The boat slips away from Split Port as the city exhales—stone streets cooling, café chatter thinning—and the sea takes the evening light. On a 90-minute cruise you follow the sun along the Split Riviera, skimming pebble beaches and the pine-blanketed flank of Marjan Hill, the water pressing against the hull like an insistent companion. Čiovo Island appears as a low, tree-tipped silhouette; the horizon pulls the sun down while the city’s Roman walls begin to glow.
