Bacvice Beach is the closest beach to the centre of Split.

This small sandy beach is located in the Bacvice area of the city, a 10-15 minutes walk from Split’s promenade, the bus and train stations and the ferry terminal.

As well as the small crescent of sand, there is also a large concrete area which is popular with sunbathers and swimmers. While the beach itself is not spectacular, the sea is a lovely turquoise colour and very clean.

The beach is backed by lots of greenery and cafes and restaurants nestled in between the trees and gardens.

Slightly beyond the beach is the Bacvice complex. During the day time this consists of relaxing seaside cafes, restaurants and ice cream parlours. There is also a childrens play area including go karts, trampolines and bouncy castles. By night, the cafes become more lively and a handful of loud bars and discos open up.

Further along the coast you can enjoy a pleasant seaside stroll along the quiet paths or leave your clothes on some of the many rocks and enjoy a dip in the warm sea.

Split is the largest city of Dalmatia and second largest in Croatia. It is a major transit point to Dalmatian islands and other places on the coast. Very beautiful, but somehow hectic city full with travallers on the move.

The most convenient, busiest, youngest and sandiest beach is Bacvice Beach right in front of the Bacvice restaurant-nightlife complex. Wide with shallow waters, this beach fills up fast on hot days even though it’s not particularly scenic. You can shower off on the beach and down a cold beer in one of the beachside cafes.
