Omiš (Omish) is one of the most dramatically situated towns in Dalmatia, built at the very mouth of the Cetina River where the gorge meets the Adriatic Sea. For much of the medieval period, Omiš was a feared pirate stronghold — the Kačić clan controlled the Cetina canyon from their fortress above and raided Venetian and Byzantine shipping throughout the Adriatic. Today the town's adventure spirit lives on in a different form: Omiš is Croatia's undisputed capital of action and outdoor sports.
Our Avax meet-and-greet service in Omiš delivers your vehicle directly to your accommodation or a convenient central meeting point. This is ideal for guests staying at one of the numerous holiday houses and small hotels along the Omiš Riviera — a 15 km stretch of beautiful pebble beaches between Omiš and Duće, backed by the Mosor mountain range.
From Omiš, Split is just 30 km north along the D8 coastal road (or 20 minutes via the inland D70 road), while Makarska and its famous Riviera are 45 km south. The Cetina River canyon, beginning immediately behind the town, offers some of the most spectacular scenery in Croatia — whether you explore it by raft, zip-line, or simply by driving the canyon road inland to the Radmanove Mlinice mill and restaurant.

0–15 km

Driving Tips
Omiš is easily reached from Split via the D8 coastal road (30 km, 35 minutes) or the faster inland D70 road via Dugopolje (20 minutes from the A1 motorway). The canyon road south of Omiš towards Zadvarje is narrow, winding, and not suitable for large vehicles or caravans. The D8 coastal road south of Omiš towards Makarska follows the cliffside and is spectacular but has no barriers in some sections — drive carefully at night. Paid parking in Omiš town centre is available near the beach.
Frequently Asked Questions About Car Rental in Omis (Meet&Greet)
What adventure activities are available near Omiš?
Omiš offers white-water rafting on the Cetina (the most popular), zip-lining across the canyon (the longest zip-line in Croatia at 700 m), rock climbing on the canyon walls, kayaking on the river, and canyoning for experienced groups. Most agencies are based near the bridge in Omiš and offer daily departures throughout summer.
How far is Omiš from Split and Makarska?
Omiš is 30 km southeast of Split (35 minutes via D8) and 45 km northwest of Makarska (50 minutes). This central position makes it an ideal base for exploring both the Split Riviera and the Makarska Riviera with a rental car.
Is Omiš town itself worth exploring?
Yes, absolutely. The old town centre has preserved medieval streets, two fortresses (Starigrad above the town and Fortica on the river bend), the 17th-century Church of the Holy Spirit, and excellent fish and barbecue restaurants along the riverbank. The town also hosts the Omiš Klapa Festival every July — a major festival of traditional Dalmatian a cappella singing.
