Trogir is a truly beautiful town located on a small island, offering stunning architecture and historic sights, as well as an array of cool bars and rustic restaurants lining the waterfront. Its proximity to Split means you can easily combine the two in one trip, and its coastal position allows for boat excursions to the likes of Šolta and Brač.
The town’s centrepiece is St Lawrence’s Cathedral, built from the 13th to 15th century – regarded as one of the finest in Croatia. Also worth a visit are Kamerlengo Castle, particularly for the views it offers, and the Trogir Museum for an introduction to the town’s history.
The town is also a good choice for beach life, with numerous amenities in the vicinity of Okrug Gornji and Medena Beach, which is also a popular spot for water sports such as jet-skiing and windsurfing.
With Split only around 30km away, it’s well worth making an excursion to see the magnificent Diocletian’s Palace, just one of the highlights of the Grand Old Town. Also, look out for many cultural events taking place around the city’s beautiful squares. Other notable attractions include the Split Gallery of Fine Arts, the Archaeological Museum, and the Mestrovic Gallery, which showcases the work of the country’s greatest sculptor, as well as the beautiful Marjan Forest Park.
