"We are pleased that financial indicators confirm our progress as a year-round destination. After another record-breaking pre-season in terms of tourism results, we now have record revenues from foreign tourists. This demonstrates that the reform we are implementing is already showing concrete effects, and as we enter a new era of tourism development management, we expect even stronger growth for Croatian tourism," said Minister of Tourism and Sports, Tonči Glavina.
