Split → Dubrovnik → Kotor road trip in August — advice needed!

**First time visiting Croatia & Montenegro — does our 8-night itinerary make sense? Any advice welcome!**

My friend and I are heading to the Adriatic in August and would love some feedback on our plan. We're flying into Split, renting a car, and doing a loop through Dubrovnik and Kotor before ending back in Split. Here's the rough breakdown:

- **Night 1:** Arrive Split (really travel day - only can grab dinner)

- **Nights 2-4:** Dubrovnik (3 nights)

- **Nights 5-6:** Kotor, Montenegro (2 nights)

- **Nights 7-8:** Drive back to Split with coastal stops (Pelješac, Makarska, Omiš), 2 nights back in Split

A few questions:

  1. Is 3 nights in Dubrovnik the right call or is that too long / not enough?

  2. Any must-stop towns on the drive back from Kotor to Split we shouldn't miss?

  3. City recs - if you have any that aren't on the list - please let me know.

Thanks in advance — this community always comes through! 🙏

P.S. I saw about wait times at the border - we are early morning people and would get a good start on the day if that helps.
