Croatia might sound pretty random, but it’s actually been a common destination for Europeans (looking to escape us rowdy vacationing Americans) for years. And for good reason: Croatia has the same Mediterranean climate as Greece and Italy but with a more relaxed, and less crowded, vibe. Plus there is some amazingly gorgeous coastline and historic sites in cities like Dubrovnik. That’s also where you can hit up the nightlife after a day of lounging on the beach. Check out the Croatia National Tourist Board for more info.

What to pack: You’ll need clothes that can seamlessly take you from the beach to a night out, like this Sorbet Top, $34, Peeking Daisy Skirt, $48, and Dania Sandal, $39.95. You can easily wear this outfit to the beach with a bathing suit underneath and then swap the flip-flops for heels or platform sandals at night.
