Beaches
The beaches of the Central Dalmatian islands frequently find their place among the most beautiful ones in the world. Many of them can only be accessed by boat, giving them an extra charm and exclusivity from mass crowds. Spend a day on Vis, the beautiful Stiniva beach, or on the sandy beaches of Biševo
Authentic Dalmatian cuisine
Slow down and enjoy the flavours of one of the healthiest cuisines in the world. Dalmatian diet is based on fish and olive oil, and there will always be seasonal vegetables spiced with Mediterranean herbs on the table. Every dish is complemented by a drop of Pošip, Bogdanuša or Plavac Mali from the sun-bathed vineyards
Fishing and farming tradition
Local people survived for centuries by catching fish and cultivating the scarce land. Take a stroll through the picturesque island villages and get to know the fishing and farming traditions deeply interwoven into the Dalmatian identity

The Romans and Greeks dropped anchor on the islands of Central Dalmatia long ago, and turned them into their colonies, building luxurious walls, summer houses, spas, bridges… Walking through the picturesque island towns is like going through a time machine, experiencing a sense of antiquity

Don’t forget to stay active! Explore the island on a bike tour, dive into the magical underwater world of Vis or climb the island’s largest mountain, Vidova Gora

TOP ACTIVITIES

Welcome to the country where summer starts in April and ends in November. No matter what kind of experience you’re looking for, you’ll find something to entice your interests

Sailing
The indented coastline with thousands of islets, cliffs, hidden caves, and coves where no human foot has yet set foot is a real challenge for adventurers and those passionate about untouched nature. Explore the Vis archipelago and the islets of Hvar, and the secluded coves of Šolta. When you feel the need to calm down, anchor in one of the modern equipped marinas
Vineyards
In the rugged area where the sun shines all year round, the vines have found their refuge. The first vineyards date to the time before Christ, and today they are a treasure trove of first-class wine varieties. Feel truly relaxed with a glass of Pošip, Vugava or Bogdanuša
Olive groves
In Dalmatia, the olive tree is sacred. The hardworking hands of the farmers who left sweat and tears in the olive grove credibly tell the story of the unbreakable love and tradition for olive growing. Without a drop of olive oil, there is no joy at the table for people of Dalmatia!
