My Atmosphere

Sibenik is on the coast between Zadar and Split. The cathedral there, which is considered one of Juraj Dalmatinac’s masterpieces, was constructed in the 15 & 16th centuries. Among its unique features are the stone sculpted heads bordering the outside, and the baptistery in a small room in the interior. A walk through Sibenik’s old town really takes you back 1000 years. While accommodation may be available in town, a better choice would be in the hotels of nearby Solaris. Although some of these are still occupied by refugees, others have been renovated to serve the increasing number of tourists. We also enjoyed the beaches of Primosten, just south of Sibenik. There we stayed in a private home, but hotels were also open to tourists. In the nearby Marina Kremik both motor and sail boats were available to rent.
