  • Split & Central Dalmatia
    © Lonely Planet Publications 216 Split & Central Dalmatia Central Dalmatia is the most action-packed, sight-rich and diverse part of Croatia, with dozens of castles, fascinating islands, spectacular beaches, dramatic mountains, quiet ports and an emerg- ing culinary scene, not to mention Split’s Diocletian Palace and medieval Trogir (both Unesco World Heritage sites). In short, this part of Croatia will grip even the most picky visitor. The region stretches from Trogir in the northwest to Ploče in the southeast. Split is its largest city and a hub for bus and boat connections along the Adriatic coast. The rugged DALMATIA DALMATIA 1500m-high Dinaric Range provides the dramatic background to the region. SPLIT & CENTRAL SPLIT & CENTRAL Diocletian’s Palace is a sight like no other (a Roman ruin and the living soul of Split) and it would be a cardinal Dalmatian sin to miss out on the sights, bars, restaurants and general buzz inside it. The Roman ruins in Solin are altogether a more quiet, pensive affair, while Trogir is a tranquil city that’s preserved its fantastic medieval sculpture and architecture. Then there is Hvar Town, the region’s most popular destination, richly ornamented with Renais- sance architecture, good food, a fun atmosphere and tourists – who are in turn ornamented with deep tans, big jewels and shiny yachts. Let’s not forget the coastline: you can choose from the slender and seductive Zlatni Rat on Brač, wonderful beaches in Brela on the Makarska Riviera, secluded coves on Brač, Šolta and Vis, or gorgeous (and nudie) beaches on the Pakleni Islands off Hvar.

  • Sava River Position Paper Prepared by Euronatur Supported by Croatian Society for Bird and Nature Protection (HDZPP) and Birdlife Slovenia (DOPPS)
    Sava River Position Paper Prepared by EuroNatur Supported by Croatian Society for Bird and Nature Protection (HDZPP) and BirdLife Slovenia (DOPPS) Introduction EuroNatur has been dedicated to nature conservation and the sustainable use of natural resources in the Sava River Basin for the last 25 years. In our role as an official observer of the Sava Commission EuroNatur has been following the processes of the Commission and the ongoing development of the Sava River Basin Management Plan with attention. Hereby we would like to comment on some questions related to further infrastructural development and regulation of the Sava River, which are urgent and alarming from our point of view. Moreover, we are offering recommendations and suggestions regarding these issues. Comments on the focus of the Sava Commission (ISRBC) The International Sava River Basin Commission (ISRBC) has been established for the purpose of realization of the following goals: I. Establishment of an international regime of navigation on the Sava River II. Establishment of sustainable water management III. Undertaking of measures to prevent or limit hazards Although the second goal includes the availability of “water in sufficient quantity and of appropriate quality for the preservation, protection and improvement of aquatic eco-systems (including flora and fauna and eco-systems of natural ponds and wetlands)” no working group was implemented that is adequately dealing with such issues as the monitoring and protection of the Sava River and connected aquatic ecosystems. Most publications that were elaborated by the ISRBC so far miss a clear reference to biodiversity and nature conservation topics, but deal with navigation and water management issues.
