Croatia, a Mediterranean country in Southeastern Europe, is popular for coastal and cultural tourism, featuring unpolluted marine areas, nature reserves, and 116 Blue Flag beaches. Besides coastal nautical tourism, inland areas offer agrotourism, mountain resorts, and spas. Zagreb is a major city, and the country was ranked first in Europe for swimming water quality as of 2022.

  • Approach discussions regarding the 1990s conflict with respect. Locals prefer to be viewed as Mediterranean or Central European rather than 'Balkan.' Use local greetings. While the country is secular, many Croats are adherents of Roman Catholicism. When driving in rural areas, it is customary to wave thanks to other drivers who yield the right-of-way.
