May Day in Croatia: your ideal mobile home for a short holiday on the Adriatic Sea

Spring has arrived with summery temperatures and nature is showing its best side. As the temperatures rise, so does the desire to go to the seaside and enjoy a short holiday. Bridge days are ideal for such an adventure. Labour Day, also known as May Day, is a Wednesday this year. This makes it ideal for building a bridge on both sides and spending 5 days directly on the Adriatic with just 2 days’ holiday.

May Day is all about nature and numerous outdoor events.

We found out what events are planned in the most popular places on the Adriatic around 1 May. Read on to find out why it’s well worth planning a short trip to one of the campsites with mobile homes on the Croatian coast.
