Pharmacy
In Croatia pharmacists sell over-the-counter medicines for minor illnesses, but for more serious problems you will need a prescription that can be issued by a private doctor or filled by the so-called 'Ljekarna', the equivalent of a pharmacy and easily recognisable by the lit green sign. In most cases, pharmacists do accept the prescription even if it is issued abroad.

Passport & Visa

Passport & Visa

Citizens of European Union (EU) and European Economic Area (EEA) countries do not need a visa to enter Croatia, only a valid ID. Many other countries, including the United Kingdom, United States, Canada, United Arab Emirates, Australia, and New Zealand, benefit from visa-free entry for short stays of up to 90 days within a 180-day period. Visitors from visa-exempt countries must hold a valid passport and, starting in late 2025, will need to apply for an ETIAS (European Travel Information and Authorisation System) authorisation online before travelling. For those requiring a visa, such as travellers from some Middle-East, African or Asian nations, a Schengen visa must be obtained prior to arrival. All travellers should ensure their passport is valid for at least three months beyond their intended stay.

Best Time to Visit

Best Time to Visit

When in Rijeka, the crystal-clear waters of the Adriatic Sea, fascinating history, delicious seafood and wine will surround you. The best time to visit Rijeka is from May to early June and from September to October, when the crowds of tourists haven't yet invaded every corner of the city. In these months, you can still enjoy sunbathing or any outdoor activity without spending too much. The peak season is from July to August, meaning that room rates are often higher. Winters, although cold, are known for being also one of the busiest seasons in Rijeka. Many events take place during this season, like the annual Rijeka Carnival; the biggest carnival held in Croatia.
