Loads of space for cars to pull over if you are going south/split, little shade tho. Also good amount of traffic, after 20 minutes we (2 guys) had a ride to split. Used split sign

Great spot to get out!
Was trying to get to Mostar but failed and ended up Makarska.. maybe the Highway is the better choice

Great spot, prefer it to the toll station, cause the station is overwhelming

Loads of cars all going the same road, I had a sign and got picked up within 2 min (crazy!) there’s a food/drinks place here too, as well as a bus stop going to split

In theory great spot for Split/Rijeka/Zagreb, it's just full of tourists that don't take people and for the truckers it's good to catch them at the right time(for me early morning, as i slept here)

My friend and I waited here with a sign saying Zagreb and got picked up alm immediately by a beekeeper. Now I know what Royal Jelly is! 10/10 can recommend

My friend (f) and I (m) waited here with a sign saying Dugopolje for a very very short time, got picked up by a lady from Dugopolje who very proudly offered us to show us around her city and showed us the church. Great spot, can recommend :)

Got picked up after a really short wait with a sign saying "Zadar/Split", waited around 50m north the petrol station bc talking to people there hasnt worked out before. Got picked up by a lovely Croatian who took us all the way to split

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!

I didnt like this spot as much as other guy. I would say there is not much space to spot and a bit akward also as they coming out of turn into a turn. Provably better to try to catch in one of the earlier bus stops in this town. I think they should be better. But whole crotianis horrible just take the bus :))) waited 45 mins for a guy to take me almost to makarska

I waited only 5 minutes by the bus stop for a car that drove me almost 50 minutes down the coastal road. Really fun time, and probably your best bet if you want to go south on the coast :)

Waited here for an hour and didn't find a ride south. I then continued by bus to the omramp to the main coastal road and instantly found a ride from there.

Get prepared to get into the car quickly, and if you go to Zadar or Split you should reject cars going towards Rijeka. Police is there, but didn’t bother us

Perfect place for Makarska/Dubrovnik.
I get there with nr60 buss. There is alot of space for cars to stop, drivers slov down on turn. Also for hich-hikers in summer there is some trees for shade.
After 20 minutes of waiting, a couple picked me up to Makarska and offered me a place to stay.

After 43mins decided to walk to the next onramp which has better space for drivers to stop. Ofcourse, a "mad man driver" would have no issue stopping here.

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

2 guys with backpacks, hitchhiked to Zadar with sign Zadar.
It's a sunny spot (sunscreen recommended)
High traffic going slow and cars have a nice spot to stop
Very very low success rate tho...took us 90 minutes even with high traffic
