- Getting there
- Split is well-connected by air with Zagreb, and there are direct international connections with London and Rome. Daily trains run between Split and Zagreb, as well as more than 20 buses. Split is connected to the nearby Adriatic islands of Brac, Hvar, Vis, Korcula and Lastovo, among others, by numerous ferries, and the cities of Rijeka and Dubrovnik are linked to Split by a coastal ferry. Should you be coming from Italy, there are ferries which run from Pescaro and Ancona.
- Ferries
- Split is Croatia's primary transport hub, and the ferry port in Split is immense. Split is the halfway point on the coastal ferry route: ferries begin in Rijeka, stop in Zadar and Split overnight and continue on to Hvar, Korcula and Dubrovnik. In addition to the coastal ferries, there are several local ferries which serve the nearby islands: Supetar, Rogac, Stari Grad, Vis, Vela Luka and Lastovo.
- Airport
- Croatia Airlines buses wait for the arrivals of all Croatia Airlines flights and depart from the Palace of Diocletian 90 minutes before the departure of each designated flight. Tickets cost 30 kunas. For other flights, you have the option of taking a taxi, which costs around 200 kunas, from the center of the city. There's also a Promet bus #37, which covers the Split - Trogir line and which passes in front of the airport. Buses run every 20 to 30 minutes. If you want to catch one, walk across the parking lot to an olive grove, where you'll find two yellow bus stops. Choose the one on the same side of the street as the airport if you want to go to Trogir, or cross the road for the bus to Split. One-way fare to Trogir is 8 kunas and to Split is 14 kunas, and you can purchase the tickets on the bus. The buses arrive at and depart from the Sukoisanska Street bus station in Split.
- By Train
- The Train ride from Zagreb to Split is a wonderful trip. From Zagreb, you first pass through cornfields, then through the hilly wine-growing region between Jastrebarsko and Karlovac. At Ostarije, the train heads through Lika, a beautiful mountainous region with contrasting mountains, plains, lakes and rivers. Approaching Knin, you'll find the scars of the war more obvious. And finally, as you near Split you'll discover the finest view of the city and its surroundings as you enter the Kastela Basin. There are a variety of trains running daily, and you can also reserve a sleeping car in a night train. During the summer, some of the night trains have "party cars" with a bar and a DJ to help the trip pass more pleasantly.
- Getting Around
- The best way to experience Split is on foot, as the city is beautifully laid out along the coast.
- By Bus
- Split has 20 bus lines, providing an extensive network with links to the surrounding towns. There are four zones with differing fares, however if you stay within Split you'll always be in the first zone. A majority of the bus lines stop at three primary bus stops in Split: HNK which is by the Theatre, Trznica, near the open-market area, and OPCINA, which is to the North along Domovinskog Rata Street. They usually run every 10 to 30 minutes.
- Single tickets can be purchased on the buses, but two-ride tickets purchased from Promet kiosks are cheaper. Tickets cost 8kn for a single or 12kn for a two-ride ticket for one zone, 10kn for a single or 16.50 for a 2-zone, 14kn or 21.50 3-zones and 18kn or 28 for a two-ride ticket in the 4-zones.
