Croatia

Croatians are often referred to as refugees in the context of the Yugoslav Wars during the 1990s, when many civilians were displaced due to the conflict following the breakup of Yugoslavia. As fighting escalated, particularly during the Croatian War of Independence (1991-1995), large numbers of Croatians fled their homes to escape violence, ethnic cleansing, and persecution. This led to a significant refugee crisis, with many seeking safety in neighboring countries and beyond. The term reflects the historical plight and struggles faced by these individuals during that tumultuous period.

No, it’s not overrated at all. In fact, it far exceeded my expectations. The landscapes are stunning, from the crystal-clear waters to the charming coastal towns, and even in the more touristy spots like Dubrovnik, there’s an authentic vibe that makes it feel special rather than overrun with tourists.

What really made the trip memorable was the balance between iconic sights and the quieter, local spots that gave me a true feel for the country. Split was a complete surprise — lively and full of character — and the moments of peace by the sea or in narrow, cobblestone streets gave the trip a grounding, personal touch.

So no, Croatia isn’t overrated. It’s a place with something for everyone, and how much you enjoy it depends on how you approach it. I captured everything from my trip in a guide on Pinerary, where you can get a more detailed look at what made the experience so special.

The flight from Hawaii to Croatia typically takes around 16 to 18 hours, including at least one layover.

Be prepared for a long journey with multiple legs, but the stunning Croatian coast is worth the trip!

Croatia is usually six hours ahead of New York.

(There is an average of 3½ weeks per year in which Croatia is five hours ahead of New York due to the United States and Europe starting and ending Daylight Saving Time/ Summer Time on different dates.
