Not only is the Blue Cave one of the unique natural phenomena in the world, but this bright and beryl attraction on Bisevo island is destined to be the highlight of your perfect days in Croatia. The magnificent work of Mother Nature, this cerulean oasis is so unique because it is formed due to seawater eroding limestone, a rock Biševo island is wholly composed of. Thanks to the sunlight’s reflection off of the white seabed, which creeps through the opening of a vault at the top of the cave, a mesmerizing blue hue fills its capacity. https://www.daytripsfromsplit.com/split-islands/island-vis/top-vis-attractions/blue-cave-croatia/
The central part of Split is a whirl of narrow stone streets, ancient monuments and medieval buildings. The main monument is the Diocletian Palace, the core upon which the city grew. Well preserved until today, remains of ancient buildings, along with late medieval extensions are valuable archaeological and historical-artistic complex which are on UNESCO’s World Heritage list since 1979. This extraordinary complex is one of the most imposing ancient Roman structures in existence today. Don’t expect a palace though, nor a museum – this is the Split’s living heart, its labyrinthine streets packed with people, bars, shops and restaurants. The Diocletian Palace was built as a military fortress, imperial residence and fortified town. https://www.lonelyplanet.com/croatia/dalmatia/split/attractions/diocletian-s-palace/a/poi-sig/445175/358789
Located near the coastal city of Šibenik, Krka National Park is named for the river that runs through its lush forests and feeds its most famous site, Skradinski Buk—a huge, clear pool that starts and ends in waterfalls. The park is home to seven travertine waterfalls, all fringed by pristine woodlands. Take a boat tour to Roski Slap waterfall, which features an old watermill complex that locals used for centuries, or visit the island of Visovac, located in the center of the Krka River. Visovac was first settled by Franciscan monks, who built a monastery on the island in 1445. The island’s current monastery, which dates back to the 18th century, features a small museum and lush gardens full of peacocks. https://www.visit-croatia.co.uk/croatia-destinations/north-dalmatia/krka-national-park/
