The highlights of the Split region
Start your adventure in the historic old town of Split, which was built around the impressive Diocletian's Palace. Stroll through the narrow streets, enjoy the “Laganini” coffee culture on the Riva waterfront promenade and immerse yourself in the Mediterranean lifestyle.
Island hopping to Brač, Hvar & Vis
The islands around Split are also among the most beautiful in the Mediterranean:
- Brač is home to the famous Zlatni Rat beach, perfect for windsurfers and sun worshippers.
- Hvar, also known as the island of lavender fields, enchants with its elegant harbor towns and lively beach clubs.
- Vis is a special insider tip. With its pristine bays, crystal-clear waters and the mystical Blue Cave on the island of Biševo, it is definitely worth a visit.
Historic coastal towns in the surrounding area
In addition to the beautiful islands, there are numerous towns along the coast with impressive history and charm:
- The “museum city” of Dalmatia, Trogir, with its narrow streets, Venetian architecture and the famous Cathedral of St. Lawrence, can be explored on a day trip.
- A former pirate town at the mouth of the Cetina, Omiš is ideal for rafting, ziplining and climbing and is less than an hour's drive from Split.
- Another highlight is Šibenik. The town is known for the UNESCO-protected Cathedral of St. James and is considered the gateway to the Krka National Park with its spectacular waterfalls.
Water sports & adventure
Whether snorkeling in hidden bays, jet-skiing along the coast or diving to old shipwrecks - the Split region is a paradise for water sports enthusiasts. If you prefer to stay on land, you can get an adrenaline rush ziplining across the Cetina Gorge or mountain biking on Brač.
Culinary delights & moments of pleasure
After an eventful day on the water, first-class restaurants and traditional konobas await you. The offer ranges from freshly caught fish to Dalmatian pršut and excellent local wines - tip: best enjoyed at sunset with a view of the sea.
