💡 Tips

Use bus line 60 for frequent and easy trips between Split and Omiš along the coastal road.
Always wear water shoes as the beaches are pebbly and sea urchins are common in the shallows.
Hike up to Gornja Podstrana for impressive panoramic views and a taste of traditional stone architecture.
The sunsets here are spectacular; find a west-facing beach bar for the best view over Brač Island.
Pre-order your meal if you plan to eat 'Peka' in the mountain taverns, as it takes hours to prepare.

Miljevac is a part of the Podstrana municipality, located just 8 kilometers southeast of Split. Its position is characterized by the narrow strip between the steep slopes of Mount Perun and the crystal-blue sea, giving it a unique charm and diverse recreational options. The coast of Miljevac consists of well-kept pebble beaches, popular with both locals and tourists. The area has a long history dating back to Roman times, and local legends connect Mount Perun with Slavic mythology and the god of thunder. In recent years, Miljevac has evolved into a modern suburb offering high-quality accommodation. Proximty to Split allows visitors to explore Diocletian's Palace while relaxing in the peace of Podstrana in the evenings. Along the shore, cozy beach bars and taverns serve Dalmatian wines and grilled dishes.
