VIEWPOINTS ON ŠOLTA: BEST PHOTO SPOTS & PANORAMIC VISTAS
It is truly difficult to single out specific spots on an island where almost every turn reveals a postcard-perfect view.
What captivates me most are the spectacles of sunrise and sunset – which, unfortunately, cannot be experienced from the same place. In this guide, I have selected over a dozen locations that will leave you breathless: from turquoise bays fringed by lush green pines to an archipelago of uninhabited islands that seem to hover above the sea's surface.
From these vantage points, you will see not only the vibrant cities of Split and Trogir but also the majestic neighboring islands of Brač, Hvar, and the distant Vis.

The western part of Šolta is a place where your camera never gets a rest. This region offers the most iconic vista on the entire island – an archipelago of seven uninhabited islets that, in calm weather, appear to be hovering between the sky and the sea.
Sunsets here are a true spectacle of color, shifting from intense gold to deep purples and pinks reflected in the Adriatic waters.
The vantage points in the west offer sweeping panoramas that allow you to feel the true vastness of the sea.

The eastern side of the island is the kingdom of morning light and the best place to observe the sea channel coming to life. It offers a unique view of Split and Trogir, which seem to be within arm's reach from this perspective, as well as the majestic channel separating Šolta from the island of Brač.
Sunrises here are moments of absolute peace, as the first rays bring out the turquoise color of the bays and the lush green of the trees lining the shore.
The vantage points in the east allow you to feel the proximity of the mainland while maintaining the island's intimate character.

The Observation Tower - the precise location of the hilltop tower with the best 360° panorama.

The interior of the island hides spots where the perspective changes completely.
From the heights towering above the bays of Rogač and Dolna Krušica, there is a phenomenal view of Split, which seems almost within reach.
This is where you will find the observation tower – a distinctive landmark on the island that serves as a perfect viewing platform.
These elevated points are the best locations for those wanting to see a full 360-degree panorama of Šolta, with mainland mountain ranges in the background and the open sea on the other side.
