Forgotten paradise - Martin Wright. Date of travel: Mar 2001
It was a shame it was just a weekend, because my wife and I have discovered a forgotten paradise! Right from the moment we caught our first sight of the Adriatic from the overnight train travelling from Zagreb to Split we realised we were about to enjoy a wonderful experience. Through the compartment window we saw the Dalmatian coast's white craggy cliffs and then the sparkling water in the early morning sunlight. Split itself rises up from the sapphire water with its white stone houses topped off with terracotta roofs. Finding accommodation in this pretty city is not difficult. The locals are eager to welcome tourists and we were hardly off the train before we were offered plenty of reasonably priced rooms to rent and tons of sightseeing information. We settled on one near the station which was also only five minutes from the beach. The beach was a little sheltered bay with fine shingly sand. While we were there we discovered it is quite safe to leave your things unattended on the beach while you go off for lunch or a drink. There are plenty of bars and cafes around the main beach. We also went sightseeing around the Roman ruins and nearby craft market, and some museums. We were disappointed that we couldn't find much in the way of genuine Croatian food. We enjoyed eating especially though on Brac Island that you travel to by ferry from Split. All in all we had a great time and I would recommend this coastline to anyone. We plan to go back as soon as possible to explore some more of the Dalmatian coast.
