Šibenik

The ancient Mediterranean city of Šibenik, dating back to 1066, is located on the central Adriatic coast, between two airports. The city has two UNESCO protected sites of cultural significance – the architectural marvel St. James Cathedral, built 1431 – 1535, and the Venetian period St. Nicholas fortress. Impressive views of the medieval town begin with its four fortresses surrounding limestone houses, narrow laneways and terracotta rooftops.

Set on a hilltop, the historic town leads down to a crystalline blue sea, and an archipelago dotted with breathtaking islands visible as far as the horizon. Two outstanding national parks in the region are the Krka River with its series of waterfalls, and the cone-shaped Kornati islands-both are protected sites.
