More than 110,000 British visitors in 2003
Croatia
TROUBLE in the Balkans knocked tourism in the region for six in the 1990s. Now, however, there are signs of re-emergence for what used to be one of our favourite places in the Med, Tom Chesshyre writes.
Croatia, which attracted 500,000 Britons each year in the 1980s, leads the way, with 20 tour operators offering trips there for the first time in 2003. This year there was a record 22 per cent increase in British visitors, bringing the total to more than 110,000.
