Flights from Amsterdam to Split

Handy travel tips for your trip from Amsterdam to Split

Split is Croatia's second largest city after Zagreb and is located in the Dalmatia region, in the southern part of the country. Its location on the Adriatic Sea makes it a great destination for a beach holiday, but don't forget Split's beautiful port. Split is located on a peninsula, which means the entire city is surrounded by boats. This makes it ideal for trips to the Dalmatian Islands, such as Hvar, Brač, and Vis. Good to know: Split is in the same time zone as the Netherlands, so there is no time difference.
