Zivogosce, Family travel
amazing small town with a beautiful sea and beautiful people. me and my family went there and almost visit each year. the place is not overcrowded like the neighbour place of makarska. there are not many events as the town is very small, but sometimes the city organises dinners and pub concerts.

Dugi Otok, Solo travel
I randomly discovered Dugi Otok while in Zadar traveling alone. In March, most seafood restaurants are still closed, but there are delightful little cafes full of fishermen and retired people, a welcoming local library that acts as a meeting space for the community, small towns, gorgeous cliffs and nature. I loved staying at the island in between cities, you feel very far away from the mainland even though the ferry takes barely any time. Locals are happy to talk to you and help with finding the bus, for example.

Croatian Nobles Square, Family travel
We spent a week at Croatia. I liked it, we was near to the water. The people was friendly. We travelled to more beaches, and I really liked them. They was clear and beautiful. We saw little stores as well, and my favourite knife is from Croatia. I felt safe alone as well, I even talked with a german woman at the beach at night in the moonlight. It was magical.

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

I live in Split for erasmus so i go at night a lot, usually in with other people but split really seen pretty safe, the most danger is probably the drunk people which could be here more in summer ( i live here only for 2 months so not sure about how it is in touristic season) but overall i would even go back from a club alone here so giving this place 3,5 stars safety in my head

It is a very safe place, you can go around at night safely. There are some creepy guys here and there, but for now I haven't heard any horror story from my friends nor they happened to me. I would suggest still having your guard up in the clubs.
