Ancient city on the Dalmatian coast

Looking for a weekend holiday with culture and beautiful beaches? Book a flight to Split and discover an ancient city on the Dalmatian coast. Feel the wind in your hair as you stroll along Bačvice beach and admire the Roman art on display in the Archaeological Museum. Or climb to the top of tree-lined Marjan hill: your reward is a breathtaking view of the deep blue water of the Adriatic Sea.

From Roman palaces to a vibrant city

The lively city centre of Split, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, is built on the site of the 4th century palace of Roman emperor Diocletian. The ancient walls, alleys and square form the heart of the city, which is easily explored on foot. Stroll via the Bronze Gate to the historic Peristyle square and admire the impressive Egyptian Sphinx. Then descend into the catacombs and browse the souvenir stalls. At night, locals and visitors flock to the many terraces that line the boulevard to watch the sun sink into the Adriatic Sea. Split is the ideal destination for weekend holidays, but also as the starting point for a longer vacation in Croatia. Treat yourself: book a flight to Split now!
