COVID -19 cases have dropped and the vaccinations that were slow to roll out have now picked up. Croatia has a population of 4 million and there are predictions that by mid-summer nearly 50 percent of the population will be vaccinated.
The tourists who will be permitted to enter Croatia will be mostly from the United States and a large part of Europe and travelers from the 27-nation bloc, who will be able to show either vaccination certificates, a negative test report, or a fully COVID -19 recovered certificate. Direct flights that are expected to start in July between New York – Dubrovnik will ease travel for American tourists.
Croatia will be issuing strict health measures in place. Social distancing at bars and beaches will be strictly observed
