You'll find plenty of vendors selling handmade goods and local delicacies. And in the warmer months, you can experience live music and cultural preferences within the main square.

Unwind on the Beach

Vacations are about relaxing in beautiful surroundings and forgetting about the struggles of everyday life. Luckily, Split's stretching coastline has countless beaches, from hidden coves to sprawling golden lanes.

Žnjan Beach is the biggest beach in town, with a rocky surface and nearby amenities, including toilets, cafes, and showers. Beach Trstenik is ideal if you're searching for a quieter space with the locals. Or you can wander Marjan Park until an isolated cove appears to have your own slice of heaven.

When you travel in the spring, you still get the Mediterranean sunshine but avoid the crowds of tourists. The Old Town of Split is over 17 centuries old, so the narrow streets fill up quickly with only a few groups.

Fall is the best time to get the most bang for your buck. As airlines and hotels approach the low season, many offer significant discounts to fill spaces. The more money you save, the more you can put towards cultural tours and the delicious food scene!
