Hi Julian,
Didn't see any other lakes but looking at the map there seem to be quite a few dotted around. The biggest one is apparently Lake Vrana on the Dalmatian coast which is also a nature reserve.
There were quite alot of castles/ruins in various stages of disrepair. We didn't really visit many as they tend to be in the cities - apparently the remains in Pula are pretty impressive. As well as Roman stuff there is also quite alot from the Ottoman era as the Balkans were pretty much the 'front line' between east and west for centuries.
If you're happy to just explore for yourselves there were alot of ruins etc. to wander around in - just don't expect any guides/information to be at hand! Very interesting though.
