if possible

I lived in Zagreb my entire life and I can tell you it's pretty safe. There's hardly been a report of theft, murder, assault or anything such those. I feel safe in Zagreb because I've not thought about being kidnapped or assaulted in any way, let alone being afraid of it.

Feel free to go out when you want, wearing what ever you want. Ofcourse, every woman will feel safer when they are in a group of friends or people but overall I really think that Croatia as a country is safer than most countries
