Searching for prices...
Thank you for your patience.
You’ve already booked a campsite in Croatia and are now getting ready to set off on your trip? To help you plan a carefree vacation, we have compiled our best recommendations in one place. Browse all of our topics and click on the links for more information.
We have prepared a checklist with everything you might need on a camping trip. Download the checklist and use it while packing to ensure you bring everything you need.
Before setting off on your trip, study and compare fuel prices in Croatia and other European countries to see where you can get more bang for your buck. Also, be careful when choosing a pump at gas stations because premium fuel is usually significantly more expensive, and the differences in names can be hard to spot.
If you’re planning to travel to Croatia via the Austrian and Slovenian motorways, you will need to purchase a vignette. Check the prices and validity of vignettes in these two countries for 2025 here.
Want to avoid paying for a vignette in Slovenia? You can find a suggested route without one in our guide.
Croatia does not use vignettes. Instead, there are tolls, and you pay as you go. You can pay tolls in cash, by card, or with an ENC device that you can top up. Note that cash payments are not accepted at all exits.
The toll price depends on the distance traveled and the vehicle category. Campers fall into Category 2. However, when paying by card or ENC, the system may incorrectly classify your vehicle as Category 3, which is more expensive. If this happens, press the red help button, and a staff member will assist you and change your category.
If you are traveling to Croatia in the summer, expect traffic jams on the motorway. That’s why it’s important to always have enough food and water with you in case you get stuck in traffic. You can check the current traffic report here at any time.
We recommend researching and booking your ferry in advance, especially for some of the busier routes. Learn more about ferry routes and how to book a ferry here and remember to arrive at the port at least one hour before departure to secure your spot.
Croatian beaches are definitely one of the reasons our guests keep coming back. And this year, there’s an added incentive to visit: Croatia was awarded the title of having the cleanest sea in Europe. So don’t spend all your time at the campsite beach. Take the opportunity to explore the rest of the Croatian coast.

In addition to tips on preparing for a trip with your pet, our article includes a map of dog-friendly beaches across the Adriatic, which will definitely come in handy if it’s your first time visiting.
Whether you’re looking for groceries, local delicacies, or souvenirs, our tips can help you avoid the typical tourist traps. Check if there are large supermarkets or shopping centers near your campsite and consider if it’s worth venturing a little further to shop. Keep in mind that these places can be crowded, so it’s best to shop early in the morning.
In Croatia, the majority of residents drink almost exclusively tap water, but caution is advised in some situations. Find out more about this topic here.
While most places in Croatia accept cards, some only accept cash. That’s why we’ve put together an overview of ATM fees in Croatia.
Although almost all Croatian campsites offer free WiFi, the network can sometimes become overloaded due to the high number of users. If you want a stable internet connection throughout your vacation, check out our overview of the available options.
If you have any questions about the facilities and amenities at the campsite you booked, check its website, where you will find a section with frequently asked questions and answers.
We hope you won’t need them, but it’s a good idea to familiarize yourself with the emergency numbers in Croatia before your trip. That way, you can contact the appropriate authorities in a timely manner in case of an emergency.
