The coast road between Split and Dubrovnik is one of Europe's great drives, and a car makes it easy to add Plitvice Lakes, Krka or the Istrian hill towns. One-way rentals along the coast are popular, so compare drop-off fees when you search.
Driving from Split to Dubrovnik on the coast road passes briefly through Bosnia and Herzegovina at Neum. Tell the supplier when you book and check the car is allowed to cross the border.
