    Cruising the ADRIATICBest of Slovenia and Croatia aboard Queen Eleganza • September 10–21, 2021 Dear National Trust Traveler, Over the course of many millennia, a succession of civilizations—from the Byzantine and Ottoman Empires to the Crusades and the Renaissance— swept across the Eastern shores of the Adriatic Sea, leaving behind a wealth of architectural and cultural treasures. In a region well worth exploring for its natural beauty alone, you will visit spellbinding archaeological sites, impressive cathedrals, dramatic palaces, and ancient city centers that illuminate the layered history of the Dalmatian Coast. Begin in Slovenia’s capital city, Ljubljana, a city with roots dating back to Roman times. Discover magical Lake Bled, monumental karst caves, and mountain aeries before continuing to Rovinj, Croatia to begin your 7-night Adriatic cruise. Sail along the Croatian coast from the Istrian Peninsula to Dubrovnik, calling at Veliki Brijun Island, Pula, Zadar, Split, Hvar, and Korčula along the way. A leisurely pace allows for free time in town to sample local cuisine and mingle with locals. Launched in 2018, the intimate Queen Eleganza yacht features a casual ambiance and the ability to call at small, inviting islands and ports not accessible to large cruise ships. With space for only 28 travelers, this program will likely fill quickly and I encourage you to reserve your place today! Sincerely, Meg Annacone-Poretz Director, National Trust Tours For information on this or other National Trust Tours, call (888) 484-8785.

  • CBD First National Report
    30 PART 1.: AN OVERVIEW OF THE STATE OF BIOLOGICAL AND LANDSCAPE DIVERSITY IN CROATIA Threats to biological communities in the Adriatic Anthropogenic impacts pose a constant threat to living communities in shallow coastline areas. This primarily refers to building works carried out on the coast, to backfilling and consequential mudding of some parts of the sea, to solid waste disposal and particularly to pollution by unpurified waste waters of municipal and industrial origin. These factors pose threat to living communities of supralittoral and mediolittoral zones, and especially meadows of sea flowers Posidonia oceanica and Zostera marina (Box 27) belonging to communities of the infralittoral zone. A highly intensive process of filling up the coastal sea with diverse building and earthworks wastes is adversely affecting the settlements of various algae of genus Cystoseria, including the settlements of the endemic brown alga Adriatic wrack (Fig. 46) that has almost completely disappeared from some polluted parts of the Adriatic (western coast of Istria, Split, etc.). The degradation of ecological balance of benthonic ecosystems is also a result of excessive fishing for economic and sport reasons, including the ravaging of individual divers. In the shallow sea man particularly threatens the complex communities of photophilous algae and meadows of Posidonia oceanica, while in the depths of the sea the communities of the detrital bottom are most threatened due to consequences of natural stress conditions, and the communities of the muddy bottom due to excessive trawling. The immigration (or introduction) of the tropical green algae Caulerpa in the northern Mediterranean in 1984 represents another threat to biological diversity of the Figure 48.

HOTEL REMISENS PALACE 4*, Opatija The hotel is located only 1 minute on foot from the seafront. One of the most renowned hotels in Opatija, the Remisens Premium Grand Hotel Palace is set in a recently renovated Secession building, beautifully located along the main street facing the sea. In summer evenings you can enjoy themed dinners and musical events on the large hotel’s terrace. The rooms are decorated in pastel colours and are equipped with a flat-screen cable TV, AC, Wi-Fi… The hotel features a spa, wellness centre, indoor pool with heated seawater, a peaceful relaxation area, Finnish and Turkish saunas… A variety of massages and beauty treatments are available. The elegant, air- conditioned restaurant serves a buffet breakfast. The nearest pebble beach is only a 10-minute walk from the hotel. OPATIJA Opatija was the one of the first towns to develop tourism in Croatia and on the Adriatic Sea. Austrian secession architecture is the predominant building style, a reminder of the mid-19th century when the main visitors were the Central European upper class and political elite. Opatija still today remains a synonym for a stylish travel destination. We suggest a stroll on the Lungomare, a seaside promenade (the longest in Croatia with 12 km) connecting the fishing towns of Volosko and Lovran.
