badgermom Posted May 4, 2010 #1 Share Posted May 4, 2010 We would like a relaxing beach day amongst our crazy European touring. I see there are a couple of beaches in or near split. Brac Island and Brela Neach. Has anyone been to these places? WHch is better? How do I get there? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniela32 Posted May 6, 2010 #2 Share Posted May 6, 2010 (edited) Island Brac would be much better than Brela. Ferry boat is within walking distance from your ship. There are ferry boats every hour or less during the summer season and the ride takes about 45-50 minutes. Edited May 6, 2010 by Daniela32 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
badgermom Posted May 11, 2010 Author #3 Share Posted May 11, 2010 Daniela, Do you happen to know how i get from the ferry to the beach. Can we walk or take a taxi? What else is there to do near the ferry Thanks for the help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniela32 Posted May 11, 2010 #4 Share Posted May 11, 2010 Ferry boat docks in Supetar, small town (but biggest on island). Everything is very close. You'll need to walk about 15 minutes to find a beach. You can find additional info about Supetar here, klick on this link: http://www.bracinfo.com/supetar/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cruiseinsp Posted July 1, 2010 #5 Share Posted July 1, 2010 Daniela, We will be visiting yor city on September 25, 2010 aboard the Celebrity Century. We will only be there for the day and wondered what you would suggest? Dubrovniktravellady recommended asking you. We will appreciate any assistance and advice. Thank you, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LdyDDS2 Posted July 7, 2010 #6 Share Posted July 7, 2010 Isn't there a beach right in Split that we can hang out at? I thought I read something somewhere about it. Thanks for your help! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniela32 Posted July 7, 2010 #7 Share Posted July 7, 2010 Yes. If you want to go on foot, there is Bacvice (Bachvitze) Beach 10 minutes walk far from your ship. If you go further the same direction, you'll find more beaches. Or you can go to the Bene Beach by bus number 12. Bus station is on the opposite side of the Riva promenade, near the Sv Frane Church (5 minutes walk). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lspiegel17 Posted July 12, 2010 #8 Share Posted July 12, 2010 What about a trip to trogir? Is it worth the journey to go visit it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SShillet Posted June 8, 2014 #9 Share Posted June 8, 2014 Which beach has the clearest water between Brela Beach, Brac Island and Trstenik beach? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniela32 Posted June 10, 2014 #10 Share Posted June 10, 2014 They're all known for it's crystal clear sea. Brela is too far for cruising guests, there is no highway and you may end up staying for hours on the road in case of minor car accident. Summer crowds on the streets are quite common. Trstenik beach has a blue flag and is quite close , maybe 5 or 10 minutes drive. Island Brac is beautiful too.

SShillet Posted June 11, 2014 #11 Share Posted June 11, 2014 Thank you so much Daniela! A few follow up questions : ) 1) Is there any big difference between Brac and Trstenik? 2) How far is Brac Island from the cruise terminal? 3) If we arrive at 7am and leave at 4pm, does that allow us enough time to go to one of these beaches for about 2-3 hours and then have time to walk around the Dioclentian's Palace? Also, how far is the Dioclentian's Palace from the cruise terminal? Thanks again for all of your help. Very much appreciated! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniela32 Posted June 11, 2014 #12 Share Posted June 11, 2014 (edited) Your best option is to go to one of our beaches in Split, Trstenik is in Split, in front of Radisson Blu hotel. This will give you enough time to explore Diocletian palace. Trstenik beach is 10 minutes drive, palace is within 5-10 minutes walking distance. Island Brac is 50 minutes far, by ferryboat, and I would not suggest you to have unnecessary rush.

SShillet Posted June 11, 2014 #13 Share Posted June 11, 2014 Thank you Daniela! We will take your advice and take a taxi to Trstenik and then walk around the palace. Any restaurant recommendations? :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniela32 Posted June 11, 2014 #14 Share Posted June 11, 2014 It's not allowed here on CC to give recommendations for restaurants or tour guides by local citizens. But I can highly recommend our seafood as a choice of meal. Sent from my GT-I9300 using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
