How to get to Poljica

The easiest way to reach the place is by car. You need to drive on the coastal road D8. 10 kilometres south of Trogir, you will notice the sign to turn to the village.
The other option is to take a bus from Split, Trogir, or any other major Dalmatian town.
The nearest airport is Split Airport, located less than 10 kilometres away from Poljica.

Beaches in Poljica are mostly pebble and concrete.
Some of the apartments are located just a few meters away from the sea, which is ideal for those looking to spend most of their time on the beach.

There is a coffee bar and ice cream shop just above the beach, where you can enjoy your favourite drink after a swimming session.

Poljica is a great destination for cyclists as well - the whole Marina municipality features lots of road and MTB trails.
September and October are usually the most beautiful months of the year for this activity.

Marina is the nearest big destination of Poljica. There you can do the shopping and find other facilities which are not available in the village.

Trogir is a small charming UNESCO-listed town located less than 10 kilometres away from Poljica. Visitors love its old town, fortress Kamerlengo, and Cathedral of St. Lawrence, which is a romanesque masterpiece of art.

Primosten is a small picturesque Mediterranean town worth visiting from Poljica. It features restaurants with the highest quality Mediterranean specialities.
