Croatia is a small country, so air travel is just as short as train travel most of the time. Driving is also a lot easier to move around the country on a smaller budget. And island-hopping becomes easier with only a car to carry on the ferry. You will discover that travel by sea to the islands is a very entertaining way to move around and regular Catamarans, boats, yachts, ferries etc ply between main port cities and islands. You can also use Hydroplanes between Pula, Split, Lastovo and Mali Losinj on the Dalmatian Coast. Within cities and islands, walking is the best way to get around as most of them are small.
