How to Spend 3 Days in Trogir
15 Tours and Activities
With its prime coastal location and fewer crowds than neighboring Split, Trogir is ideally situated for exploring the Dalmatian Coast. With three days, you’ll have enough time to take in Trogir’s medieval Old Town and other highlights, get in some beach time, and go island hopping, too. Here’s how to spend three days in Trogir.
Day 1: Historic Trogir
Explore Trogir’s atmospheric Old Town, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, first thing on a walking tour. Visit Trogir Market for regional specialties on the mainland, then cross the bridge to the Old Town and pass through the North Gate, part of the medieval city walls. Most walking tours stop at landmarks such as Cipiko Palace, the Cathedral of St. Lawrence, the Benedictine Monastery of St. Nicholas, and Kamerlengo Fortress. To learn more about Trogir’s rich history, visit to the Trogir City Museum. Time a stroll along the palm-fringed Riva promenade to watch the sunset over the colorful marina, then head to a waterside restaurant for a seafood dinner, followed by drinks at one of the many waterfront bars.
Day 2: Island Hopping
Trogir offers easy access to some of the most beautiful islands and beaches in Croatia, and an island-hopping cruise is a quintessential activity. For those who want to escape the crowds, a leisurely cruise around the islands of Drvenik Mali and Drvenik Veli includes the chance to swim in the Blue Lagoon and stop at beach towns and fishing villages. An island tour, ideal for travelers who want to check off as many destinations as possible, might include Hvar Island, the Blue Cave on Bisevo Island, and Stiniva Beach on Vis Island. Alternatively, book a private tour or boat charter to customize your trip.
Day 3: Krka National Park
Get out in nature this morning with a guided tour to Krka National Park. Start out at Skradinski buk, the park’s largest and most impressive waterfall, then hike the scenic woodlands before cooling off with a swim beneath the falls. Afterwards, enjoy a cruise along the Krka River, stopping at the Roski slap waterfall and historic monastery on Visovac Island.
In the afternoon, visit nearby Sibenik to explore its medieval Old Town on a walking tour and spot filming sites from the television series Game of Thrones. Alternatively, return to Trogir and spend the afternoon swimming, sunbathing, or taking part in water sports on the beaches of Ciovo Island.

How to Spend 1 Day in Trogir
12 Tours and Activities
Whether you’re visiting on a day trip from Split or Sibenik or stopping over as part of a Dalmatian Coast tour, one day is just enough time to take in Trogir’s highlights. The medieval center can get crowded in summer, so plan ahead and book tours in advance to make the most of your time. Here’s how to spend one day in Trogir.
Morning: Explore the Old Town
A UNESCO World Heritage Site located on an island just off the mainland, Trogir’s picturesque Old Town is a warren of marble lanes and café-lined plazas, surrounded by the remains of its medieval city walls. The historic center is home to all of the city’s most notable sights, and a morning walking or bike tour is the perfect introduction. Tours typically take in the views from the Kamerlengo Fortress and landmarks such as Cipiko Palace, the Cathedral of St. Lawrence, and the Benedictine Monastery of St. Nicholas. Visit the Trogir City Museum to learn more about the city’s history before crossing to the mainland to purchase regional specialties such as local honey, olive oil, Croatian wine, and rakija (fruit brandy) at Trogir Market.
Afternoon: Hit the Beach
Trogir’s best beaches lie along the coast of neighboring Ciovo Island, linked by a bridge to the Old Town. Rent a bike this afternoon and set out to Okrug Gornji, on the west side of the island, which has over a mile (2 kilometers) of pebble beaches and plenty of beachside restaurants and entertainment. Spend the afternoon sunbathing and swimming in the Mediterranean, or enjoy water sports such as Jet Skiing or stand-up paddleboarding.
Alternatively, set sail on a half-day cruise and visit nearby scenic spots such as the Blue Lagoon on Drvenik Veli island; Duga Bay, on the south coast of Ciovo Island; and the fishing village of Maslinica on Solta Island.
Night: Cruise the Coast
The best views of Trogir are from the water, and sunset is an atmospheric time to sail the coast. Hop aboard for a sunset cruise around the islands, or head inland for a stand-up paddleboarding excursion around the Pantan wetlands. Back in the Old Town, the palm-lined Riva promenade is the place to go in the evening. Tuck into fresh seafood at one of the many seafront restaurants, sip cocktails at a terrace café, or take a walk around the marina and gaze out over the colorful boats and twinkling waters.

How to Spend 2 Days in Trogir
12 Tours and Activities
HWith two days in Trogir, you can explore its well-preserved medieval town, sample regional specialties, and hit the beach, and you’ll still have enough time to go island-hopping along the Dalmatian coast. Here are some ideas for how to spend two days in Trogir.
Day 1: Explore the Old Town
Morning: Take a morning walking or cycling tour of Trogir’s Old Town, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, to check off all the most notable landmarks. Admire the views from Kamerlengo Fortress; learn more about Trogir’s history at the Trogir City Museum; and visit historic sites such as Cipiko Palace and the Cathedral of St. Lawrence.
Afternoon: To explore farther afield this afternoon, renting a bike is a convenient option. First, pass through the North Gate—part of the old medieval city walls—and cross the bridge to the mainland. Visit Trogir Market to sample typical Croatian dishes and traditional rakija (fruit brandy), then head back through the Old Town and cross over to Ciovo Island, where you can tool along the coast and stop at the island’s beaches to swim and sunbathe.
Night: Sunset boat cruises are a popular evening activity, but for something a little different, head out to the nearby Pantan River for a paddleboarding excursion. Paddle along the calm waters as the sun sets over the riverside beaches, and look out for local wildlife, which is most active in the evening hours.
Day 2: Island-Hopping on the Dalmatian Coast
Morning: Some of Croatia’s most beautiful islands lie just off the coast of Trogir, and island-hopping cruises let you visit multiple destinations in one day. Perhaps set sail on a 5-island cruise including Hvar Island, visit the magnificent Blue Lagoon, or charter a private boat and devise your own unique itinerary. Alternatively, a day trip to Krka National Park is a popular choice for hikers and nature lovers.
Afternoon: Continue your cruise this afternoon to islands such as Hvar, Bisevo, and Vis, stopping to marvel at natural wonders including the Blue Cave and Stiniva Beach, or head ashore to browse the shops in Hvar Town. Many cruises include lunch, and all tours offer plenty of chances to swim and snorkel in the Mediterranean.
Night: Spend your final night in Trogir at one of the ocean-view restaurants along the Riva Promenade. Take a sunset stroll along the palm-lined seafront, then enjoy a dinner of fresh seafood and regional wine as you gaze out over the illuminated marina.
