Split

Set against sumptuous scenery and boasting a fascinating history that has helped earn its sites UNESCO World Heritage status, the Croatian city of Split basks in irresistible Mediterranean charm.

At its heart is the grand Diocletian’s Palace, where restaurants and bars spill out into the old town and tempt you into sampling some of Croatia’s famed red wine. Head to Riva to bask in your surroundings, stroll the Bacvice beach and enjoy spectacular views from Marjan Hill, then be sure to explore the hidden coves of the Dalmatian Coast and take a daytrip to the enchanting Hvar and Korcula, two islands that comprise the Split archipelago.
