Mljet National Park received the prestigious INHERITURA certificate

MLJET – The Minister of Tourism and Sports, Nikolina Brnjac, presented the INHERITURA certificate to the director of the Mljet National Park, Ivan Sršen, and held a working meeting with him.

INHERITURA certificates are awarded to destinations that are exemplary examples of sustainability in the Mediterranean. Four Croatian destinations met the criteria for awarding this label, and recently the Mljet National Park joined as the fifth.

Certificates are awarded to Mediterranean areas for sustainability and environmental protection, preserving and valorising natural heritage in coastal and marine areas while respecting the local environment and nature. Each destination had to meet 16 strict environmental protection and sustainability criteria.

– Preservation of natural heritage and biodiversity, especially in marine areas and on islands, are goals to which we must all contribute together, and the development of sustainable tourism is the best basis for maintaining the tourist competitiveness of the Mediterranean – said Minister Nikolina Brnjac, congratulating on the obtained INHERITURA certificate.

This will certainly be another boost to the tourism of Mljet island.
