Venetian Works of Defence between the 16th and 17th Centuries: Stato da Terra – Western Stato da Mar
This property consists of 6 defense works in Italy, Croatia and Montenegro. The fortifications throughout the Stato da Mar protected the sea routes and ports in the Adriatic Sea. They were necessary to support the expansion and authority of the Serenissima. The introduction of gunpowder led to significant shifts in military techniques and architecture that are reflected in the design of fortifications throughout Europe.
You will stop to visit the St Nicholas Fortress, situated at the entrance to St Anthony's Channel. The fortress was constructed during the 16th century to protect the town from the Turkish attacks. It is one of the strongest maritime fortifications on the Croatian coast.
Zlarin Island is known as 'the green island' or 'the coral island', as majority of its inhabitants were once coral divers. Cars are not allowed on Zlarin, so you'll stroll down the promenade before you head back to the boat.
On Kaprije Island, named for capers, whose buds are used as a spice in Mediterranean cooking, take advantage of some free time to purchase lunch on your own at a local restaurant.
There are two typical Dalmatian fishing villages on Prvic Island. Prvic Luka and Prvic Sepurine are home to approximately 400 inhabitants each. You will have free time on the promenade.
Return to Vodice.
Please note: Wear your swimsuit under your clothing; bring a towel, reef-safe/biodegradable sunscreen and a hat. The captain may alter the route on the basis of weather and sea conditions or guest preferences. Capacity 5 guests. Your private party may be of any size up to the maximum capacity. Private boats are ordered per vessel (not per person), so only one person in the party needs to order the boat. The price shown is the total cost for the vessel and skipper. Entrance fees for attractions are not included. In many destinations, the number of vehicles available is extremely limited, so guests are encouraged to secure their private boat reservation as early as possible.
