Cres
Today, Cres is largely focused on tourism, whose beginnings date back to 1845, which makes it the second place with the longest tourist tradition on the Adriatic. It is located in the bay, which enabled the development of fisheries, shipping and shipbuilding. The old town offers an insight into its past and present - narrow and tall houses lean against each other forming a maze. On some facades of the buildings, old coats of arms are still visible, denoting the occupations of the people who lived in them. In the past, the old town was surrounded by high walls and the city could be entered through three city gates.

I had a pleasant time learning about the town's medieval history. I particularly enjoyed feasting my eyes on the magnificent towers, gates, and fortifications in Cres.

We had a memorable trip to Cres and on its beautiful expansive terraces, we sampled delicious seafood especially the crispy shrimps. The sea cuisine here is just unrivaled.

During our trip to Cres, we had a fantastic night sailing the sea. We enjoyed the cool night breezes and the star gazing left me in deep contemplation as I enjoyed a glass of wine on the beautiful boat.

Cres town has some nice drinking spots and during my visit, I enjoyed the cocktails and beers served with a view of the sea. Cres is very lively and has some good vibes until late into the night.

I had a delightful trip to Cres where I stayed in one of the guest houses in town. The guest house had spacious clean rooms and the hosts were very friendly and charming.
