I found Split such a disappointment compared to the other places I visited in Croatia. It's still a nice place but the other places all blew my mind with how pretty they were whereas Split was well below expectations.

I was in split for 3 days and it was amazing, the views, architecture and activities were pure bliss. It was my first solo trip and its given me more confidence in interacting with stranger's. The food was lovely too :) only slight negative is that some of the locals are a bit hostile but if you can ignore that it's great!

My first visit to Split was to Kasjuni Beach, which I highly recommend because the water is simply stunning. It's a bit far from the city center and I didn't see many buses, so it's best to opt for a car or a motorcycle. I had a car with me, which made it much easier to get around between the cities. In the evening, I took a stroll in Split, my favorite city in Croatia. Very clean, lively too. There are quite a few nice restaurants and bars, and there were people out at night.

I loved Split. I spent a week there last summer and it was amazing. I’d highly recommend staying in Riva Harbor. I stayed in Old Town and walked to Riva nearly every day. It’s on the water and there are a ton of restaurants, bars, etc in that area.

I lived in Split for 3 years, I absolutely adore it! There are tons of great hikes in/near Split (Kozjak, Mosor, Biokovo); Marjan Park is amazing; definitely take day trips to Trogir, Omiš, Makarska, the islands. There is no shortage of excellent restaurants in Split! My favorite cafes are Kava2, D16, and Cafe Galerija (cafe attatched to Galerija Food). Luka Cakes and Ice Cream and Oš Kolač are excellent places for dessert! Bokeria, Zinfandel, Brasserie on 7, Perivoj, Dvor, Artičok, Šug are excellent fine dining restraunts. Konoba Marul, Villa Spiza, and Duje are excellent for very local dining experiences. Bokamora, To Je Taco, Stari Plac, Pandora Greenbox, are some of my other favorites. Zeru, Sanctuary Bar, Black Dog, and Tap B are great places to grab a drink.
