Spain's Conde Nast Traveller awards Croatian islands as most beautiful

The Spanish edition of Conde Nast Traveller magazine gave Croatian Adriatic islands an award for most beautiful islands in the world in Madrid on Monday, the Croatian Foreign Ministry said on Tuesday.

The readers of the prestigious magazine voted in about 15 categories, including best city hotel, non-city hotel, best resort, best spa, best destination, most beautiful city, most beautiful island, and best air carrier.

The islands of the Croatian Adriatic were voted the most beautiful in the world, despite strong competition from the Greek islands, Corsica, Puerto Rico and Mauritius.

The award ceremony was attended by the Croatian Ambassador to Spain Neven Pelicarić and the director of the Madrid branch of the Croatian Tourist Board Sanja Jelić.

Pelicarić said he was certain the award would have a strong and positive impact on the Spanish tourist market.
