Magical national parks, heaps of history, incredible cuisine and vibrant seafront resorts make Split and its surroundings the treasure of the Dalmatian Coast. Its terracotta-topped namesake city is a belter, where you can mix serious history hunting with bar hopping right in the heart of Croatia. Further down the coast, sleepy towns wow with their pebbly shores and crystal-clear waters. Did we mention the incredible islands? Hvar's a glitzy spot, with marble streets, chic bars and trendy beach clubs. Meanwhile, picturesque Brač is a cyclist’s fave that also touts one of the country's best beaches, epic Zlatni Rat.
