Split Sailing Itinerary

Split (Marina Kastela) → Vodice → Šibenik (36 NM)

Vodice is a tourist center which is known for its age and the tradition it has. We start our Split Sailing Itinerary with Vodice because it has received “The Tourism Flower Award” due to its attractiveness to visitors. There are many churches and beautiful sights to see. You have to visit the church of Karmela and the church of the Holy Cross with its bell tower. It’s also an island full of sports activities such as scuba diving, fitness in the sea, cycling, beach volleyball.

Šibenik is also a city known for its tradition and its cultural heritage. It’s the oldest self-settled city in Croatia. Šibenik is an ideal destination during summer because of the summer festivals which take place every year during that period. You should also visit the monuments, the city walls and the church, which are the most characteristic buildings in the city.

On day 3 of our Split Sailing Itinerary, we suggest visiting Iž. It is an island separated in two little villages, Veli Iž and Mali Iž. The whole island is surrounded by olive gardens, fig trees, and vegetable plantations. Iž is well known for its long fishing tradition. What's remarkable about Veli Iž is the pottery art that bloomed and was developed by the citizens of the village.

Another separated island is the Ugljan. Half of the island is covered with olive trees, fig trees, vineyards, dense bush, pine trees and other Mediterranean plantation, so it is called green part. The other half is stony and desolated. The island is connected with the fishing activity either.

End the day of your Split Sailing Itinerary in Zadar, also known as the southern Dubrovnik. Beautiful beaches, colourful sunrisings, history and always full of people. Zadar is home to around 70,000 people and it’s a joy to explore. In Zadar, you will experience something completely different. Its construction has taken place in the harbour area. Some stone steps immersed in the water. These have underwater pipes in them that sound musical notes when filled with water. This construction creates a harmonica effect that sounds as if each wave is gently sighing. This is called "The Sea Organ" and "Greeting to the Sun".
