A city where ancient history meets modern Mediterranean life, Split is a vibrant coastal destination and the largest city in Dalmatia. With its blend of Roman architecture, bustling waterfront, and lively culture, Split is a must-visit for anyone exploring Croatia’s Adriatic coast.
At the heart of Split lies Diocletian’s Palace, a UNESCO World Heritage site and one of the world’s most impressive Roman monuments. Built in the 4th century as a retirement palace for Emperor Diocletian, the palace is now a living part of the city, filled with cafés, shops, and ancient ruins.
The Riva is Split’s bustling waterfront promenade, lined with palm trees, bars, and restaurants. It’s the perfect spot to enjoy a coffee, watch the boats in the harbor, and soak in the lively atmosphere.
For panoramic views of Split and the surrounding islands, head to Marjan Hill, a lush green park ideal for walking, jogging, or simply relaxing. It’s a peaceful escape from the city with trails that lead to scenic viewpoints and quiet beaches.
Split’s most popular beach, Bačvice, is known for its sandy shores and shallow waters. It’s a favorite spot for swimming, sunbathing, and playing picigin, a traditional Dalmatian ball game played in the sea.
Experience the authentic flavours of Split at the Pazar (Green Market) and the Peskarija (Fish Market). Savor local specialties like pašticada (braised beef) and soparnik (Swiss chard pie), paired with Dalmatian wines and olive oil.
Diocletian’s Palace is not just a historic site—it’s a part of everyday life in Split, with over 3,000 residents living within its ancient walls.
Several scenes from Game of Thrones were filmed in Split, including the basements of Diocletian’s Palace, which served as Daenerys’s throne room.
Often called the “lungs of Split,” Marjan Hill has been a protected green space since the Middle Ages and offers some of the best views in Dalmatia.
Picigin, a ball game unique to Split, originated at Bačvice Beach and has become an essential part of local culture.
Split is host to many festivals and events. The Split Summer Festival features theatre and music performances, exhibitions and street theatre across the city. From film festivals to live concerts with international artists and DJs.
The best time to visit Split is from May to September, when the weather is warm and sunny. July and August are the busiest months, ideal for beach lovers and festival-goers. For fewer crowds and milder weather, consider visiting in May, June, or September.
Split is easily accessible by plane, ferry, bus, and train. Split Airport (SPU) connects to major European cities. While ferries link the city to nearby islands like Brač, and Šolta, you can avoid the crowds and visit the secluded bays of the islands with our signature tours.
Top attractions include Diocletian’s Palace, Marjan Hill, and the Riva Promenade. Don’t miss Bačvice Beach, the Cathedral of Saint Domnius, and the vibrant Green Market for an authentic local experience.
