'Grab a bargain in Croatia', Brits urged

04 June 2008

British holidaymakers have been recommended to travel to Croatia this summer and grab a bargain while they can.

The country's currency is pegged to the euro but has not yet joined it, meaning tourists can still "let their hair down" while there, MSN Money reports.

It is advised Brits avoid the eurozone completely due to the poor value of the pound against the joint currency.

Sean Tipton, a spokesman for the Association of British Travel Agents, told the website holidaymakers should consider the exchange rate of a country before they travel abroad.

He added: "Unless they bought their euros when they booked their holidays they will find the pound buys ten to 15 per cent less this year than last."

Sibenik on the Dalmatian coast has recently been recommended as a hotspot for people who like to "go wild around Europe's nightclubs".

Two of its clubs are in the balkantravellers.com "most important clubs along Croatia's coast" list and is said to be a cult destination for party animals.
