Discover

Dalmatian Coast

Stretching across the edge of Croatia’s Adriatic coastline, the Dalmatian Coast reveals some of Europe’s most glorious beaches. Start your adventure in Split, a UNESCO-listed city of sights and museums before treating yourself to a day trip or two to nearby seaside towns and quaint islands.

Head south of Split to find the Makarska Riviera, where stunning pine-edged beaches will take your breath away, before discovering more about Croatian culture by heading on to the towns of Brelia, Tucepi and Zivogosce with their coves, bays and clear waters.
