If you're a fan of Game of Thrones, it's likely that you'll have found yourself dreaming of a holiday to Croatia, one of the filming locations for the hit TV series.

The fictional landscapes have become as popular as the blood-drenched gripping storylines, with King's Landing - which is filmed near the coastal Croatian town of Dubrobnik - being one of the most popular.

And it’s not hard to see why: Dubrovnik Old Town dates back to the 16th century and is encircled by magnificent stone walls that are lapped by the glistening Adriatic Sea. A UNESCO world heritage site, it is consolidating its place as an upmarket travel destination with a flurry of smart hotels.

But there is plenty more to discovery beyond Dubrovnik’s medieval walls. Croatia is blessed with a smattering of idyllic islands.

From the secluded beauty of Lastovo island to the marbled beauty of Hvar Town, browse our gallery above for our edit of the best places to visit on the Croatian coast.
