When spending time in Split, Croatia, it is difficult imagining leaving the seaside splendor for anything else. But if you have ample time to spend in the region, consider the following daytrips from the heart of the Dalmatian Coast.
Islands
The cluster of islands located just off the coast of Split make for a productive daytrip. Island hopping is quite common among visitors, and many tour companies offer boat rides among islands like Hvar, Brač and Vis.

Bosnia & Herzegovina
To travel to points south in Croatia, it is necessary to pass through Bosnia & Herzegovina as a portion of the neighboring country juts into Croatia and touches the Adriatic Sea. Why not make the most of the proximity? Pack your passport and enjoy the quaint mountain towns along the way.
Krka National Park
Secret trails, wildlife and a wondrous waterfall are just a few reasons to visit this park, one hour north of Split. Take a dip in the waterfalls to cool off from the intense summer heat.
A stretch: Dubrovnik
Although the Jewel of the Adriatic is located approximately five hours south of Split, adventurous travelers may find it a doable daytrip. Travel back in time by roaming through the walled city and imagining Dubrovnik´s powerful past.
