Šibenik, the only city on the Adriatic coast founded by Croats, rather than the Romans or Greeks.

The youngest of Dalmatia's cities, Šibenik, takes pride in its Croatian royal heritage, with not one but two UNESCO heritage sites – the Cathedral of St. James and St. Nicholas' Fort.

Next to London, Beijing, Berlin, and New Delhi, Šibenik is the only city in the world to boast two such prestigious heritage sites.

Venture beyond the Old Town

While the historic center of Šibenik is undeniably charming, don't miss exploring the lesser-known neighborhoods where you can discover authentic local life, hidden cafes, and traditional eateries tucked away in the city's winding streets.

Island hopping

Take advantage of Šibenik's proximity to the stunning nearby islands by hopping on a ferry or booking a yacht charter. From the untouched beauty of Kornati National Park to the idyllic shores of Prvić, each island offers a unique glimpse into Croatia's coastal paradise.

Climb to St. Michael's Fortress

For panoramic views of Šibenik and its surrounding islands, embark on a hike up to St. Michael's Fortress. This ancient citadel not only offers breathtaking vistas but also hosts cultural events and concerts, providing a memorable experience that combines history and contemporary allure.
