The Places in Split You Need to Know About

The Best Time to Go

According to our 2023 stats, 53% of stags who booked with StagWeb went between March and May.

This period is popular because...

• The weather is outrageous
• It's just before wedding season, so the groom has plenty of time to recover
• It's before the peak summer holiday season, so the prices won't soar

How Long Do People Go For?

60% of our groups stayed for 4 days (3 nights).

3 nights is perfect if you ask us. That's two days without travel, so you can explore everything Split has to offer.

Also, considering the flight time, you won't want to travel to Croatia for less.

How Soon Do People Book?

A lot of stags booking Split with us last year booked last-minute.

We're talking less than a month before they were due to go... don't be those guys.

We'd recommend booking at least four months before the event, but the sooner the better.

Why?

Well, usually, the earlier you book:

• The cheaper the flights
• The better the availability of hotels and activities
• The more time you have to look forward to it

How to Get to Split...

What Airport to Fly to...

Split Airport is where you need to go.

Many UK airports fly to Split but check beforehand to avoid any slip-ups.

How Long is the Flight from the UK?

It can take between 2-3 hours to fly to Split, depending on where you go from.

It's slightly further than some traditional stag hotspots, but well worth it for the legendary party atmosphere and pretty much guaranteed sun.

Getting from the Airport to Split

The city centre is just 22.8km from Split Airport, and it will take around 30 minutes to get there.

Taxis cost around €33 and wait outside the terminal.

The shuttle bus is another popular method - it takes around 30 minutes and costs just €6, so this might be the best choice.

However, the easiest way to get to your accommodation is with a private airport transfer - if you tick the box on your Split enquiry, we'll add it to your quote.

Tips On Getting Around Split

Walking - Split is a pretty walkable city. That means you can stroll about soaking up the culture, stopping in all the bars, and enjoying everything it has to offer.

Bus - The buses cover the entire city, but become scarce late at night, so bear that in mind if you're out clubbing.

Taxi - Both taxis and Uber operate across the city if you don't fancy faffing about with the public transport.
