Croatia is an Eastern Europe country that hugs the Mediterranean turquoise coastline. Many cities are making access improvements for travellers in Croatia. To start, this website lists the beaches in Croatia with accessible features.
Of all the places in Croatia, the most accessible destinations are the following: the City of Varazdin, Istria, Povijesni muzej Istre, Pula, Crkva sv. Peregrina, Umag, and Freske u crkvi sv.
