If you get an invitation for coffee, be ready to find out why Dalmatians are always happy and relaxed and embrace the lifestyle. Be warned, coffee sometimes means beer as well!
If you are planning your vacation in Šibenik, there are a lot of cafes in the city center but the best choice is by the sea! The same goes for Zadar, villas in Trogir, Dubrovnik, Split and other towns along the coast. Don't forget the charms of Central Dalmatia either!
