The history of the Dalmatian Coast stretches back to the Old Stone Age, so there is no shortage of historical attractions. The cities of Split and Dubrovnik – both UNESCO World Heritage Sites – are probably the most famous destinations on the Dalmatian Coast, and rightly so, but the offshore islands of Brac, Hvar and Vis are also worth a visit. Back on the mainland, the Makarska Riviera, a stunningly beautiful stretch of coastline overlooked by the Biokovo Mountain, is another popular tourist destination. 

Cultural attractions on the Dalmatian Coast include various museums and galleries offering exhibitions of historical and contemporary art. The Dalmatian Coast also plays host to numerous cultural festivals during the summer months, not least the Dubrovnik Summer Festival. Dalmatian cuisine, which is essentially Mediterranean in character, includes an abundance of fresh seafood, including crab, lobster and octopus. Dalmatian brunch, or “Marenda”, is widely eaten in coastal towns and consists of bakery products, regional cheeses, smoked ham, fruits and vegetables.
