Summer holidays by the sea are always a particular favourite among travellers. And while Italy and Greece have always been considered favourites, Croatia has suddenly emerged as a fierce competitor. Famous for its beautiful nature and rich history, Croatia is attracting tourists to its embrace, and the final blow to its popularity was delivered by the filming of Game of Thrones in Dubrovnik.

Experts predict that in the summer of 2024, other maritime countries with equally amazing adventures and unforgettable experiences will become more popular.



Planning a trip or move abroad? An important component of a successful trip is a travel insurance policy, as it guarantees high-quality medical care anywhere in the world and can protect you from unnecessary expenses while travelling.  You can buy insurance from trusted agents on the Visit World portal. 



Albania

Albania, once mysterious and inaccessible, now opens its arms to travellers. This country attracts with its freedom and hospitality. Deservedly recognised as one of the best tourist destinations, Albania shocks and amazes with its diversity: from white beaches to incendiary parties, from delicious cuisine to unique places for excursions.

The three main resort towns of Durrës, Vlora and Saranda have become Albania's trademark, but each coastal town has its own unique charm. The cleanest and most beautiful sea is in the south of the country, especially near the Greek border and the island of Corfu.

However, Albania is not just about beaches. Its nature is fascinating: low mountains, lakes and green forests. Lake Coman, or the Albanian Alps, is considered one of the most beautiful parts of the country, where mountains and forests hug the clear water of the lake, giving it a green-blue hue.

Moreover, Albania is an ideal option for those who want to relax without spending a lot of money. Here, you can enjoy all the benefits of a seaside holiday without burdening your budget. Albania, like a crystal pearl on the Adriatic coast, invites everyone to its attractive shores, promising unforgettable experiences and inspiring adventures.


Cyprus

Cyprus is a real magnet for tourists, attracting a variety of resorts, each with its own unique flavour. Limassol, the financial capital of the island, attracts businessmen with its well-equipped beaches, while youthful Ayia Napa never sleeps. Paphos is developing rapidly thanks to the island's airport, while Protaras specialises in children's activities. All these places welcome guests with genuine Cypriot hospitality.

The island attracts tourists not only with beach holidays but also with a unique blend of Eastern and Western cultures, which is manifested in historical monuments and streets of ancient fortress cities. Another fascinating aspect of Cyprus is its cuisine, which impresses with its flavour variety and quality of products. Here, culinary traditions are kept with great respect, and fresh meat and seafood always delight guests. Because in Cyprus, food quality is a top priority, and local farmers take special care of it.


Balearic Islands, Spain

The Balearic Islands are a real paradise for lovers of fun, beach holidays and natural beauty. Here, everyone can find something for themselves: from non-stop parties to relaxing walks among mountainous landscapes.

Majorca, the largest of the islands, is known for its endless beaches, clear waters of the Mediterranean Sea and mountain ranges with panoramic views. The capital of Mallorca, Palma, is the centre of the autonomous community of the Balearic Islands and a city where you will find many architectural treasures.

Ibiza, although smaller than Mallorca in area, surpasses it in popularity among night tourists. This island is famous for its parties and electronic music that rock the nightclubs. Even if you are not a fan of this kind of holiday, you will definitely want to visit at least one of these clubs to feel the drive and atmosphere of Ibiza.

Also, worth noting, is Menorca, an island that offers a relaxed atmosphere and fantastic beaches, ideal for families or couples.

Tour operators recommend planning your trip in advance, as these islands are among the most popular tourist destinations. By booking your holiday in advance, you will have the opportunity to enjoy a stress-free holiday, knowing that everything is already fixed and ready for your arrival.
