“The realization of tourist traffic so far shows that Croatia is positioned in many markets as a safe, quality and well-prepared destination. Currently, more than 100,000 tourists are staying in our country every day, and for the first time this year we exceeded that number on Friday, May 28th. We have now entered the month of June in which we expect further strengthening of tourist traffic, while the largest number of tourists are expected in the main summer months of July and August, for which we have very good announcements,” said the director of the Croatian Tourist Board, Kristjan Staničić.
