Makarska Old Town wraps you in centuries of history with its honey-colored stone buildings and red-tiled roofs. Wander through narrow cobblestone streets past St. Mark's Church and the Franciscan Monastery while soaking up serious medieval vibes. The palm-lined Riva promenade is where locals and visitors gather to watch boats bob in the crystalline Adriatic waters. Fresh seafood dominates waterfront restaurants where you can sample black risotto with stunning harbour views. Boutique hotels and historic stone apartments make for dreamy stays within these ancient walls. Everything's walkable in this compact area, though those cobblestones definitely call for comfortable shoes.
