If this year does indeed turn out to be the year of tourism stagnation, it might just speed up the processes that can bring about sustainability and a new growth model to Croatian tourism. Every tourist destination has its own limitations, especially if it doesn't work on its own  transformation in terms of infrastructure, content, and mode of promotion.

Tourism Minister Gari Cappelli talks investments, numbers and the desire for year-round tourism in Croatia.

In 2015, 1.6 million or 42.9% of the Croatian population aged 15 and over took at least one private overnight trip, states the data of the Central Bureau for Statistics (DZS) released today, 27 October, 2016. The total generated number of private trips was 5.7 million, of which 3.6 million (63.5%) were in Croatia, and 2.1 million (36.5%) were abroad.
