With great flights to Split and an Easy Jet sale now on, what better time to check out holidays to the Split Riviera in, Croatia – With a veritable smorgasbord of beaches, little bays, historic towns and fishing villages, not to mention turquoise bays a plenty, Split is an ideal family holiday destination Saron Lease of Croatia Gems gives the lowdown on what the the Split Riviera has to offer…
The Split Riviera makes for a great place to base as there are many places to visit and activities to fill up the holiday hours. Visit the Krka Waterfalls & Sibenik, or take a Boat trip to Hvar Island & Blue Caves of Vis Island, visit the Mostar Old Town & Bridge or head up to the stunning Plitvice Lakes.
The best places for a villa holiday in Croatia are those little spots which have just the right buzz about them and where you can wander out of your villa and amble down t the bay where there are a selection of attractive, scrummy restaurants, a pretty harbour, a boat or two to an island or old town and some great beaches. Slatine Bay is one of of those places!
Slatine Bay
Slatine Bay is on Ciovo Island, easily accessible from Split Airport and is also a great place for a family holiday to Croatia. There are restaurants, beach bars and beaches within easy walking distance and it is only a 5-10 miniute drive from Trogir Old Town, the hub of the area with the best villas, so you have the best of both worlds here.
There are plenty of lovely beaches all along this piece of coastline so if if Croatia beaches are what you’re after then you won’t be disappointed with the Slatine Beaches – check out the beautiful, unspoilt Kava Beach and Plaza Beach with it’s sultry beach bistro! Or head down to the Arbanje end where you find the Arbanije Beach Bar for a more lively scene.
Slatine also has a rather wonderful water taxi service to Trogir Old Town and to Split Old Town which makes it a very sought after location – travelling by boat is gorgeous in the summer heat and much more of an experience! Getting to arrive into these fantastic medieval towns by boat is also a perspective you don’t often see and so it’s certainly a fascinating experience.
