Croatia is considered a very safe destination for tourists, including those from Romania. It ranks as the safest European country for walking alone at night and is significantly safer than Romania, which ranks 19th in that category. According to the Global Peace Index, Croatia is ranked 15th out of 160 countries, again indicating a higher level of safety compared to Romania, which ranks 36th. In terms of crime statistics, Croatia has a lower murder rate of 0.8 per 100,000 people compared to Romania's 1.3. Female murder rates are also lower in Croatia (0.7) than in Romania (0.8). While both countries have similar scores for mafia presence (4.0), Croatia has higher indices for organized crime in certain areas, such as crime networks (6.5) and state crime (6.5), compared to Romania.

Overall, tourists from Romania can feel safe visiting Croatia, as the country has consistently better safety rankings and lower crime rates.
