For me Split is a safe city, but when the tourist season starts it’s getting a bit less safe. But I still feel okay to go home alone even if it’s late at night. So for me it’s really safe in the winter but a bit less when tourist season starts.

I spent seven days in Split, and as a young woman, I felt completely safe. The streets are lively, especially at night, with lots of people around. Because of that, I never felt unsafe or alone. It’s definitely a great destination for solo female travelers.

I lived in Split for only three weeks now but I think its overall quite safe (i would rate 7 out of 10). I usually go out with other people and I very rarely got catcalled and such, even the few times when I went back home alone in the night after clubbing. Its a small town and overall quite safe, i think sometimes only male turists can be a little annoying since they often get drunk in the evening. During the day is definitely safe (at least the city center, where i live). In any case I never reccomend going back home alone in the night
Posted: April 22, 2025It is generally safe. But there are always exeptions. Best advice would be travel in pair or a group, but you will mostly be safe if you follow all the general safety tips. As a girl Irving here all my life, there are always some creeps on the street, just try to ignore them and don't try to talk to them or anything similar.
Posted: January 1, 2025Split is small and safe - walking alone at night is the norm for most local women here. We dont have a problem with homeless people and you wont see drug use on the streets. Catcalling isn’t part of the culture (can unfortunately still in rare instances happen, I noticed particularly to Asian women), muggings and assault never happen especially not by locals to tourists. Just watch out for pickpockets in the old town and beaches. When going out in clubs keep in mind some tourists from other European countries use this as a party town and travel in big groups to get drunk for cheap

Split is the second-largest city in Croatia, and it is pretty safe. There are many attractions to visit during the day and night. Although the city is crowded in the summer, I never experienced or heard that someone was in a dangerous situation.

I went to Split in July 2025, and I loved it! Overall, I feel like it’s a safe city, perfect for families or group of friends they are looking for a relaxing vacation. I truly recommend to book a boat trip around the coast, and explore new bitches every day. The food is amazing, inexpensive and perfect for a low budget. Basically every day in the smaller towns around Split offer typical vendor events when you where you can find cute little souvenirs for really cheap. The house where we were staying in was basically new, really near the beach and the downtown. I can’t wait to go back there!
Posted: May 19, 2025Split is safe but in crouds be alert of scammers and pisckpockets. Accommodation is not the cheapest and also food. There were a lot of altivities and public transport was eazy and covered the whole area.
