Makarska
Makarska occupies a narrow coastal strip between the Adriatic Sea and the slopes of Biokovo in Split-Dalmatia County. The town extends around a sheltered harbour, where a palm-lined waterfront, ferry pier and marina underline its connection with the sea. Behind the seafront, compact streets rise through older stone houses and modern apartment blocks towards the mountain foothills. Makarska is the principal town of the Makarska Riviera, a coastal stretch between Brela and Gradac. Its historic core includes St Mark’s Cathedral on Kačić Square and a Franciscan monastery housing a noted Malacological Museum. The setting is defined by the abrupt transition from an Adriatic port to the limestone massif of Biokovo, much of which is protected as a nature park.

Makarska has served as a port on Croatia’s Dalmatian coast since the Middle Ages. The town occupies a narrow strip between the Adriatic Sea and the steep limestone slopes of Biokovo, a massif protected within Biokovo Nature Park. Its waterfront reaches the old centre around Kačić Square, where the Church of St Mark reflects Makarska’s Venetian-era urban heritage. The Franciscan monastery contains the Malacological Museum, known for its collection of marine shells from the Adriatic and farther afield. Ferries from the harbour connect Makarska with Sumartin on the island of Brač. Continue through nearby webcams to explore different parts of Makarska and the Dalmatian coast.

Built around the Adriatic coast, island ports and routes linking the hinterland to the sea, Split-Dalmatia County grew into Croatia’s central Dalmatian region. Its territory extends from the Cetina River and the Biokovo range to the islands of Brač, Hvar, Šolta and Vis. At its urban heart, Split is defined by Diocletian’s Palace, a Roman imperial complex whose historic core is inscribed on the UNESCO World Heritage List. The Makarska Riviera, old fishing settlements and vineyards lend the county a strongly maritime Mediterranean character. Brač, where these coordinates lie, is known for its pale limestone.

Croatia occupies a long Adriatic coastline in southeastern Europe. Its shore is broken into islands and sheltered coves, while the Dinaric Alps rise inland and the Danube forms part of its eastern border. Dubrovnik’s fortified old city faces the sea, and Split grew around Diocletian’s Palace, a Roman complex begun in the early fourth century. Inland, Plitvice Lakes National Park is known for terraced lakes linked by waterfalls and has been a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1979. Istrian olive groves, Zagreb and Slavonia’s vineyards reveal distinct regional identities.
