Is there a train between Split and Dubrovnik?

1 Split (Croatia) - Dubrovnik (Croatia) Travel from Split to Dubrovnik by bus. There is no train connection available. The journey time is 4 hours. The bus ticket price starts at 13 EUR.



No, there is no direct train connection between Split and Dubrovnik in 2026. The Croatian railway network ends in Split, and although there were historical plans to extend it south, they were never completed. The most common and fastest way to travel between the two cities is by bus, which takes about 4 hours. Another popular seasonal option is the catamaran (ferry), which takes approximately 5 hours and stops at various islands along the way. Travelers can also take a train from Split to Ploče (via a bus connection or regional line) and then a bus to Dubrovnik, but this is less efficient than the direct bus. Most tourists rely on the coastal highway bus routes for this journey.
