In the traditional annual grading of Croatian camps (mostly the ones on the coast) organised by the Croatian Automobile Association (HAK), the Camping association of Croatia and the Association of Croatian campers, the highest grades were awarded to camp Zaton - in the category of large camps with the capacity to accommodate 1500 persons, then the naturist camp Politin on Krk - in the category of medium sized camps (300 – 1500 persons) and camp Jasenovo in Žaborići near Šibenik -proclaimed the best small camp, with the capacity to hold 300 persons.
It was concluded by the judges that camp Zaton rightly holds the title of a family haven. It was awarded the highest grade because of its additional content: a beach adapted to children and non swimmers, attractive heated pools and especially well organized sports and entertainment activities. Second place among large camps was taken by the naturist camp Valalta in Rovinj and third by Bi-Village in Fažana.
Camp Politin, the winner among medium sized camps, is located on a wooded peninsula not far from the centre of the town of Krk. “Succumb to the wonders of nature by walking or cycling along the paths of the peninsula and discover many picturesque bays and small beaches in the vicinity of the camp. Enjoy the isolation on the sea front surrounded by the beautiful smell of Mediterranean vegetation and the crystal blue sea, with a beautiful view of the town of Krk and the islands Plavnik and Cres “, are the words used by the judges to explain their decision. Following in the second and third place are camps Oaza Mira in Drage near Pakoštane and camp Vira on Hvar.
Jasenovo, the winner among small camps, is located in a bay bearing the same name, surrounded by pine woods, right on the sea front, where, from a natural, pebbled beach a wonderful view stretches onto the nearby islands of the Šibenik archipelago.
Along with the outstanding service, each guest of the camp has a chance to enjoy the nature in peace and quiet, concluded the judges, who placed two camps from Pelješac behind Jasenovo – the camp Palme in the village Kućište and the camp Adriatic in Orebić. The camps Park, Umag and Bunculuka were awarded special prizes for keeping a high level of service.
