Blue Lagoon Croatia (Krknjasi Bay)

So, Is the Blue Lagoon Worth It? Yes. The Blue Lagoon is 100% worth visiting—especially if you're based in Split and looking for an easy, breezy way to explore the coast. It's beautiful, it's refreshing, and it delivers everything you imagine when you think of summer in Croatia.

While there are ferries that can take you to Drvenik Veli, to reach the Blue Lagoon you'll have to hop on a speedboat, which takes 30 minutes from Split. That means you'll want to plan a stay in the ancient city as most excursions depart from there or from nearby Trogir.

When to go and how long to stay. We arrived to the Blue Lagoon at 7 pm and stayed about 2 hours, which was more than enough. When we arrived, the weather did not look great, but by 7 pm the sky cleared. Luckily it wasn't busy, sun came out and we had a great time.

Dive into the crystal-clear waters of the Blue Lagoon, a sheltered bay perfect for swimming and snorkeling. Cruise past the scenic shores of Čiovo Island, known for its pine forests, rocky coves, and clear turquoise waters.
