Hi Michael, great question, we recently posted a full comparison on the blog about this and maybe we should make a video too. It's fairly comparable but there are definitely some differences. People: In our experience Greek people are perhaps more outwardly friendly and outgoing. Croatians are just as nice and hospitable but maybe a little more reserved. Scenery , Greece has a little bit more variety from island to island but they are pretty similar in our experience. Food: For us Greek food is the best, very affordable, very authentic and a wide variety of dishes found in local tavernas throughout the islands. Croatia has great food but it's harder to find really great restaurants and you normally pay a premium, also there is not as much variety. We eat out less in Croatia. Costs, Croatia just seems to get more and more expensive especially all things boating, marinas, boatyards, national park passes, marine supplies, tourist taxes for sailors, all this stuff is more expensive in Croatia. They are both pretty similar in terms of services for sailors with both having really well developed nautical industries. Those are the main things for us in terms of sailing here.
Thanks for the feedback. I’m debating whether to try a holiday in Croatia or stick to Greece,decisions, decisions. Stay safe guys looking forward to more content ❤
