As a UK citizen, you&#8217;ll need a valid passport to enter Croatia (which has been an EU member state since 2013 and a Schengen area member since 2023). Make sure your passport has enough validity \u2014 at least three months beyond your planned departure date from Croatia.<\/p>\n<p>Don&#8217;t forget your European Health Insurance Card (EHIC) or UK Global Health Insurance Card (GHIC), and definitely take out travel insurance (we recommend <strong><a class=\"thirstylink\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Safety Wing\" href=\"https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/doporucujeme\/safety-wing\/\" data-shortcode=\"true\">SafetyWing<\/a><\/strong>). If you&#8217;re driving, make sure you have a valid driving licence and appropriate car insurance.<\/p>\n<p>As for money, Croatia uses the euro, so have enough cash for tolls and smaller expenses. Although you can pay by card almost everywhere (we recommend trying <strong><a class=\"thirstylink\" rel=\"nofollow noopener sponsored\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Revolut\" href=\"https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/doporucujeme\/revolut\/\" data-shortcode=\"true\">Revolut<\/a><\/strong> for great exchange rates), cash comes in handy for toilets on the road or in smaller shops. If you&#8217;re driving through Slovenia or Austria, keep some coins ready for motorway tolls there too.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"630\" src=\"https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/plitvicka-jezera-5.jpg\" alt=\"Plitvice Lakes \u2013 Croatia\" class=\"wp-image-96225\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/plitvicka-jezera-5.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/plitvicka-jezera-5-300x158.jpg 300w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/plitvicka-jezera-5-700x368.jpg 700w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/plitvicka-jezera-5-768x403.jpg 768w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/plitvicka-jezera-5-696x365.jpg 696w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\"><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Plitvice Lakes \u2013 Croatia<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Clothing_for_All_Occasions\"><\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Clothing_for_All_Occasions\"><\/span>Clothing for All Occasions<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Even though you&#8217;re heading off on a summer holiday, don&#8217;t forget to pack clothes for cooler evenings. The Croatian coast can be surprisingly chilly in the evening, especially on the northern islands or during windy weather.<\/p>\n<p>Your basic wardrobe should include several swimsuits (at least two, so one can dry while you wear the other), light summer clothing such as T-shirts, vests, shorts, and dresses (for example, the <strong><a class=\"thirstylink\" rel=\"nofollow noopener sponsored\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"nanoSPACE \u0161aty Travel\" href=\"https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/doporucujeme\/nanospace-saty-travel\/\" data-shortcode=\"true\">Travel<\/a><\/strong> or <strong><a class=\"thirstylink\" rel=\"nofollow noopener sponsored\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"nanoSPACE \u0161aty Oslo Summer\" href=\"https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/doporucujeme\/nanospace-saty-oslo-summer\/\" data-shortcode=\"true\">Oslo Summer<\/a><\/strong> dresses). However, also pack a hoodie or jumper, long trousers, and a light jacket for cooler evenings. Don&#8217;t forget a hat or cap to protect you from the intense sun.<\/p>\n<p>As for footwear, pack flip-flops or sandals for everyday wear, sturdier shoes for excursions, and definitely water shoes. Croatian beaches are mostly rocky or pebbly, so water shoes are essential to protect your feet from sharp stones and sea urchins.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1800\" height=\"1200\" src=\"https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/5P5A1406.jpg\" alt=\"What to pack for a holiday in Croatia\" class=\"wp-image-59873\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/5P5A1406.jpg 1800w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/5P5A1406-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/5P5A1406-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/5P5A1406-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/5P5A1406-1536x1024.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1800px) 100vw, 1800px\"><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">What to pack for a holiday in Croatia<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Beach_Essentials\"><\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Beach_Essentials\"><\/span>Beach Essentials<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>For your time on the beach, make sure to pack high-SPF sunscreen, as the Croatian sun can be incredibly intense. After-sun lotion will help soothe your skin after a full day of sunbathing. Sunglasses with UV protection are an absolute must.<\/p>\n<p>Bringing your own beach towels is practical, as you can use them anytime and anywhere. A beach mat or lightweight foam pad is also handy on rocky beaches, where sunbed hire can be quite pricey.<\/p>\n<p>If you enjoy snorkelling, bring a mask, snorkel, and fins. The Croatian sea offers an amazing underwater world and it would be a shame to miss it.

Before setting off, thoroughly check your vehicle, top up all fluids, and make sure you have the required safety equipment for each country you&#8217;ll be passing through.<\/p>\n<p>When driving through Austria and Slovenia, you&#8217;ll need a reflective vest for each passenger. Have enough euros ready for Croatian motorway tolls \u2014 guard your toll ticket carefully, as losing it can result in a hefty fine (though these days, many things can be arranged online in advance).<\/p>\n<p>Pack plenty of drinking water, basic toiletries, and snacks that can withstand higher temperatures. If you&#8217;re travelling with children, don&#8217;t forget window sun shades for the rear windows and entertainment for the long drive.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1800\" height=\"1200\" src=\"https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/punta-planka.jpg\" alt=\"Croatia\" class=\"wp-image-59875\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/punta-planka.jpg 1800w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/punta-planka-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/punta-planka-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/punta-planka-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/punta-planka-1536x1024.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1800px) 100vw, 1800px\"><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Croatia<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Travelling_with_Children\"><\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Travelling_with_Children\"><\/span>Travelling with Children<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>If you&#8217;re travelling with children, you&#8217;ll need some extra preparation.
