Yes. October in Split is Lively on the typical day, and not one of the 31 days in our window is crowded enough to call Busy. Expect around 22 °C by day, with rain on about 8 days. The crowd comes with the school holidays in Germany, the Netherlands and the Czechia. Early October is the month's quietest stretch in Split — the typical day at 43%, against 51% in late October. The crush is at the Peristyle and the palace lanes; the quiet is at Marjan's pine paths. The calmest day is Friday 1 October, the busiest Wednesday 27 October.
In short, a solid middle-ground pick.
