This town is the biggest achiever in the tourism industry in Croatia. Productive clean Adriatic Sea is the main factor of its popularity. Big part of old architecture survived till today. Traditional low Croatian buildings, narrow paved streets and green squares are typical of this town. It is located on an island surrounded by 22 other small islands and this is what makes the coast so amazing.

You can enjoy shingle beaches here. If you enter the water, just five meters from the shore you will be stepping on ratchets but you still will be able to go farther. Along the shore there are small bays which are perfect choice if you want to swim with your family or children. You can also swim right from the cliffs which are located near many hotels. The beaches actually are not always able to let you enjoy a developed infrastructure (restraints, bars, showers), but this drawback can easily be compensated for by amazing nature, beautiful views of the old town and the islands. There are a few nude beaches here.
