Party on the beach, retreat to a heritage abode, slip in for a swim to revive your soul, and eat at a local restaurant! These are the pillars to balance out nightlife and lifestyle. I'll show you where to stay for a great party atmosphere, a relaxing environment, and clean and comfortable accommodations.
Let's uncover the top locations for nightlife in Croatia: Tisno and Zrće Beach. In Tisno you will find festivals such as Dimensions and Love International, whereas on Zrće, the world renowned Sonus Festival takes place. Both are in the South of the country in the region known as Dalmatia, however Zrće is located on the island of Pag. The distance between them is approximately 1.5 hours.

T I S N O
South of Croatia known as Dalmatia
Festivals: Dimensions, Love International, Defected, Outlook, Dekmantel Selectors
Important to know: There are apartments directly on the site of the festival, but they are quite 'dormitory style' with old wood furniture, florescent lighting, and don't offer a vibe at all. If you want to get some rest, you will still hear the music from the festival, will be limited to eating the food vendors on site which can get boring after 5 days, and you should be aware of theft. So with these in mind, I've created an accomodation list that has clean, comfortable, and peaceful experiences :)

Zrće (pronounced Zer - chay) is located on the island of Pag nearest to the cities Zadar and Split. Pag looks a bit like planet Mars with its pebble landscape. Fun fact: some speculate that if the moon landing was filmed, it was done here. Zrće Beach attracts young drunken tourists to its party beaches, so beware.
