St. Michael's Fortress, located in the city center, is a restored medieval fort that offers guided tours and hosts various exhibits. It features an open-air summer stage with just over 1000 seats, making it an exclusive venue for cultural events and performances. The fortress, which served as a defense system in the past, provides stunning views of Sibenik and the Adriatic Sea from its upper courtyard.
If you ever come to Šibenik, you must visit the St. Michael's Fortress, absolutely awesome fortress above the old city with amazing views and of course great photo opportunities. The fortress has an open air theater and I wish to come back to enjoy one of the concerts during the summer season. Highly recommend to visit.
Tomislav P — Google review
There is not much to it as it's been modernised to make it more into a venue, I am sure it makes for a stunning venue for a close and personal performance and I would 100% go to an event here. But as a tourist location it really only offers a couple of nice views.
Wayne H — Google review
St. Michael’s Fortress offers breathtaking views over Šibenik, the sea, and nearby islands. The climb is well worth it, and the historic center below is full of charm with stone streets, lively squares, and beautiful architecture. Together they make a perfect mix of history, culture, and scenery.
G W — Google review
To be honest, the fact that this fortress has 9,000 reviews while the other two (Barone and Ivana) have just a fraction of that, I can only explain by remembering the lady selling the tickets. She was incredibly helpful, spoke perfect English, recommended other places to visit, and even helped us figure out how to get back to Vodice. As for the fortress itself, as a Czech, I didn’t find it particularly impressive. It’s nice, but I went through it in about 15 minutes, and realistically, I think it’s more of a top spot for a festival than a serious sightseeing destination. That said, for people who don’t plan to hike to the other two more interesting fortresses, this one is certainly satisfying enough.

Fantastic medieval fortress in the middle of the city, great views, awesome atmosphere! Rooftop had been turned to one of the greatest open air concert venues I have ever seen... Attended the last concert of Satriani/Vai band european tour there.
Tibor W — Google review
We bought the three-site ticket, which lets you explore Barone Fortress, St. John’s, and St. Michael’s. Each one is absolutely worth a visit if you want to dive into the fascinating history of Šibenik. My tip: start with Barone and St. John’s to get a feel for the city’s defenses, and then head up to St. Michael’s. From there, the views are stunning, and with so many restaurants nearby, it’s the perfect spot to slow down, enjoy a meal, and let the day fade out in true Dalmatian style.

I was at Roisin Murphy's concert here. The view from above is stunning. During the summer, you can attend concerts in the evening or visit the fortress during the day.

Historical landmark
St. Nicholas Fortress is a 16th-century fortress located on the small island of Ljuljevac, at the entrance to St. Anthony's Channel near Sibenik. It is part of the UNESCO World Heritage Site and was built as a defense system against Turkish attacks from the sea. The fortress offers an intriguing glimpse into its historical significance and architectural design by Venetian builder Hyeronimus di San Michaela.
Nice hike around the area, we went to the underwater tunnel, then back the other way. We couldn't get into the fort, it was closed.
M. H — Google review
Beautiful fortress built by Venetians located at the entrance to the Šibenik bay/outlet of Krka River to the Adriatic Sea. Entering the fortress is only allowed via guided boat tours during renovation works. However you can walk right towards the fortress from the south eastern side e.g. starting at St. Nicholas beach.
Jan R — Google review
Lovely area with walks to one side of the bay to the tourist centre, while the other direction takes you to a cool wooden walkway across the water to the island and the fortress

An interesting place and worth a visit for the fort and for the nice walks in the area. The disappointment with the fort is that entry is barred. There used to be a stone causeway leading from the small island, but this has washed away. However, the water is only about 300mm deep, so it's a quick and easy walk across if you don't mind wet feet. There is still scaffolding in place where you would once have been able to get into the fort through a hole in the wall, originally intended as a gun port. Sadly, this hole has been blocked up.

Barone Fortress, a 17th-century stronghold perched on a hill above Sibenik, was constructed in just two months to protect the city from an impending Ottoman invasion. Following extensive restoration in 2016, the fortress now boasts a visitor's center and interactive exhibits using augmented reality technology to immerse visitors in its historical significance. Offering panoramic views of the old town and shoreline, this less-visited gem also features tourist facilities such as a museum, cafe, and toilets.
11.50 to enter. Spend 1.50 more for pass to all three fortresses. There is a cafe serving up drinks only, which is needed after the climb up. A combination of stairs and a road. But doable for anyone. Nice views of the city.
Dan B — Google review
There is nothing to see inside. You have only the views. The ticket is 11.50eur, considering the price, It's not worth the visit as there is nothing to do more than a view. They charge on every single tourist spot in Croacia, even parks and it's very pricy. I understand that conservation is important but they go to far with tourist
Roberto — Google review
Listen up, folks – it’s a hell of a hike, but it’s totally worth it. The view is the second best (Ivanovova > Barone > Michaels), and there’s also a spot to grab a dessert, a coffee, or just cool off a bit. Kids will have fun too. That said, I still managed to walk through the entire fortress in about 10 minutes. I highly recommend bringing a bottle of water and an extra pair of legs.

