The guide was updated: 2024-09-16

In Croatia pharmacists sell over-the-counter medicines for minor illnesses, but for more serious problems you will need a prescription that can be issued by a private doctor or filled by "Ljekarna", the equivalent of a pharmacy and easily recognisable by the lit green "+" sign. In most cases pharmacists do accept the prescription even if it is issued abroad. Some pharmacies in Vodice are to be found in: Ul. Bribirskih knezova 18, Vodice +385 22 444 569 ULICA ROCA PAVE 6, Vodice +385 22 443 168

Passport/Visa

Passport/Visa

Croatia can be visited visa-free for up to 90 days by citizens of most European countries, Australia, New Zealand, Japan, South Korea, Taiwan, Malaysia, Israel, UAE and most countries in America. If you are unsure whether or not you need to apply for a visa, we recommend contacting the embassy or consulate in your country. Citizens of EU countries can travel without a passport, but must have a valid ID with them during their stay. Other travellers need a passport that is valid for at least 3 months after the end of their intended trip in order to enter Croatia. Note that Croatia is not yet part of the Schengen zone, but allows visitors holding Schengen visas to enter the country without additional visa requirements.

Best Time to Visit

Best Time to Visit

If you're planning to visit Vodice to take full advantage of swimming in the pristine waters of the Adriatic Sea, the very warmest months are June, July and August, but take into account that these are also the busiest months of the year. The perfect months to avoid the tourist masses are probably the shoulder months (May and September) when the temperatures are warm enough for sunbathing and swimming and the city isn't that crowded.
