Because of its ideal climate, with 2,800 hours of sunlight each year, local people have a few nicknames for Split: "The most beautiful city in the world" and "Mediterranean flower". Many famous Croatian sports people are born in Split, so locals often nicknamed their city as "The sportiest city in the world". The most popular sport institution is the football club Hajduk. The whole city is painted with the club's colors and logo. This is done by Torcida, the oldest supporters group in Europe, established in 1950.
Beside bell tower of St. Duje, the symbols of city are the Dalmatian dog and a donkey. Locals have a high place for the donkey because of its past indispensable place in field work and transport across Dalmatian mountains.
Winters in Split are generally mild, with temperatures above 0°C, but despite the popular saying that the city experiences snowfall once every 30 years, there is actually at least one snowy day nearly every winter, usually in January or early February. If you find yourself in Split on a day with significant snowfall, expect serious traffic disruption.

By plane
Split Airport [url=http://www.split-airport.hr/index.php?lang=en]]is, after Zagreb Airport, the most important in Croatia. Scheduled services fly to major European cities, with summer charter flights from more. The airport is about 25 km west from Split, near the city of [[Kaštela[/url]]. It has free WiFi internet. Airport buses run from the terminal to the city and stop at the eastern end of 'Riva'. A single ticket costs 30 kn. Local buses run from the road outside the terminal -- walk through the parking lot and go to the bus stop on the other side of the road.
Bus number 37 runs about every 30 min and costs 16 kn (tickets are bought from the bus driver). Bus 37 does not take you all the way to the historical centre and you need to switch to bus 9 or 10, or just walk about a kilometre along the major road that runs by the bus stop (stops for buses 9 and 10 are also by this road). In addition, a small fraction of the departures from Split main bus station to Trogir on work days use the road next to the airport. In the on-line timetables [url=http://www.ak-split.hr/EN/vozni.red/index.html]]search for ZRAČNA L.-AIRPORT (but take into account that the timetable is not necessarily 100% correct). Going to the airport, onboard the bus tell the conductor that you want a stop at the airport.
A shuttle bus run by Pleso Transport Company [url=http://www.plesoprijevoz.hr/about.htm[/url]]operates between the airport and the city centre. If you ask locals for directions they will automatically point you towards this bus, but beware if you are travelling with another airline then this bus schedule is a bit irrelevant. A single ticket costs 33 kn (about €4). As of August 2013, it appears as if the shuttle bus meets all scheduled arriving flights even those not from Croatia Airlines and goes up to every 10 minutes in peak season. When exiting the terminal go to your right and you should see the buses. The bus stops at the central bus station by the port at a dedicated stop with an "AIRPORT" sign. For an up-to-date schedule, ask at a Tourist Information Centre.
Taxis will also take you into town. A taxi to Split centre (ferry port or Diocletian's Palace) takes a bit over 30 min and costs about 270 kn on the meter, though most drivers will agree on 220 if asked in advance ,[url=http://splitairport-transfers.com/[/url]taxi prices[/url]. If your transfering to a ferry tell the driver the ferry departure time so he can rush if neccesary. Most of the taxis have a preorder option for a cheaper price.
For 0-24 coverage you have lots of options.
If leaving Split by plane, be careful to plan the journey to the airport in advance, as local buses don't run before 5 AM or after midnight.
Flights to and from [wiki=c87f42a2ab4a24074411dfd55ca71450]Belgrade[/wiki], [wiki=2ff6e535bd2f100979a171ad430e642b]Serbia[/wiki] were reintroduced in June 2012 after a 21-year hiatus. As of July there are four flights per week. As expected, there is massive demand for these planes, so book with Croatia Airlines [url=http://www.croatiaairlines.com/]]or Jat Airways [url=http://www.jat.com/active/en/home.html[/url]]well in advance in order to get a cheaper ticket. If you are seated next to the window, you can catch a magnificent glimpse of [[Sarajevo[/url]] from 21,000 feet.

