Parking in Split

It can be a challenge to locate a parking spot in Split, particularly in the Old Town and nearby areas that are primarily intended for pedestrians and have restrictions on vehicle traffic except for supply vehicles and permanent residents.

This can make it difficult for visitors who are new to the city centre, especially during the busy summer season when there is a lot of foot traffic from workers, tourists, travellers, and locals. Furthermore, finding a parking space can be difficult as the number of spots available is limited, and most parking in the small ring around the Old Town requires payment.

Parking near the Ferry Port in Split

For passengers arriving in Split and intending to catch a ferry connection to one of the islands of Central Dalmatia, the most common question is "Where to park the car closer to the ferry terminal?" The closest and safest parking place is the parking lot near the harbor, which offers parking spots for buses and campers. Visitors can also use the parking lot in Bijankinijeva street, which is only 900 meters from the Split Main Bus Station in the harbour and costs 1.50 Eur per hour.

For visitors planning to stay in Split for a longer period, the Acorus Garage is a covered garage located in the city centre, 500 m from the historical centre.

Car got towed, what to do

While most parking spaces in Split are monetised and marked in blue, some residential areas have their own free parking lots. Visitors staying in the Old Town and not using their cars for a few days might want to leave their cars parked free of charge further away from the city centre.

However, it is essential to ensure that your car is not blocking pedestrian traffic or breaking any traffic rules as illegally parked cars can be towed away. In case of your car being towed, please contact the towing service to make sure your car is really taken to their impounding lot. The impound lot works around the clock and both cash and credit cards are accepted.

Street parking around Old Town Split

Around the old historical part of Split (only in the second and third parking zones), visitors can find a lot of "street parking" available during working hours (from 07:00 to 19:00) for a fee paid using the automatic machine. The hourly fee depends on the parking zone. Visitors should remember to expose a receipt of paid parking in a visible place in the car (usually the front dashboard above the steering wheel). Outside of working hours, parking is free.
