Golden Horn Beach is located in Croatia and is one of the beaches along the Adriatic Sea. This unique V-shaped beach gets its name from its shape, which resembles a golden horn, and it extends approx. 500 m into the sea. The beach is made up of fine white pebbles that shimmer with a golden glow in the sunlight. The clear, turquoise water contrasts sharply with the white beach, creating a charming view. The beach is surrounded by lush pine forests on both sides, providing natural shade. It is suitable for various water activities, such as swimming, snorkeling, and windsurfing. The beach offers umbrella and lounge chair rentals, as well as several restaurants and bars serving local food and drinks. It is worth noting that the shape and size of the beach change with the wind direction and currents, which means every visit may offer a different experience. The recommended time to visit is May–October, when the weather is warm and pleasant.Bol · 18.3 km from Hvar Town

We stayed in Bol for 3 nights and spent the second night at the Golden Horn beach. It is a leisurely 30 minute walk. There are restaurants, bars and lots of water sports on the beach. We also bought foam mats for the beach (as the beach is very rocky).

Diocletian's Palace, located in the heart of Split's Old Town, is more of an old town than a palace. Two-thousand-year-old stone walls have blended into cafes and residential buildings; the clock tower, a later addition, offers panoramic views of red rooftops and the Adriatic Sea. The cellars now house souvenir stalls, the air thick with the scents of stone and olive oil. A few meters apart outside the south water gate, the masts of yachts and ancient Roman columns create a sense of time standing still. It's usually quite crowded, but in the evening, after the tourists have left, it quiets down, and you can hear your own footsteps on the cobblestone streets.
