When creating your list of the best places to visit in Croatia, the city of Dubrovnik is likely to be at the top of it. After a day spent exploring the bustling town and gorgeous weather in Dubrovnik, travel ten minutes to Kamp Solitudo.

Not only is it close to the city, but Kamp Solitudo is also a mere five-minute stroll to the beach. So you can immediately wash away the grime of your day, or be the first there the next morning.

Camping Stobreč Split
Put Svetog Lovre 6, 21311, Stobreč, Croatia, 43.504135, 16.526505
Split is the second-largest city in Croatia and has plenty of campsites to choose from, but our favourite is Camping Stobreč Split.
