Quotation from Lonely Planet:
http://www.lonelyplanet.com/travel-tips-and-articles/75884
Called the 'new Greece', the 'new Riviera' and the 'new Tuscany', Croatia has clearly become the latest gotta-go destination for the in-crowd. But for all the hype, Croatia’s pleasures are more timeless than trendsetting: as ever, the sun shines brilliantly on the crystalline Adriatic, which gently laps a 1778km coast and no fewer than 1185 islands. That’s a lot of coastline to explore, and there’s no better way to do this than to sail it. The most popular place to dock is the hoity-toity island of Hvar, flush with well-heeled yachties, but you should also set sail for hidden coves, traditional fishing villages and more remote island groups like Kornati or Elafiti.
Don’t be in too much of a hurry to set sail. Gateway cities such as Split and Dubrovnik have plenty of history and appeal for landlubbers too.
