Every other day trip out of Split has a published fare. Split to Hvar is €6.40 off-season and €10.00 in season on the state tariff; Split to Vis is €7.20 and €9.10. The Krka transfer has no published tariff at all.
What a regulated day out of Split looks like
Krka is a road day, and this site publishes no drive time, distance, coach fare or entrance price for it, because none of those comes from a source it can name and date. The gateway argument — which port the day should actually start from — is settled on the transfer page and is not repeated here.
What is not settled anywhere else is the comparison. Agencija ZOLPP publishes a fare table for every state coastal line, and those tables cover most of the alternative uses of the same day. So the inland day can be priced, not directly but by what it declines.
| Alternative day out of Split | Line | Off-season fare | 29 May – 27 September | Vessel |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Hvar town | 9604 | €6.40 | €10.00 | Catamaran, foot passengers only |
| Vela Luka, Korčula | 9604 | €7.90 | €11.00 | Catamaran, foot passengers only |
| Ubli, Lastovo | 9604 | €8.60 | €12.00 | Catamaran, foot passengers only |
| Vis, on foot | 602 | €7.20 | €9.10 | Car ferry |
| Vis, with a car under 5 m | 602 | €40.60 | €52.00 | Car ferry |
| Krka, by road | — | No published tariff | No published tariff | Not a register entry |
The bottom row is the point. Four island days out of this city have a fare set by a public authority, published in advance and revised on known dates. The fifth has a price set by whoever is selling it. That is not an argument against going; it is an argument for knowing which kind of transaction you are in.
€52.00
what a car under 5 m costs one way to Vis in season on the state tariff — more than five adults on foot at €9.10 each
That comparison is worth holding in mind on a road day too, because the reason a hire car looks cheap for Krka is that its real cost lands on every other day of the trip. The vehicle that makes an inland transfer easy is the same vehicle that makes the island half of a Dalmatian week expensive and, on the catamarans, impossible.
Comparing transfer quotes without a regulated baseline
A state coastal line comes with a route, a vessel type, a named operator, a published fare and, on the public service lines, a contractual obligation to sail. A road transfer inland has none of those. It appears in no register, no operator is obliged to run it, and there is no tariff to check a quote against.
Which is exactly why the same inland day is quoted at wildly different prices by different sellers, and why none of those prices belongs on a page like this one. Use the published fares above as the baseline for what a regulated day out of Split costs, and judge the quote against that. The day trips that use the network are the priced comparison; what else in Croatia has a published price is a short list.
And the ticket at the far end
There is no Krka entrance figure on this page either, and there is none anywhere on this site. The park’s official 2026 price list could not be retrieved, so it is not published, estimated or inferred from the other national park. That absence has a page of its own, which also explains why a figure copied from a third-party guide is the least reliable number in your budget.
So the honest total for a Krka day from Split is: an unpublished transfer price, an unpublished entrance price, and a published opportunity cost of somewhere between €6.40 and €12.00 depending on which island you were not visiting. Two of those three you have to source yourself on the day. The third is above.
What do you need to work out next?
The day is priced by what it declines. These come next.
Where to stay
Should the inland day move to another base?
Split has 23 registered services; Šibenik has three.
Getting around
Which gateway should the day start from?
The same day from Šibenik declines three services instead of twenty-three.
When to go
When is the opportunity cost lowest?
The seasonal tariff ends 27 September and the commercial lines thin out around it.