By train
Split train station is right in the city centre, it is a few minutes walk from the port and from the old town. Expect very friendly grannies to be waiting with signs saying "Sobe" (rooms) at all arrivals and they will jump on anyone with a backpack. The train station is rather basic, because train travel is not much used to Split.
Trains run between Split and Zagreb, Split and Perković (where you can change for Šibenik). Timetables can be found from Croatian Railways website [http://www.hzpp.hr/]. Trains are generally slower but slightly cheaper than buses in all of Croatia.
Trains to Perković through the picturesque valley/village of Primorski Dolac depart 5 times a day and stop in every station taking 1 hr exactly to do the journey. This is a very picturesque journey to make, and although Perković is simply a collection of houses you could get off and have a coffee or go for a walk in the hills before returning to Split. Connecting Trains leave Perković for Šibenik several times a day, and should be marked on the timetable in Split station.

On most intercity buses you pay a fee for luggage. This fee of about €0.5-€1 (7 KN, July 2013) per piece of luggage is paid to the driver upon boarding. Some drivers are rather picky about being paid in exact change in the correct currency (sometimes a local currency, at other instances requesting to be paid in Euros) and sometimes also refuse to be paid in too small coins. So keep some change ready.

By Cruise Ship
Split is a popular stop on a lot of cruise itineraries. Larger ships tend to anchor in the bay and tender passengers to shore very close to the Old Town. Occasionally, if there is room and the Captain is willing/able, cruise ships will squeeze in to dock at a spare pier in the main port, removing the need to tender to shore. If this happens on your cruise, allow about a 15min walk to reach the Old Town.
-
Central Split is quite compact and most sights can be easily seen and best experienced on foot, but there are frequent local buses to outlying attractions and the airport.

Diocletian's Palace (UNESCO heritage site) - The historic centre of Split is built around the remains of this Roman palace. You only need to wander around to experience it but you can also pay to visit the excavated remains of the basement of the palace. The palace has well preserved main streets cardo and decumanus. Roman palace is enriched with some gothic and reinassance buildings which makes a perfect match. Palace has 4 monumental gates Porta Aurea (Zlatna vrata, Golden gate), Porta Argenta (Srebrna vrata, Silver gate), Porta Ferrea (Željezna vrata, Iron gate) and Porta Aenea (Mjedena vrata. Bronze gate). It is probably the best preserved Roman palace in general.
*St. Duje's cathedral - Originally built around 305 AD as a mausoleum for the Roman emperor Diocletian (the oldest cathedral building in the world). The Cathedral is also a very beautiful mixture of Roman temple and Catholic church. It also has a beautiful belltower which provides you a great panoramic view of Split, nearby islands and Marjan hill.
*Peristil square (Peristylium) - Main square of Diocletian's palace with well preserved Roman architecture.
*Jupiter's temple - Ancient Roman temple which became St. John's church.
*Two original Egyptian sphinxes- One is located on Peristil square, and the other in front of Jupiter's temple or St. John's church. They were brought from Egypt by Roman emperor Diocletian.
*Riva is the main city promenade. Since 2007. Riva has a new, "modern" look, which is not accepted by most of the people.
*Marjan - a hill situated on the west of Split. Marjan is an oasis for many people who look for a natural stress relief, a great place for long walks, jogging, and bike rides. Marjan's peak, Telegrin is 174 m high and gives a wonderful panoramic view of Split. South cliffs are popular within alpine climbers. St. Nicholas church is situated on the east of Marjan, on it's south side are beautiful St. Jeronimus church and "Gospe od Betlema" church (Madonna of Betlehem). House building is strictly forbidden in order to save Marjan - the lungs of Split.
*Varoš - one of the oldest parts of town. A place where lived most of the city peasants and fishermen. Charming streets and and beautiful small houses.
*Galerija Meštrović - gallery contains works of Ivan Meštrović, famous Croatian sculptor.

*Poljud stadium known to locals as "Poljudska Ljepotica" (Poljud Beauty")is a second largest stadium in Croatia and has a capacity of 36,000 people. The stadium was originally constructed by the Yugoslavian government as part of the facilites for the 1979 Mediterannean Games and was officially opened by Josip Broz Tito, who was avowed fan of the team who play their home games in Poljud HNK Hajduk Split. By far the most important and revered sports team in Dalmatia, a dedicatet fanbase around the world has followed Hajduk throughout the team's history. There are numerous anecdotes about Hajduk never played without at least some of their loyal fans in the stands, the Torcida. It is the oldest supporters group in Europe. If you are going to visit some match do not go on north part, which is the cheapest one, that part is reserved for Torcida.
*is the smallest park in Split, situated in the Diocletian's palace (ONLY GREEN AREA INSIDE OF THE CITY WALLS), Dominisova street (Marko Antonio De Dominis street). In the park there are beautiful traditional Dalmatian tiramolas (that is a way how the locals dry their clothes). During the summer these are full of clothes drying in the sunshine. In every guidebook about Split you have pictures from the Getski vrtal. It is the location of a 500 year old stone house which was destroyed during World War II. On the facade facing towards Getski vrtal you can see two heads made of stones. One of the heads is a sphinx with a Christian cross on the forehead and second one is head of middle age thief. Getski (from ghetto) vrtal (garden) is made and maintained by the locals who live in houses near by.
*Sustipan and old Jewish cemetery

