When to go to Split?

Daily life in Split happens inside a Roman palace: Diocletian's walls now hold cafés, flats, market stalls and a cathedral, with washing strung above the colonnades. The seafront promenade runs along the harbour towards Marjan, where pine paths climb to views over the Dalmatian coast. Ferries leave for Hvar, and the Klis fortress guards the pass inland.
