The Croatian city of Kastela is made up of seven smaller seaside villages that were built around Medieval castles. As you might’ve guessed, the Croatian word “Kastela” means castles. Today we’ll take you to the village of Kaštel Stari, or “old castle”. Wondering what to expect of Kaštel Stari, Croatia? Well, when you travel to Kaštel Stari you’ll see picturesque pebble beaches with pristine sea water washing upon the shore, boats gently rocking along the waterfront, a seaside promenade, and scenic views if you hike up to the top of Malacka Hill. In the neighbouring area of Split, there is more to experience with its many shops, cafes, and the striking Diocletian Palace, built for a Roman emperor in ancient times. Let’s go check out some of the excellent accommodation options nearby!
