Inbox is an open-air bar set above Split’s harbour that has wooden deck flooring and a dipping pool for steamy summer nights. Sipping a cocktail at Inbox’s circular bar, while you watch the ferries cruising by is an iconic summer experience. When the sun goes down, drinkers hit the decks and dance to the strains of old school pop.

Split Circus
Split’s nightlife scene is focused around the Dosud drinking strip, and this popular bar is one of the best in the area.
