As Marina Ruso/Morski writes on the 2nd of February, 2019, after the well-known European Best Destination portal declared Zagreb as the best Christmas destination in Europe for three consecutive years, and the City of Zadar as the best European destination of 2016, this year has seen the charming town of Cavtat, otherwise Croatia's southernmost town, nominated for the prestigious title.
Cavtat can be found on the list of twenty destinations nominated for the best European destination in 2019, ranked with the likes of Genoa, Malaga, Budapest and even European giants such as London and Rome. After just the first week, Cavtat entered the list of the top ten destinations.
How can I vote?
Voting is extremely easy, just click HERE and in just a few seconds after having clicked on Cavtat, your vote will be cast. No registration is required on the page, but it is important to note that you can only vote once per week from one IP address. The competition will remain open until February the 5th.
Anyone who has visited Cavtat will agree that such small places which still manage to provide visitors with so much are rare. Cavtat, located in Konavle in the extreme south of Dalmatia, is rich in natural beauty, boasts an equally rich cultural and historical heritage, and its tourist offer standards are well and truly harmonised with the demands of today's tourists. The peace-content ratio that Cavtat offers makes it an extremely desirable destination for many, and now this nomination confirms that Konavle's gem can stand shoulder to shoulder with large European cities like London.
With this nomination, the European Best Destination portal ranked the picturesque southern Dalmatian town among the best in the following categories: "The Best Destination for Nature Lovers" and "The Best Romantic Destination".
''Just the nomination alone already means a lot and opens up additional opportunities for the development and the promotion of Cavtat, a year-round destination which continues to record tourism growth - a clear indication that it possesses an increasing importance on the travel list of many tourists from all over the world. We're happy that the European Best Destination association has recognised Cavtat, and we will be extremely pleased to have as many people join as possible to vote for Cavtat,'' said Frano Herendi, Director of the Tourist Board of the Municipality of Konavle.
