Bacvice Beach

Unlike the more secluded beaches around Split, Bacvice Beach is a fully-fledged resort area.  Rent sun loungers and umbrellas for a comfortable beach day.  Numerous cafes, beach bars, and restaurants line the promenade, offering refreshing drinks, delicious snacks, and full meals to satisfy your cravings.  Showers and changing facilities are also readily available.

Bacvice Beach is conveniently located just 800 meters from Split's city center, making it easily accessible on foot.  If you're coming by car, there's a designated parking area close by.

This beach was a very short walk from our airbnb.  It was not the prettiest beach we've ever been to, but it is nice and calm and shallow.  We also enjoyed checking out sunset in this area before dinners and before walking back into the Old Town.  This beach is also very accessible from the old town, about a ten minute walk.  

It's the perfect spot for families and beachgoers looking to soak up the sun and enjoy some fun in the water.
