Croatia does offer lots of interesting activities.
I would say the most common free activity in the country is the open parks. Croatia has lots of open green spaces and parks that are free and open 24h. Besides that, the country also has lots of free playgrounds for kids. In almost every neighborhood you can find at least one playground.
