13 Amazing Things To See And Do On Croatia’s Dalmatian Coast
Breathtaking views and outstanding wine: What more could you ask for?
1. Get lost in the small harbor town of Trogir.
Trogir — which comes from the Greek “trogos,” meaning male goat — is located 17 miles west of Split, and has a strange and rich history. Influenced by Hellenistic, Roman, and Venetian rule over the past 2,000 years, the town’s winding medieval alleys, bright blue vistas, and open-air cafés make it a quintessential spot for a day trip. (The Dr. Who-obsessed will appreciate that an episode of the series was filmed here.)
2. Feast on sausages and calamari in Podstrana.
This Split suburb is best known for its pristine, pebbled beaches and world-renowned resort, yet the roadside-seaside sandwich stand, Bili Pivac, is just as good of a reason to visit Podstrana. The stand serves grilled cevapi — essentially Croatian sausage —stuffed inside chewy, charred bread with as many raw vegetables as you can pronounce in Croatian or mime. (But note before you go: English is not spoken.)
3. Skip the tan lines and bathe topless in Bol.
Jutting from the island of Brač like an appendage, Bol offers prime topless sunbathing territory and incomprehensibly blue views of the Adriatic. Hop on a ferry from Split — it’s only 40 minutes off the coast. Take in the pristine beaches before deciding where to set up camp, and get tanning.
