To Split, with a swim at Makarska
Two to three hours north of Dubrovnik, the coast becomes a long line of pebble beaches with the bare wall of Biokovo right behind. On a summer day it is hard to drive past.
We stop in Makarska if you want cafés and a promenade, or in Brela if you want a quieter beach under the pines.

Makarska or Brela
Two to three hours covers a swim and lunch.

Good to know
Pack swimwear and a towel in a small bag so the suitcases stay closed. Tell us when you need to be in Split and we shorten or stretch the stop.
