Split is the vibrant coastal city of Dalmatia and one of the most popular destinations on the Adriatic Sea. The heart of the city is formed by the impressive UNESCO World Heritage Site of Diocletian's Palace, a remnant from Roman times that majestically extends into the lively old town. With its authentic streets, historic architecture and vibrant atmosphere, the old town offers a fascinating step back in time. In addition to its rich cultural heritage, Split benefits from its beautiful seaside location with attractive beaches and crystal-clear water that invites swimming and water sports. The city serves as the perfect base for island hopping to the nearby islands of the Dalmatian archipelago, including Hvar, Brač and Vis. Split combines the best of both worlds: culture enthusiasts will find plenty of inspiration in the historic heritage, while beach lovers can enjoy sea, sun and relaxation. The combination of hospitable locals, excellent restaurants, cozy cafés and a dynamic nightlife makes Split an ideal destination for both active travelers and those looking to escape into a holiday atmosphere.
