We loved this little gem Villa Spiza in the old town. So delicious!!!
Definitely take the ferry to hvar for the day.
Also note that all the bakeries are so cheap and have great pastries for breakfast and snacks.

I was there a few weeks ago. Every night at 8pm, there's live outdoor music in the square where the bell tower is. There's a bar there, called Luxor. You sit on the steps outside in the square, and the waiter from the bar brings you drinks. We spent hours there!

Take the 50 min ferry to Brac Island for the best beach in Croatia. It's called Zlatni Rat Beach. Torquoise waters, boats, kayaks, outdoor bars, etc.

Krka national park is also a must see! Don't pay anymore than 23 euros for the bus ride there. It's an hour away from Split.

Taylor you're welcome. Have an amazing time. Croatia is by far the most beautiful country in Europe that we've been to. It's so clean, the people are friendly and we felt so safe there.

we didn't spend that long there, did 2 days and over to Hvar and on to Dubrovnic. We did enjoy a water tour on a Zodiac that took us to quite a few areas, beaches, islands etc. It was about 8 hours . And if I recall they started from Hvar but also I think from Split. We really enjoyed it.
