Welcome to Kaštela!
Riviera Kaštela – 7 reasons to visitThe town of Kaštela is located on the coast of the Bay of Kaštela. It has over 40 000 inhabitants, and it is the second largest town in the Split and Dalmatia County. It stretches over the length of 17 kilometers.
Our town is specific because of the fact that it developed around 7 settlements (Kaštel Štafilić, Kaštel Novi, Kaštel Stari, Kaštel Lukšić, Kaštel Kambelovac, Kaštel Gomilica and Kaštel Sućurac) or around castles. Each village has its own particularity merged into character of this part of Mediterranean. Radun and Rudine emerge in recent years as the two new smaller centers.
The eastern part of the city is a little industrial center. Cement factories, a steel mill and many shopping malls are situated there. Agriculture based on crops traditional for this region is developed in the Field of Kaštela an on the slopes of Kozjak. Growing of olives, grapes and cherries flourish in the recent times.
The western part of the town is more tourism- oriented. This is the area with most accommodation capacities: tourist apartments, rooms, camps and hotels.
There is a newly built Marina Kaštela in Kaštel Gomilica capable to accommodate large number of private and charter boats.
Kaštela is of the places with the best traffic infrastructure. We have an international airport Split – Kaštela, a railway station at Kaštel Stari, and access to Split – Zagreb highway at Prgomet and Vučevica.
There are many organizations and institutions which enrich cultural life of the town throughout the year.
The Museum of the town of Kaštela found its place in the Vitturi castle, and an exhibition room in onetime bishop’s summer residence in Kaštel Sućurac .
In February, traditional carnival festivities are held in Kaštel Sućurac, Kaštel Kambelovac and especially in Lower Kaštela (Štafilić, Novi, Stari) with tradition over 150 years long.
Every year from July 1 – August 31 the”Kaštela Cultural Summer” takes place. There are over 60 exhibitions, theatre shows, pop and classical music concerts, folklore, sport events and festivities (fishermen’s, hunters’, mountaineers’). Events are held at the most attractive places at the historic centers, castles and by the sea.
We especially highlight the “Evenings of Dalmatian Songs” held every July in Kaštel Kambelovac. Traditional a cappella singing arranged in modern or traditional manner is cherished there.
Welcome!
Split National Theatre (link: www.hnk-split.hr)
To compare yourself with others and with the different means to look in yourself, become more aware of your virtues and to admit your flaws – bottom line, to become a better person. It is not always easy to shake your stoned conceptions, stereotypes and prejudices while theatre has been doing it ever since its Antique times. We have always admired that vigorous individual on the stage dramatically colliding with senseless norms, narrow mindness, conformism and tyranny. Unique esthetical and social experience of direct contact with a live person on stage, in a collective exercise of thoughts inspired by our failed expectations, enables us to experience emotional earthquakes and we leave the theatre stronger and ready to confront reality. Or that is how we should feel leaving the theatre. Does the theatre today have such power and are we today, in times of bad times, capable of such confrontation? We invite you to verify this together, during the new theatre season made of great classical masters who, in their times and space, were also other and different.
Rafting on the Cetina river ( link: http://www.dalmatiarafting.com/en/%27%27extreme%27%27-rafting-cetina-.aspx ) is one of the most popular and most adventurous trips in Dalmatia. Rafting in the protected area of the river canyon attracts many tourists every summer. The quiet parts of the river and the second and third grade rapids enable a three hour combination of adventure and relaxation in the amazing Cetina river canyon
Hiking Kozjak Mountain ( link: https://unbridled.world/hiking-kozjak/ ) Kozjak is a mountain located above the town of Kaštela near Split. It belongs to Dinaric Alps, and it stretches from the pass of Klis in the southeast, to the above Split Airport in the northwest. The highest peak is St. Luka (799 m) above Kaštel Gomilica.
