May in Croatia is the beginning of the beach season at the sea resorts of the country. Tours to Croatia in May - an excellent option for those who do not like exhausting heat. Moreover, nature in Croatia, which is already very picturesque, is literally bursting with colors in May. It is obligatory to go to this time to visit the natural places of the country - nature reserves and national parks, the most famous of which will be Krka and Plitvice Lakes.
As for the rest on the sea coast, the weather will only be favorable to this. The average temperature during the day will be about +18 ... + 25 ° C, at night it will be cooler, so you need to take warm things with you. But if there is sunny weather, you can swim safely in the sea, especially since the water in it will warm up to +20 ° C.
The whole of Croatia is divided into three resort areas: Istria, South Dalmatia and Central Dalmatia.
The best are the small pebbly beaches of Middle Dalmatia, but in Istria there will be mostly artificial concrete platforms. Almost all the beaches are municipal, the entrance is free for tourists and for the local population.
Do not be afraid that the sun will fry too much: firstly, in May it does not warm up at full strength, but from the sea it blows pleasant breeze. And secondly, the beaches in Croatia are unique: the pine forests descend here to the water, so their crowns will protect you from the scorching rays.
As for excursions, it is worth to visit the capital of Croatia - Zagreb. It is a very beautiful ancient city, in which historical sights have been preserved to the present day. It is also worthwhile to go on a bus tour to the city of Zadar with medieval fortress walls. Deserted ancient cities - Hum, Dvigrad, Naked Island deserve special attention.
