The road between Split and Dubrovnik passes near Bacina lakes and we suggest you visit them, at least for an hour or so. You can do many things in this beautiful landscape, enjoy in one of the beach bars or take one of the adventure tour options on the lakes.

The drive along Croatia's Adriatic coast is one of Europe's most scenic, offering several world-class stops. A popular first stop is Omiš, a former pirate stronghold where the Cetina River meets the sea, perfect for a quick hike to the Mirabella Fortress. Further south lies the Makarska Riviera, famous for its pebble beaches and the Biokovo Skywalk—a glass-bottomed lookout perched high above the coastline. For food lovers, the Neretva Valley offers a change of pace with its mandarin groves and river cruises, while the town of Ston is a mandatory stop for its "Great Wall of Europe" and world-famous fresh oysters. If time permits, taking the bridge to the Pelješac Peninsula allows for visits to prestigious wineries. Finally, just 20 minutes before reaching Dubrovnik, the Arboretum Trsteno offers a peaceful stroll through historic gardens that served as a filming location for Game of Thrones. These stops break up the four-hour drive into a series of memorable cultural and culinary adventures.
