One could easily say the Bačvice beach lives its life to the fullest throughout the whole year. This popular Split bathing spot and a place where many interesting events take place has officially been opened in 1919. It even has its own hymn-like song “Idemo na Bačvice” (Let’s Go to Bačvice). This favourite destination of swimmers, athletes, musicians, picigin players, culture lovers and many other, is indeed a natural phenomenon with a sandy beech in the very heart of the city next to the city harbour when in hot summer days during the bathing season several thousands sea lovers and adventurers enjoy its magic. Not so rarely people will say this is Croatian Copacabana, where is always someone playing a popular game “picigin”. But, this beech is special for many more things, hidden in the secrets known by the sand and the sea adorning the beach itself. Which secrets? Come, see for yourself what is it so charming and particular about this place, and then maybe, you’ll create your own story…
