Croatia Cruises in October

Although the temperatures start to cool for Croatia cruises in October, especially earlier in the month the mercury often reaches 72 degrees, ideal for enjoying the Mediterranean sun while the sea is still warm enough for swimming. This is an ideal time for discounted excursions and sightseeing without the crowds, including those popular “Game of Thrones” filming sites in Dubrovnik and beyond, as well as outdoor adventures like hiking without having to worry about heatstroke. If Istria is on your itinerary, you may be able to take advantage of Truffle Days. October is the peak time for white truffles, celebrated throughout the month with various food celebrations while many restaurants serve dishes featuring delectable truffles too. The early fall is often lovely in Croatia, just plan on packing a mix of clothing for both warm and cooler days along with a light rain jacket and you’ll be prepared to enjoy it all in comfort.
