The Island Cres

Croatia boasts wonderful scenic coastlines with crystal blue waters and the seas around the Island of Cres are as blue and clear as can be. You will often see dolphins frolicking around the island and other fish are plentiful in these clean waters. This is as stunning a place as anywhere else in the country for a holiday home and an apartment in Croatia’s Cres Island is a much sought treat. Just a short boat ride away, if you can’t find holiday accommodation on the island proper, an apartment in Istria is a nice second choice.

Cres is the largest island in the Adriatic and boasts 66 kilometres
of coastline with exquisite pebble beaches on the western and southern shores while to the north and the east there are magnificent rock faces
that drop dramatically into the Adriatic Sea.  You will find the beautiful freshwater Vranskolakeon Cres but to keep it as clean and pure as it is, it is off limits to the public at all times. The surrounding areas are absolutely stunning with beautiful flora and fauna this gorgeous inland lake it is certainly worth visiting.

The northern area of the island is highly forested whilst the middle and the southern part of Cres is lush pastureland and thick scrubland. There are many indigenous plants to be found on the island and in the spring time the air is wonderfully scented with their perfumes. The very rare Griffon vulture can be found high on the escarpments of the eastern coast which is one of its last habitats in Europe.

The island of Cres is steeped in history and its main town is built on the ancient sites of Crexa and Crepsa. The 15th century Palace of the Petric family is an historical monument and its

its glorious Gothic architecture stands proudly as a museum today. High up in the hills Lubenice is an ancient fortified town that sits quietly on a cliff overlooking the sea and the lovely pebble beach in Sveti Ivan Bay.

If you want to find a traditional Croatian apartment to stay in when you visit Cres, there are some wonderful locations to choose from both on the coast or inland -way up in the mountains where you will have some spectacular vistas over the Adriatic. The air is filled with the scent of all the aromatic herbs that grow prolifically all over the island. These wonderful herbs are used extensively in food in Croatia to give the dishes that distinctive and wonderful taste.If you have found a holiday home on the island or an apartment in Istria, taking the herbs back and using them with fresh produce picked up that day is a great way to enjoy your won take on a traditional meal.
