Legend has it that Croatian campsites are some of the best in Europe

The most famous and visited campsites in Croatia are probably Plitvice Lakes National Park, Krka National Park and the islands of Cres and Lošinj. But there are plenty more where you can find peace and quiet in beautiful surroundings, away from the crowds.

Here's an overview of two campsites in Croatia, one south of Senj and one on the Island of Krk

RAČA EUROCAMP

The Campsite Rača in the Kvarner area of Croatia is a superb place to stay if you are looking for a quiet and clean campsite with good facilities and close to the sea and town centre.

The campsite is in a great location in a beautiful setting with two beaches nearby and only few kilometers from Senj and the town of Crikvenica.

The whole site is very well maintained and had an excellent onsite bar and restaurant, good WiFi access and even a small shop selling snacks and drinks all at very reasonable prices. The owners are also lovely people who were very helpful and will help you out with anything you need.

The pitches are spacious, flat, level and grassy with a good amount of shade from pine trees on some pitches. All pitches had an electrical hook up point but there was plenty of space between each pitch so it didn't feel crowded or cramped at all.

The toilets were spotless with plenty of hot water for washing up after meals or showers.

It is much easier to enter the campsite from the South entrance
