Dispatches from Croatia

View over terracotta-roofed houses and apartment blocks among trees, down to the sea on the Croatian coast

Much to the despair of Chris, OP operations manager, I’ve just had two weeks off to mooch up the Dalmatian coast with girlfriend in tow. From city to city and island to island, the entire place was extremely beautiful and the people were massively welcoming. All in all it was well worth a visit. I’m not quite sure how I managed to fit so much in whilst taking so many photos though… I even came across Croatia’s answer to Nigel.

A pale pink scooter with a black top box parked against a mossy stone wall in a sunlit lane

Someone in an open white shirt, pale shorts and black shoes walking down a cracked, sunlit lane with a green carrier bag

Clear dark green water against the corner of a pale stone quay, a shadow falling across the paving

Silhouette of someone sat on a wall looking out over the sea to a wooded headland and the coast below

A sunlit blue bay seen through pine trees, wooded shores all round and a lone swimmer in the water

A narrow cobbled lane between stone houses with shutters, stone steps and potted plants by the doors

Small white boats moored in a clear turquoise harbour, a hillside town of pale houses and orange roofs behind

Sun setting behind cloud over a calm sea and distant islands, with a rocky shore in silhouette

Someone smiling broadly in a red Lacoste polo shirt on a sunny terrace, white houses and greenery behind

A still lake between wooded hills at dusk, tall reeds and grasses in the foreground

Three people resting on a rocky path above a lake, one with a large black rucksack, among autumn trees

Waterfalls pouring down a mossy cliff into a clear pool, a faint rainbow in the spray and a tree stump in front

Looking down through trees into a wooded gorge with pale rocky cliffs and a turquoise lake below

View from a dark room through an open window with green frames onto a stone wall and a calm grey sea

A small town of white houses with orange roofs in a green valley, vines and a winding road in front, wooded hills behind

Looking up at tall palm trees against a deep blue sky, the sun flaring through the fronds beside a stone building

Stone houses with green shutters, terracotta roofs and TV aerials, seen over the top of a stone wall

View through a stone arch over a sprawl of terracotta rooftops, with hills and mountains in the distance

A shadowy stone alley opening onto a sunlit bell tower against a clear blue sky

Looking up between a yellow building and a dark stone wall with green shutters, clouds in a blue sky

A city of red roofs by the sea with mountains behind, seen over a stone balustrade and cypress trees
