Just like the colours on the bridge, things change very quickly in van travel land. Today we left Trogir behind, with family now back home, we continued the coastal route down through Croatia, where each section resembles the last, just as it had before in the other coastal regions, each predominantly unpopulated where every so often a small hamlet, village or town separates the mountains from the sea. #croatia #croatia_instagram #vanlifeeurope #vanlifediaries #vanlife4x4 #sprintervanlife #vanlife #campervantravels #adventurevanlife #motorhomeadventures #goexplore Split, Croatia’s 2nd largest city and home of the incredible walled centre that’s the Diocletian Palace, the finest example of Roman ruins of its kind remaining and an incredible labyrinth of tiny streets behind a bustling waterfront and intoxicating atmosphere. Simply beautiful! Krka National Park near Sibenik and the incredibly beautiful Skradinski Buk, where boardwalks lead to spectacular pools where waterfalls flow amongst beautiful scenery. #krkanationalpark #skradinskibuk #croatiafulloflife #vantravel #vanlife4x4 #sprintervanlife #campervanadventures #vanlifediaries #vanlifeeurope #goexplore #beautifuldestinations #waterfallsofinstagram #vanlifejournal Kaštela ~ 20km of coast where 17 castles, fortified villages and mansions were built over 500 years ago, now forming 7 pretty waterside villages between Trogir and Split #kaštela #croatiatravel #trogircroatia #splitcroatia #vanlifediaries #vanlife4x4 #sprintervanlife #campervanadventures #vantravel #vanlifeeurope #motorhometravel #goexplore #seetheworld #travelblogger The welcome warm air finally arrives just in time to be joined by special family for a week of relaxation in this beautiful part of Croatia. #trogircroatia #campervanadventures #vanlife4x4 #vanlifediaries #vanlifeexplorers #croatiatravel #vantravel #goexplore #motorhomelife #sprintercampervan #sprintervandiaries #sprintervanlife
