Croatia's tourism statistics over the past month show that this summer's season has been better than many expected given the chaos with the coronavirus. According to the eVisitor system, in July 2021, Croatia had 3.7 million arrivals and 25 million overnight stays - 47% and 33% more than in the same period last year, respectively. These numbers are just 20% below the record-breaking July 2019 results.
In just the first seven months of this year, Croatia had 6.3 million arrivals and 36.9 million overnight stays. Guests from Germany (6.8 million), Slovenia (5.2 million) and Poland (3.3 million) spent the most nights in Croatia.
“The results so far in 2021 are an indicator that despite the pandemic, with good preparation and cooperation of all stakeholders in tourism, but also beyond, Croatia can be a safe and successful tourist destination. The trends are very good and in July this year, we are achieving even better results from some markets, such as Poland and the Czech Republic, than in July 2019. This gives us the right to be optimistic, but also cautious and responsible, we adhere to epidemiological measures and thus maintain the status of the safest destination in the Mediterranean,” said Minister of Tourism and Sports Nikolina Brnjac.
