Got a ride in 10min to Mostar after signing and asking around. One guy driving to Sarajevo took me. Im one femaleThere is a huge parking area for the restaurants and you can ask around, though people might be going in either direction. Cars driving past will be slow if there's traffic
I actually wanted to go to Medugorje, but for some reason couldn't get a ride back to Čapljina from here. People didn't seem to want to take hitchhikers. Plus it's tricky to get to Medugorje from Čaplinja. So I decided to hitch back to Mostar first and take Bus 48 from there

Really difficult to hitch from: either try to work the entrance but thats unlikely to work and not clear whether cars entering are happy to pick you up or are just stopping anyway, or try to ask people. Lots of tour busses, campervans, and bikers, none of which work. Avoid where possible.Having said that, it's at least somewhere with a good view. And I got lucky with a long distance hitch to Budva, Montenegro.

Lots of traffic and space to pull over. But only maybe 1% rate of reactions at all. Many drivers pretend you don't exist and many are going north rather than south. Police don't care that you're there.Got a truck in the southern direction eventually!

Pretty nice spot with shade. This road is the best to get all the traffic going into Mostar. A bit of the hike up but its fine. Can be a better spot but shoudl do the job.―kiausiniuvagis

Stood on the intersection because two locals advised me too to catch also the traffic going from the town itself into direction of Dubrovnik. Not much traffic at the time so I could just stand kinda on the road and move to the side when needed. Didnt have hope after the whole day but a serbian guy was coming back from his epic trip on the islands picked me up because he drove past me on his bike while i was waiting. Had a great time with him. Drank some beers after in some random local pub. I changed my plans from going to dubrovnik to going to bosnia becauee i was sick of crotia. So my advice DONT HITCHHIKE IN CROTIA. HORRIBLE―kiausiniuvagis

It's not great, but it was the best place for me to stop from other ride. Also I took a break and visited a beach just below this parking and it was quite nice. To get more cars I was standing on the exit ramp from main road to parking, it is illegal in this road, but whatever, it worked. Cars are going really fast downhill, but it's manageable. I think in summer season the best way would be to just ask people who stopped on a break, it looks like quite popular viewpoint.―mandat

Previous driver left me there and recommended this bus stop to hike. It's really good, a lot of traffic, good visibility, decent place to stop - classic hitchhiking―mandat

There is no good place for drivers to stop on this road. There is a barrier for like kilometers, so I used small crossroad and it worked good. I had sign Opuzen and I recommend it. It should be quite easy to get to main road in Opuzen and then you can go to Dubrovnik/Split―mandat

Good spot, probably it's hard to get through border, especially in off-season, but I easily get a ride almost to the border and then I crossed it by foot.―mandat

The gas station was closed and the fruit vendors didn't like us even sitting on 'their' parking.―Chris9012

Just right before the toll station. Cars are slow and plenty of place to stop. Not too much traffic.―roadlifehacks
