The natural beauty of Croatia is unparalleled. Travelers swarm to this region to see the natural spectacle of vast, flowing waterfalls and terraced pools, deep valleys, rivers, and expansive lakes. Its stunning karst environment was formed by water. Not to add that it boasts a stunning coastline.

Plitvice Lakes

The Croatian lakes of Plitvice are the most well-known, and for good reason. The 300 square kilometer park’s main draws are 16 interconnected lakes that span a distance of 8 kilometers and are connected by gorgeous boardwalk walks. Entrance 1 welcomes you with a breathtaking landscape of craggy cliffs topped with lush forest and waterfalls in all directions. The Croatia Lakes National Park offers a variety of walking options, as well as a shuttle service between the top and lower portions.

Our best advice is to get there as early as possible to enjoy the park when it’s still somewhat calm. Between pools that range in color from vivid turquoise to emerald green, you’ll meander. You are surrounded by lush vegetation in the spring and summer, and a riot of deep reds and oranges in the fall. Even in the winter, you can visit some areas to observe the park covered in a mystical layer of snow. You may stroll along the boardwalks along the river, stop at a few lookout spots for the best panoramas, and take in the enchanting singing of the water as it dances into the pools below from practically every direction.

Mljet Lakes

Two of Croatia’s most beautiful lakes are located on the island of Mljet, which has a sizable portion designated as a national park. It’s a simple day journey by ferry from the mainland, such as Dubrovnik, but you may also extend your stay on what is regarded as Croatia’s most picturesque island. Veliko and Malo Jezero (Large and Small Lake) are the names of two saltwater lakes that are well-known for swimming, canoeing, and snorkeling in addition to being great for hiking and cycling.

While the Large Lake’s center is home to a small islet with a former Benedictine monastery that is now a cafe-restaurant, the smaller saltwater lake is typically a little warmer and calmer for swimming. Take a small boat out to the island while you’re here for a spectacular experience and some substantial Dalmatian food or freshly baked pizza. Both the small coves and caves that skirt the coast and the interior of the island near the lakes are worth investigating.

Baćina Lakes

These seven freshwater Croatian lakes are only a few kilometers from Ploče and provide a serene respite from the activity along the Adriatic Coast. Outdoor activities take center stage in this lush, heavily forested depression between the undulating hills, and there is truly something for everyone. Take a long trek or bike ride around the lakes, go birdwatching with your binoculars, go on a boat picture safari, or spend the day kayaking or stand-up paddle boarding.

The final two are ideal for discovering all of your chosen lake’s secret coves and inlets. You might discover a delightfully isolated beach, a sunny area, or a freshwater waterfall. You can spend the entire day on these deserted lakes and hardly encounter anyone, or you can visit some of the laid-back beach bars and cafes hidden along the shore for some companionship, albeit they aren’t very crowded. Before you leave, try some locally produced fig meals or items as the area is well recognized for its excellent figs.

Lake Krušćica

One of Croatia’s most stunning man-made lakes, Lake Kruica on the Lika River was made possible by a dam that also inundated a community. The lake’s eerie atmosphere is enhanced by the sunken settlement, which is usually visited by residents who enjoy kayaking, hiking, and cycling there in peace. At this off-the-beaten-path location, you won’t likely encounter many tourists, but the lake is a favorite for weekend or holiday fishing because it has a significant population of large carp and other native fish.

The rocky beach is surrounded by a huge forest that is worth exploring in a kayak since you might find a sunny cove all to yourself. Bring a picnic for the perfect day out! It takes some effort to get here—about two hours from Zadar and three from Zagreb—and it’s probably worthwhile to stay the night. But the lake’s isolation from Croatia’s larger cities is precisely what keeps it a tranquil hidden gem.

Lake Peruća

The Cetina River is dammed to form Lake Perua, which slows the river’s flow as it surges through the breathtaking karst environment. This lake is one of Croatia’s lesser-known and less-visited lakes despite being a short day trip from Split (about an hour’s drive), drawing only a small number of visitors looking for solitude, clean air, and the great outdoors.

Along with swimming, cycling, fishing, and hiking are popular activities. Kayaking is one of the greatest ways to explore the lake’s vast size and to feel highly adventurous at the same time, as it is with many lakes in Croatia. You can go on a guided tour or rent your own boat for a few hours so you can explore the lake’s remote coves on your own. Along with various hiking paths that go deep into the nearby hills and forests, the area also has a number of monasteries and chapels.
