Split by car: the essentials
Split is the main city of Dalmatia and the usual base for the central Croatian coast. The old town inside Diocletian's Palace is pedestrian-only, so the car is for everything around it: Trogir, the Krka waterfalls, the Makarska Riviera and the road south to Dubrovnik.
Picking up the car
Split Airport (SPU) is in Kaštela, about 25 km west of the city centre: allow 30–40 minutes, more in summer traffic. Trogir is only around 6 km from the terminal, so it is easy to visit on the day you arrive or leave. If you stay in the old town first, collecting the car in the city when you set off saves several days of parking.
Day trips
Trogir, a UNESCO-listed island town, is about half an hour west of Split. Krka National Park is roughly an hour away on the A1 motorway, with the main entrances near Skradin and Lozovac. Omiš and the Cetina canyon are about 25 km to the south-east, and Makarska a little over an hour along the coast. Dubrovnik is around 230 km south, about three hours; the Pelješac Bridge lets you drive there without leaving Croatia.
Roads, parking and ferries
The A1 is a toll motorway, while the coastal road D8 is free, scenic and slow in high season. You cannot drive into Diocletian's Palace: use the paid car parks around the old town and by the harbour. Car ferries to Brač (Supetar) and Hvar (Stari Grad) leave from the port next to the centre. Check your rental terms before taking the car on a ferry, and in summer arrive early, as queues are long.
