Four years ago, all the world was abuzz about Croatia. The Dalmation Coast was the next French Riviera, they said. Hurry, before the development money arrives and all that idyllic beauty is marred by high-rise hotels and hordes of holiday-seekers. Today, much of the Adriatic coast and its rocky islands remain unspoiled, if less unknown. Intrepid travelers are also moving inland to medieval villages and coming back with news about the next wine region, the next Provence. A visit to the storied land of Croatia will make you feel like you've discovered something, too. Get the information, the maps, articles, and up-to-date hotel and restaurant recommendations that you need to plan your journey.
