Srima
If you are among those who really want to rest while on vacation, Srima is the right choice for you. You can choose among a number of private apartments right on the seaboard. After you have your breakfast on the terrace, you will literally step down to a beautifully maintained beach and clean sea.
If you feel like some summer partying after a whole day of lying in the sun and swimming, Vodice is not far away. Vodice and Srima have actually been one for a long time – few people know where Vodice stops and Srima begins.
The Srima peninsula was inhabited as early as the prehistoric and ancient ages. The most valuable and best-maintained archeological locality is the dual late ancient basilica complex in Prizba.
On the hill above the settlement is a little church consecrated to Our Lady. This is a single-nave building with a bell tower. The original altar with a painting was burned down in the 1918 fire, so it was replaced with a Byzantine Lady with a silver shirt. On the apse of the church is a valuable fresco from late 12th century showing Mother of God with a Child and St. Vid’s and St. George’s figures. A picture of a plowman next to St. George’s figure is quite interesting, probably a self-portrait painted by the author of the fresco.
Vodice
The town of Vodice is a tourist centre famous for its lively and various tourist offer and pleasant people.
It is a coastal town located in a wide bay, 11 km northwest from the town of Šibenik, the centre of Šibenik-knin County.
The town of Vodice numbers 10,000 inhabitants, and is considered an ideal place for vacation where everyone can find something that they will enjoy.

Sibenik
If you come from the sea, you will enter the Sibenik Bay through the Channel of St. Anna. It is protected by the fort of St. Nicholas built in the Late Renaissance style. The town of Sibenik used to be surrounded by walls on the northern and south-eastern sides. Only parts of those walls remain to this day.
At the central town square you can see a masterpiece by architect and sculptor Juraj Dalmatinac – the Cathedral of St. Jacob in Sibenik. The construction of the cathedral lasted, with interruptions, for over a hundred years. The whole erection is built of stone, the roof and the dome as well. It is a recognizable detail of the Sibenik panorama. The wreath of human heads surrounds the walls of the cathedral.
Opposite the cathedral, you will see the city hall, a very nicely constructed Renaissance building erected in 1536. During the Second World War it was completely ruined in bombing. After the war it was restored to its original shape.
Long ago a town prince, representative of the Venetian authorities, had lived in the prince’s palace. Only two wings of the palace still remain. Since 1975, after its adaptation, the Prince’s Palace became the Museum of the town of Sibenik.
The Theatre of Sibenik was built in 1870. At that time, it was the biggest and most beautiful theatre building in Croatia. During the Homeland war, it was damaged by a Chetnik grenade. It was thoroughly restored and officially opened in 2001. The drama group of the Sibenik Theatre performs several premiers a year.
In the summer, Sibenik is the host of the International Children’s Festival, a manifestation that has gathered children from around the world since 1958. Rich drama and music programs, performed by the selected ensembles from Croatia and the world, and art workshops are only some of the events that presented in the framework of this festival.