Sunbathe and swim on the beach at Bačvice. To reach this beach walk south along the waterfront from the bus station ant then follow the road that crosses the railway line. There are many cafes and places to eat ice cream. This is certainly not the best beach in Croatia (it is packed solid most of summer), but it will give you a feeling of 'real' Croatia as the vast majority of people who go there are from Split. There are also beaches around hill Marjan. Most popular are Kaštelet, Kašjuni and beautiful pine forest beach Bene. On Bene beach there is a restaurant and a recreation centre. Bus No. 12 travels there.
* Climb the campanile bell tower next to the palace mausoleum. The stairs cling to the inside of the tower, and in places the steps cross the large open window spaces. The ascent is certainly not for those with vertigo, but the views from the top are marvelous. It costs only 15 kn to go up the bell tower.
* The historic core of Split with Diocletian palace is among the first urban complexes to enter the list of the UNESCO world heritage in year 1979. Most probably this one of a kind Imperial Palace was built from 298-305 AD and is one of the most significant original structures of the period mostly because so much of it has been preserved. Later this Palace contributed to the broadening of the town because as the city evolved beyond its walls. The unique substructure halls were newley explored and each year more of them are opened to the public. Some have fascinating artefacts on display. May - Oct 10AM-12 noon-7PM (?).

*It is said that if you touch the big toe of the statue and make a wish, your wish will come true.
*1 hour walking from the Diocletaian palace, situated on Marjan hill. Amazing place with beautiful view on islands. Locals have a story that St Jeronimus (born in Stridon) lived in these caves. More likely to be that he lived in Palestine. But the fact remains that he was proud of his Dalmatian origin. He translated Bible from old Greek language to old Latin language.

Sailing
There are lots of companies running boats, such as Busabout, Topdeck and Contiki.
The majority of sailing charters start from the city of Split. There are many charter agencies where you can charter a sailing or motor yacht which are based in Split. Most of them operate from ACI marina Split, marina Zenta or marina Spinut. There are also many charter agencies based in marina [wiki=ee048f491361710aa3881fc662d4dfa2]Kaštela[/wiki] which is based in the vicinity of Split.
When you charter a yacht through a charter agency and arrive to the designated marina there are a few things that need to be done.
The most important thing is the yacht check in (usually Saturday around 4PM). Take your time doing yacht check in. Familiarise yourself with the chartered yacht and with the yacht equipment. The rule of thumb is the more time you take for the yacht check in, the less time you will need for the yacht check out.
After that you have to do the shopping for the charter vacation. Don't neglect the groceries shopping because the sea is unpredictable and you don't want to get stuck on the boat without sufficient provisions of food and drink.
You can do the shopping in a marina although the prices are usually much higher there, or you can order from yacht provisioning services who usually deliver the products to the marina at no extra fee. In Jam Yacht Supply [http://www.jamyachtsupply.com/] offer an online provisioning catalogue and you can order from a large selection of groceries and other products months in advance, everything you order awaits for you at the marina.

The most famous local delicates is Soparnik. It originates from nearby Poljica region (formerly known as Poljička Republika or Republic of Poljica). It is a dough filled with mangold vegetable and baked on fireplace. On top comes olive oil and garlic. You can find it on Pazar (green market).
Italian influences dominate on Croatia's coast, amongst the best are; Risotto with tender white scampi or black calamari, a dish beloved by all Croatians. A wide selection of salumi, magnificent Istrian and Dalmatian hams (Dalmatinski pršut - comparable to Parma or Speck) and cheese from the island of Pag, are well worth trying, as are the large varieties of excellent Croatian wines and beers.
Do not miss Dalmatian pašticada s njokama (Gnocchi).
Please note; in a world suffocating under the weight of processed foods, Croatia's coastal cuisine is unique in that most of its produce is organic.
Ćevapi or Ćevapčići (diminutive), are small grilled rolls of minced beef, pork, or lamb, or a combination of any of these three. Usually served with chopped onions, Kajmak (similar to clotted cream) or Ajvar (a relish made from bell peppers, aubergines, garlic and chilli).

