Beaches to visit while in Split: local’s top list!

If the first images to spark your interest in Croatia were of its incredible beaches, and if what eventually made you book your trip were your constant dreams of diving into a crystal-clear sea, you are in for a pleasurable and informative read. It is true, here in the region of Dalmatia, you will find some of the most beautiful beaches in Europe, if not in the whole world


The decision on which ones to head over to during your stay can be overwhelming. Whether you have plans of visiting the most famous nearby island beaches, or you are more likely to take it easy and explore everything the city of Split can offer in terms of beach life – we’ve got you covered! Let us first discover some of the options closest to Marvie Hotel & Health.

Exploring the bays and beaches of Split

Summertime days in the city of Split are ideal for discovering its lovely and varied beaches. This popular coastal town allows you to stroll or ride a bike along the many kilometers of its waterfront while getting to know its attractive blue flag beaches. Sandy, pebble and rocky beach options alike, surround the city and offer hours of sunbathing and snorkeling in crystal clear waters!

Bačvice beach

Many are the reasons why Bačvice beach is considered to be Split’s most famous beach. Its location is an easy walk from the old town and Diocletian’s palace (as well as from our hotel!). Just a few minutes away from the city’s ferry port, this sandy beach incredibly boasts a blue-flag status for water-quality and safety. The sand makes it ideal for children’s play while the many bars and restaurants offer refreshments for families during the day, and well into the night for young vacationers. Bačvice beach is often portrayed as one of the landmarks of Split, where even during colder months, locals can be seen in the shallow water, playing Picigin – a traditional ball game, on sunny winter days.

Žnjan beach

Just a few minutes away from Marvie Hotel & Health, another locals’ favorite beach is bound to provide pleasurable days in the sun for you and your partner, your big family or group of friends. This vast pebble beach is located in a popular seaside residential area of Split, and besides the transparent water you will be swimming in, it also offers a bicycle and jogging path, many caffe bars and activities aimed at children.

Ježinac beach

Across town and on the southern side of the Park-forest Marjan, the pebble and rocky beach Ježinac, positioned in a quiet residential area, is ideal for nature lovers who might combine a day at this beach with an easy hike over the Marjan Hill, as well as for art and culture aficionados who can easily reach Ježinac beach by walking downhill after a visit to the stunning Ivan Meštrović Gallery

It is safe to say that we are spoiled for choice when it comes to selecting a beautiful beach to spend a summer day in Split. Besides the three described above, the whole city is surrounded by a variety of beaches to choose from, and other popular destinations include Firule, Ovčice and Trstenik beach, all close to our hotel, as well as Kašjuni and Bene beach below Marjan Hill.

If, on the other hand, you are impatient to experience for yourself the striking beauty of postcard-featured beaches such as the Golden Horn on Brač, don’t hesitate to head out to the islands and start your adventure!

Beach day trips

The city of Split is in fact an ideal hub for the exploration of Dalmatian islands. The ferry port is a short walk from the city center and offers many connections which allow visitors to embark on day trips to the popular islands of Brač and Hvar. Speedboat island hopping is also an option, and will allow you to reach many island destinations in just one day and still make time for a rooftop cocktail at sunset when you return to Marvie Hotel & Health.

A wonder of nature - Zlatni Rat (Golden Horn)

This celebrated beach has often been named one of the top beaches in the world by various travel magazines and blogs. A surfer’s paradise, this stunning pebble beach is located on the southern side of Brač, the biggest island in Central Dalmatia and just under Vidova Gora (780m) – the highest point on the Croatian islands, just 4km away from the town of Bol.

The strong sea currents are famously the cause behind frequent changes in shape of the Golden Horn’s pointed top, and visitors usually choose to settle on one of the two sides of the beach, where one is always windier than the other. Many activities are provided at the beach, for both children and adults. Enjoy this unique wonder of nature with jet ski and banana boat-rides or popular parachute rides over the beach, as well as the huge water park for children. 

Other breathtaking beaches can also be found on the island of Hvar, one of the country’s most popular destinations. The island is known for its spectacular bays such as Dubovica, as well as the small archipelago of Pakleni islands where even Hollywood celebrities love to spend their Mediterranean holidays.

Although harder to reach, Stiniva cove on the island of Vis is characterized by its high cliffs and pristine turquoise sea, and is also frequently voted as one of Europe’s most beautiful beaches.

Brela

If you are interested in exploring the Dalmatian coast to the south of Split, the beaches in Brela are a breathtaking sight. Easily accessible by car, the 6 kilometer stretch of beaches have often been defined Croatia’s best beaches. Enjoy the shade of pine trees, dive into the crystalline sea and swim towards Brela Stone, an iconic landmark where you are bound to snap many memorable pictures!

It is clear to see that stunning beaches are to be found in Split as well as its surroundings. We can also help you reach many of them. Make the most out of your holiday and stay at Marvie Hotel & Health.
