Croatia for family holidays

Croatia is a popular destination among families with children. Dubrovnik, Split, Zadar - we recommend these beautiful Croatian cities this summer. Let's read about top attractions in Croatia!

Žnjan, Split's city beach, is a paradise for children. Specially prepared attractions, such as a bouncy castle, boats, slides and trampolines will not allow you kids to get bored. It is an interesting day trip idea to visit the Blue Cave on the island of Biševo in an archipelago in Central Dalmatia. Between 11:00 and 12:00, the sunshine reflects from the water surface giving the appearance of a blue glow, while objects in the water seem silver. That magical place will certainly nake a lasting impression on your children.

Dubrovnik offers many attractions for kids. You children will enjoy a ride in a cableway to the top of the Srd Hill, from which you can see the Old Town and many Croatian islands. Go for a walking trip on one of the numerous scenic routes. Climbing down the hill to the Old Town will take you around an hour. From Dubrovnik, you will take a ferry to the island of Lokrum, where you can visit second one of the top attraction for children. A natural reserve and a botanical garden, and children will meet wild peacocks and rabbits. As the location of the original Iron Throne, Lokrum is also popular among fans of the Game of Thrones series.

If you have a look at Zadar's Old Town from above, you can get a feeling that it is situated on an island. Indeed, it is surrounded by sea water from three sides, and separated from the land by a moat. The city has one of the most beautiful cathedrals in the entire Dalmatia, complete with a bell tower, a Romanesque church with a Baroque altar, a Roman forum which looks best at night, and the Sea Organ, which are played by… sea waves.

Amusement parks for children in Palma de Mallorca

Quite popular among families with children, Playa de Palma Beach is safe for children thanks to its very gentle approach to the sea. We recommend Port de Pollensa because of its beautiful views on the mountains and ideal conditions for children - soft sand, a playground and no crowds.

You must visit Palma de Mallorca's numerous amusement parks designed specially for children. The Forestal Park is a wooded park that will meet your kids' dreams about climbing trees. They will also enjoy climbing walls and Tarzan swings. The Katmandu Park offers a fabulous aquaparki, a 4D cinema and a minigolf course. But that is not all - there is also an extraordinary water part in the wild west theme called Western Water Park. The brave will slide down the Cola del Diablo or The Beast – the most vertical slide in the park. Wondering which park to visit? Ideally, all of them.

Majorca is a perfect island for family holidays. Your children will have an opportunity to try different water sports, from windsurfing, diving, board paddling, to kayaking, to fun on banana boats. Instil the love of water in your kids!
