If you are considering Croatia as your next destination for work and life, this is the guide for you. The Croatian coast offers an extraordinary combination of beautiful beaches, rich culture and modern conveniences, perfect for your nomadic lifestyle. Here are some tips to help you make the most of your time on the Croatian coast.
Choose the right accommodation
Your home is your office, so it's important that you feel comfortable. On our website, you can find a variety of apartments and villas that meet all your needs. Choose accommodation that offers a stable Wi-Fi connection, work space and comfort. Some of our properties also offer additional amenities such as private pools and terraces with sea views.
Get to know the local culture and community
The Croatian coast is rich in history and culture. Explore local customs, enjoy Dalmatian cuisine, visit historic cities such as Split, Dubrovnik and Zadar. Getting to know the local community can enrich your experience and help you adapt more quickly.
Find coworking spaces
Going to a coworking space can be an ideal solution for changing the working atmosphere and introducing new dynamics into your working day. Croatia is home to many top coworking spaces and technology parks designed to meet the needs of digital nomads. These spaces not only provide great infrastructure, including high-speed internet and comfortable workstations, but are also great places to network and connect with other professionals. They often organize different events, workshops and get-togethers, which gives you the opportunity to get to know the local business community and make new business contacts.
Balance between work and rest
Take advantage of coastal living. After a day of work, relax on the beach, enjoy the sunset or explore the gems that the coast hides. Weekends are perfect for short trips to nearby islands or for activities such as sailing, hiking and cycling, which you can read more about in a previous blog.
Plan your finances and health insurance
The key to a carefree stay is to have a clear financial plan in order to ensure a smooth experience during your stay in any country, including Croatia. In addition to regular monitoring of costs and budgeting, it is important to consider the cost of living in different parts of Croatia, which can vary significantly. Health insurance is another vital aspect to consider, ensuring that you are protected in case of illness or accident. Exploring long-term residency options, including a Croatian visa, can open the door to an extended stay and exploring the country on a larger scale. Finally, it's worth exploring local banks and digital banking options to manage your finances with ease and without unnecessary international transaction fees.
