CNN Travel has published a list of the what they rate as the best 11 beaches in Croatia.

After praising Croatia’s pristine Adriatic Coast, CNN compiled their pick of the best from Istria in the north to Dalmatia in the south.

“More than 100 Croatian beaches have earned blue flag status for their remarkable purity on land and in the sea. Much of this is thanks to the white pebbles that cover most beaches in the country, keeping the water a clear, jewelry-grade tone of turquoise,” CNN writes.
