Split was beautiful! For me and my partner, both pale nordics, the sun and heat was too much and we both got sick😆 but I loved the old buildings, narrow streets, fun shops, stray cats, beaches and sunsets. Public transport was easy to use. Only downsize was way too many tourists, and especially at night time drunk ones.
Posted: June 9, 2024Experienced: May, 2024Hey gals! I just wanted to jump on here to share a scary experience I had in Split as solo traveller. I ended up getting sick and needing to go to the hospital, I found that the hostel staff were super unhelpful and told me they didn’t know any English speaking doctors. At the hospital, I was yelled at by the male doctor and not given any explanation as to what was wrong with me. Due to this, I chose to go to a private clinic who were much kinder. If you find yourself in this health position, I would recommend going to a different city as a female POC solo traveller as I felt discriminated and unseen. I think the town is sick of tourists, which might be why they weren’t wanting to help, however I just wanted to put this out there to help others.
Posted: May 22, 2024Experienced: May, 2024Split was my first solo trip and could not recommend it enough. Felt safe there, the perfect mix of chilling and things to see and do and Croatia is a beautiful country.
Posted: February 7, 2024I felt super safe and loved it. The history and scenery was beautiful, lots of day trips you can do like to bosnia or hvar or any of the islands (and not that expensive!). i also did a day trip to omish which was stunning and went zip lining which was inexpensive and the guides were great for support and assistance as i was a bit nervous but is a must do if you go there! lots of ice cream options. i stayed in a hostel (en route) which seemed sketchy from the outside but very much was not and got to meet a lot of cool people as well as it was a 5 minute walking distance from the beach and board walk.
Posted: January 5, 2024I found Split to be such a disappointment compared to other places I visited in Croatia. It's still a nice place, but all the other places just blew me away with their beauty, while Split significantly fell short of 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!
Posted: September 18, 2023Experienced: August, 2023My first visit to Split was at 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 motorcycle. I had a car with me, which made it easy for me to get around between towns. In the evening, I went for a walk around Split, my favourite city in Croatia. Very clean, also full of life. There are quite a lot of cool restaurants and bars, and people were out at night.
Posted: September 18, 2023I adored Split. I spent a week there last summer and it was incredible. I highly recommend staying at Marina Riva. I stayed in the Old Town and almost every day I walked to Riva. It's located on the water and there are plenty of restaurants, bars etc.
Posted: August 9, 2023To do: - Climb the Bell Tower - One-day trip to Krka National Park (waterfalls) - Visit a local winery - One-day boat trip to the islands - Visit the Blue Cave on Bisevo - One-day trip to Hvar - Visit the small town of Omiš - Go zip lining - Walk to Diocletian's Palace Safety: I felt very safe. Recommendations: Split is an amazing city. Diocletian's Palace is a living piece of history and an absolutely perfect place to get lost.

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.

Split is a very safe city, women can go alone in the dark without worrying at all. There is no criminal here, no danger of being robbed, attacked or anything similar. You don't have to pay attention to your staff when you're outside and you don't have to worry about your safety.

I lived in Split for 3 years, I absolutely love it! There are plenty of great places to walk around Split (Kozjak, Mosor, Biokovo); Marjan Park is incredible; be sure to take day trips to Trogir, Omiš, Makarska, and the islands. Split is not short on excellent restaurants! My favorite cafes are Kava2, D16 and Cafe Galerija (cafe at 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 restaurants offering refined dishes. Konoba Marul, Villa Spiza, and Duje are excellent places for local culinary experiences. Bokamora, To Je Taco, Stari Plac, Pandora Greenbox are some of my other favorite places. Zeru, Sanctuary Bar, Black Dog, and Tap B are great places for a drink.
