Diocletian's Palace, Split
madriaticBLU destinations
Southern Dalmatia
The largest city on the Dalmatian coast, Split is a pulsating metropolis bursting with Dalmatian pride and character. The Roman Emperor Diocletian was born somewhere near the Roman settlement of Salona, just North of Split. Diocletian decided to build a grand palace near Salona where he hoped to retire. The palace complex covered almost 10 acres and was more or less a completely self-sufficient village. The old palace complex today composes the epicenter of Split's old town. After walking in the footsteps of ancient leaders, watch the young and fashionable of Split stroll by the sidewalk cafes of the white stone Riva promenade.

Crystalline waters lapping up against sun-kissed pebble beaches — picture yourself on the Makarska Riviera. The villages of Makarska, Brela, Igrane and Baška Voda are home to some of the most beautiful beaches in Croatia.

Korcula, Southern Dalmatia
Pelješac is a peninsula jutting North from the Southern Dalmatian coast. The peninsula is covered with vineyards and rocky soil. The village of Ston at the bottom edge of the peninsula was a major salt producing center in the past. As salt was one of the most valuable commodities in medieval times, the village was protected by a long wall snaking its way through the hills. From Pelješac, one can visit the Venetian-influenced island of Korcula, one of the most celebrated tourist attractions in Dalmatia. This island is steeped in history — the locals even say that the island was the birthplace of Marco Polo.

Dubrovnik, Southern Dalmatia
Dalmatia's crowning jewel is nestled by protective medieval walls and the cobalt waters of the Adriatic — Dubrovnik is often touted as the Pearl of the Adriatic. Once the capital of the powerful Republic of Ragusa, which ruled most of Southern Dalmatia, Dubrovnik is a city with a vibrant past, a great taste for freedom and a very bright future. Ragusa was a great maritime power from the 14th century until its fall in 1808, and its citizens were proud of their home, their freedom and their wealth — these sentiments continue in the residents of Dubrovnik today.

Our favorite experience:
There's nothing quite like enjoying a great seafood dinner and a bottle of full-bodied Croatian wine in the sleepy village of Mali Ston on Pelješac.
