Arrival tips

Make landing easy

01

Pre-book for late flights

Buses thin out at night and taxi queues build after big arrivals. A pre-booked transfer waiting at the door removes the stress.

02

Old-town stays are car-free

If you're hiring a car, confirm parking or choose a base on Čiovo or the mainland — no cars enter the historic island.

03

Carry some euros

Croatia uses the euro. Cards are widely accepted, but keep cash for the bus, parking machines and small fares.

04

Heading to the islands?

A summer catamaran links Split and Trogir harbours. For day trips by boat, see our day trips guide.
