Kaštel Gomilica

| |
Kaštel Gomilica, sometimes referred to as Kaštela, is a resort that sprawls along a six mile stretch of shore on the N side of the Gulf of Kaštela in Croatia, a diamond-shaped gulf extending from Split in the E to Trogir in the W and enclosed on its S side by the island of Ciovo, immediately S of Trogir.
In effect, the resort is a string of towns, each bearing the first name ‘Kaštela’ and named after the seven defensive castle built along these shores during the 15th and 16th centuries. Two miles E of the main settlement of Kaštela lies the new, purpose-built marina of Marina Kaštela, which provides 420 berths for yachts up to 25 metres in depths of up to 8.0 metres.

Transportation
Tourism
The region of Kaštela is very historic, with a succession of fortified settlements having been built along the shore between the towns of Split and Trogir. Seven of these settlements, all with the first name ‘Kaštela’, are preserved today and a number of them retain much of their former mediaeval appearance. Kaštela is also a good base for exploring the attractions of Trogir and Split, both only 20 minutes away by taxi.
