Analyze how Visit Portugal, Visit Greece, and Visit Croatia position themselves to North American travelers online. What messages, visuals, and channels do they prioritize?

Competitor analysis: Portugal leads with "affordable luxury" + food culture narrative, heavy Instagram focus. Greece emphasizes ancient history + island escapism, strong YouTube investment. Croatia targets adventure + hidden gems with TikTok-native content. Gap: none are owning the "sustainable travel" positioning strongly — opportunity for a differentiated campaign angle.
