Your Journey: Private Transfer from Split to Gradac Along the Riviera
The drive from Split to Gradac traces the entire length of the Makarska Riviera — one of Croatia's most celebrated coastal stretches — before arriving at the quieter southern end where the tourist infrastructure thins out and the coastline returns to something closer to its natural character. Your driver picks you up from your exact Split address and heads south along the Jadranska magistrala, passing through the dramatic Omiš canyon where the Cetina river carves its way to the Adriatic beneath a medieval fortress.
From Omiš the route enters the Riviera proper, sweeping through Brela, Baška Voda, and Makarska with the extraordinary vertical face of the Biokovo mountain rising directly behind the rooftops. Continuing south past Tučepi, Podgora, and the quieter villages of Drašnice and Živogošće, the road eventually reaches Drvenik and then Gradac — the final settlement on the Riviera before the coast curves west into the Neretva region.
Gradac is announced by its extraordinary beach — stretching for 6 km along the coastline with clear, shallow water that has earned it Blue Flag status. The town itself sits at the northern end of this beach, a modest resort with good seafood restaurants, a pleasant promenade, and a character that feels refreshingly genuine compared to the busier Riviera centres to the north. Your driver delivers you to your hotel, apartment, or any address in Gradac directly.
💡 Travel tip: Gradac is one of those places that rewards visitors who seek it out — less crowded than Makarska or Brela, with a longer beach and a calmer atmosphere. In peak summer the coastal road through the Riviera can add 20–30 minutes to the journey. Your Go Shuttle driver will plan departure time from Split accordingly.

Can you pick me up from Split Airport for a direct transfer to Gradac?+
Yes. Go Shuttle operates transfers from Split Airport directly to Gradac with no stop in the city. Your driver meets you in arrivals and takes you straight to your Gradac accommodation. This is a popular route for guests flying into Split and heading directly to their southern Riviera holiday without an overnight in the city.
How can I pay for my transfer?+
For 95% of bookings no upfront payment is required — you pay your driver at the end of the journey in cash or by credit card. All prices are fixed and inclusive of fuel, tolls, and taxes. No hidden charges apply.

What will I see on the drive from Split to Gradac?+
The drive covers the full length of the Makarska Riviera. Leaving Split the road passes through the Omiš canyon before opening onto the Riviera proper — Brela, Baška Voda, and Makarska with the dramatic Biokovo massif rising steeply behind. Continuing south through Tučepi, Podgora, and the quieter southern Riviera villages of Drašnice and Živogošće, the landscape becomes progressively more peaceful as the tourist infrastructure thins out, arriving in Gradac at the head of its famous 6 km beach.
Is the price per person or per vehicle?+
All Go Shuttle transfers are priced per vehicle. One traveller or a family of four pay the same vehicle rate — making private transfers significantly better value than per-person alternatives for groups of two or more.
What is Gradac known for?+
Gradac is best known for having one of the longest beaches in Croatia — a 6 km stretch of pebble and fine gravel that has earned Blue Flag status for water quality. The beach is significantly less crowded than Brela or Baška Voda to the north, making it a popular choice for families seeking more space and a quieter atmosphere. The Biokovo mountain is visible directly behind the town, and the Neretva delta is nearby for nature excursions.
Can I extend my transfer to include a stop at Makarska on the way to Gradac?+
Yes. If you'd like to make a brief stop in Makarska or at any other point along the Riviera en route to Gradac, this can be arranged at an additional cost. Simply mention the stop when booking and your driver will factor it into the departure time and overall journey plan. Many guests combine a quick walk along the Makarska promenade with their onward transfer to the southern Riviera.