Klis - Klis Fortress (Croatian: Tvrđava Klis) is a medieval fortress situated above a village bearing the same name, about 10km the city of Split, in central Dalmatia, Croatia. From its origin as a small stronghold built by the ancient Illyrian tribe Dalmatae, becoming a royal castle that was the seat of many Croatian kings, to its final development as a large fortress during the Ottoman wars in Europe, Klis Fortress has guarded the frontier, being lost and re-conquered several times throughout its more than two thousand year-long history. Due to its location on a pass that separates the mountains Mosor and Kozjak, the fortress served as a major source of defense in Dalmatia, especially against the Ottoman advance, and has been a key crossroad between the Mediterranean belt and the Balkan rear. Klis has enjoyed relative obscurity, managing to avoid being on the tourist radar (it is not even mentioned in the latest "Lonely Planet - Croatia" publication) until 2014 when it became a filming location for hit TV show "Game of Thrones", standing in for the fictional city of Meereen since season 4. Despite this, you will generally have the fort to yourself to explore. Entrance fee is 20Kn. The easiest bus to get from Split leaves from the plaza near the National Theater (just north of Diocletian's Palace) and will take you directly to Klis village bus stop at the base of the Fort - journey time is about 25mins. Alternatively, from Split's main bus station at the port, take a bus towards Sinj and ask the driver for Klis. As they are larger buses they can only drop you beneath the village on the main road, so you'll need to walk up to the fortress (allow about half an hour for this).
*[wiki=ee048f491361710aa3881fc662d4dfa2]Kaštela[/wiki] - 7 old villages, today connected and form one big city. Perfect for beautiful walks near the sea and taking a swim away from the big city. There are a wide variety of resaturants to choose from for an authentic Dalamatian cuisine. Each village has it's on castle (henche the name Kaštel), and some of them are open to public. Ask the locals for best sights, both near the sea and up in the hills. There are a lot of old churches and castles, and some breathtaking views.
*[wiki=3633a96908a5e315997de7826b173a46]Trogir[/wiki] - a historic town and harbour on the Adriatic coast in Croatia, with a population of approximately 13,000. Today it is part of the greater Split metropolitan area or conurbation which numbers over 400,000 inhabitants. It is on the UNESCO World Heritage List as it is one of the best preserved medieval towns in Europe. It is a fascinating place to just wander and also contains a range of accommodation. At present the town is undergoing considerably redevelopment, but it far from fully developed and you will still find run down or even abandoned houses. It is definitely worth the day trip from Split.
*[wiki=def2dc9c6d8c08abbceb0693016ec3a9]Salona[/wiki] - ancient Roman colony, one of the biggest towns of Roman Empire. It had a population of nearly 60,000 people. It was a capital of Roman province Dalmatia. Well preserved amphitheater, theater, basilica, cemetery and many other Roman buildings. Situated near town of Solin, 10-20 min bus ride from Split.
* [wiki=57e334eca1d4813a6748c74bd094e0e9]Hvar[/wiki] - A day trip by boat to this island is well worth the effort. Boats leave five times a day in peak season (July-August), three times a day outside this period (a single trip cost about 42 kn to Stari Grad on [wiki=57e334eca1d4813a6748c74bd094e0e9]Hvar[/wiki]). Hvar town is small but extremely attractive, with numerous large yachts moored in the harbour. If using the left luggage service ensure you thoroughly check the prices and conditions of use.
* [wiki=594024c36483acd3faccaed22fa64ff6]Brač[/wiki] - An alternative could be the boat to the island of Brač which is just the other side of the water. Boats leave up to 10 times daily and it takes you 1 hr to Supetar. The last ferry back to Split leaves at 10:45PM.
Try renting a bike or scooter for exploring the island. When renting, take into account that the rental service normally closes rather early but when you ask for it, they are quite flexible as most people are in Split. A return ferry ticket should cost about 70 kn and has no time restrictions within the same day.
