The British newspaper The Telegraph, based on the votes of its readers – around 20,000 people voted – has awarded the Telegraph Travel Awards 2025 for the most desirable destinations in the world. In the category, which includes evaluation by region, Croatia ranked 6th on the list of the best European countries this year , immediately behind it are Spain and France, while the European list is led by Greece.
“This vote, conducted by one of the most powerful media outlets in the UK, confirmed Croatia’s status as an exceptionally recognizable destination in the Mediterranean that has a wide range of offerings and the possibility of entering the top of the most desirable destinations for tourists from the UK, who are very engaged travelers and who, despite economic and security challenges, like to visit other countries and spend their holidays that way,” said Bisera Fabrio, Director of the Croatian Tourist Board’s Representative Office in the UK.
