About Split
Split is Croatia’s second-largest city, situated along the Dalmatian Coast. Known for its rich history, beaches, and growing tourism industry, Split is a must-visit destination.
The city’s centerpiece is the UNESCO World Heritage-listed Diocletian’s Palace, built in the 4th century by the Roman Emperor Diocletian as his retirement residence. Today, the palace isn’t just a historical relic—it’s a living part of the city, filled with homes, shops, restaurants, and bars within its ancient walls. As you wander through the narrow streets, you’ll encounter a mix of Roman, medieval, and Renaissance architecture.
Split offers a variety of beaches, each with its own character. Bacvice Beach is the city’s most famous, known for its sandy shore and the traditional Croatian game of picigin played in its shallow waters. For a more relaxed vibe, Kasjuni Beach has a small gay-friendly nudist section, crystal-clear water, and pine-shaded surroundings.