Nice view of Sibenic. Very small. There is not much to see, except for the view. There is no museum or exhibition. You can do it in 10 min. There is a nice coffee bar and toilets.
Moshe S — Google review
READ CAREFULLY: I really don't understand the negative reviews. The fortress is not just about the view — which, by the way, is beautiful — but also offers a much deeper experience. If people took a moment to read, they'd realize that the ticket includes a free AR (augmented reality) experience using tablets provided on-site. These explain the history in a fun and interactive way, with lots of interesting facts. It’s a very pleasant place to visit, and there’s free parking available, which is a big plus. Tip: Get the family ticket or, for just €1.50 more, the combined ticket for all three fortresses — the other sites also offer great experiences. People should really inform themselves better before leaving bad reviews.
Capeto — Google review
Nice view from both fortresses - Saint John's and Barone. 5 minutes walking distance Parking possible ar Barone fortress. Family ticket available. Considered as "must visit" when in Šibenik.

Great place to visit if you are near Šibenik. Very nice and friendly staff, comfortable cafe just inside the place with local brewery. Don't forget to take an interactive augmented reality tour and listen to the history of the place, it's quite creative. The view from the place is amazing. You can see both the seaside and the city. Parking for the visitors is free and right near the fortress walls, but be careful driving uphill - the road is a bit stiff and narrow, some cars might be moving in the opposite direction at the same time

St. John's Fortress, also known as Tanaja, is a significant historical site in Sibenik, Croatia. Built in 1646 by locals in just 58 days to protect the city from Turkish attacks, it stands on a hill overlooking the area. The fortress was named after a medieval church dedicated to St. John that previously occupied the site for centuries. Adjacent to Barone Fortress and close to St.
Amazing view in front of the entrance. I think this fortress is the best among three fortresses (Barone, St. John's, St.Michael). I truly recommend to visit this place just before sunset. Entrance fee is 11.5 euros for adults, including entrance to Barone fortress. But you can visit three fortresses for 13 euros. There are also a large free parking lot.

“They don’t know me, son! Who’s gonna carry the boats and the logs?” – that’s what was running through my head in the last few meters. This fortress has the fewest reviews of all, yet it’s the nicest, biggest, most interesting, and has the best view. I highly recommend it to anyone who loves hikes, views, and history.

St. John's fortress was made in the 17th century and in combination with the Barone fortress repelled the Ottoman attacks on Sibenik. Historically significant and with beautiful views it's a must visit place in Sibenik. Along with St. Mihovil fortress and the Cathedral.

It is part of old Šibenik, which is a really nice town with a tangle of old narrow streets. (Original) Hezký a zvenčí velice zajímavý kostelík se čtyřmi zvony, které když se rozezvučí, má to něco do sebe. Je součástí starého Šibeniku, který je opravdu moc hezké město se spletí starých úzkých uliček.

(Translated by Google) The church is located not far from the cathedral. Today, it houses the Museum of Church Art. It has only two facades, since other buildings are adjacent to it on the other two sides. It has two bell towers. (Original) Crkva se nalazi nedaleko od katedrale. Danas se u njoj nalazi Muzej crkvene umjetnosti. Ima samo dvije fasade, budući da su s druge dvije strane na nju prislonjene druge građevine. Ima dva zvonika.

City Hall Sibenik, a striking Renaissance building located in the heart of the city, was constructed between 1533 and 1546. Its facade features columns, arches, a balustrade, and a balcony. The ground floor houses a local restaurant with an outside terrace offering stunning views of the Cathedral of St. James. This High Renaissance architectural gem is adorned with large lion heads on its facade and used to host city council sessions in its beautiful upstairs hall.
Šibenik is like, totally stunning! The history's, like, everywhere, with these awesome fortresses—St. Michael's and that UNESCO place, the Cathedral of St. James—showing off its past. The old town? It's just a maze of cute streets, perfect for wandering around. And the food? OMG, the food scene is poppin'! I had some seriously delish fresh seafood and, like, real traditional Dalmatian stuff at Konoba Centar. And the local wines? Defo try 'em! Seriously, a must-visit if you're ever in Croatia. 10/10 would recommend!"

Lovely historical building with fantastic facade, great central location, has restaurant on ground floor providing meals, drinks and snacks on the front patio outside with shade umbrellas on sunny days. Very very busy during summer peak time as its location,accross Sv Jakobs cathedral, is the focus of tourist interest. Havent made it inside, but sure there is much more to it .
Serafin S — Google review
The City Hall is located directly opposite the entrance to St. James Cathedral. The problem is that it looks more like a restaurant than a historical monument. Nevertheless, it is considered one of the most beautiful town halls in Croatia. It is decorated with 10 pillars topped by a cornice decorated with stone lions and floral ornaments. There is also a typical Renaissance porch. Stairs are adjoined on both sides. The City Hall was somewhat damaged during the Second World War, but it has been restored to its original form.

Šibenik is a historic city in Dalmatia where the river Krka flows into the Adriatic Sea. It is educational, industrial and tourist center and the third largest city in Dalmatia. In the city of Šibenik there are four fortresses, each of which has views of the city, sea and nearby islands. The fortresses are now tourist sightseeing destinations. St. Nicholas Fortress is located on the island at the entrance of Šibenik Channel. It is included in UNESCO 's World Heritage Site list. St. Michael's Fortress is in historic town centre. There ara and St. John Fortress and Barone Fortress. The Kornati archipelago, west of Šibenik, consists of 150 islands making it the densest archipelago in the Mediterranean Sea. City hall is running along one side of the square opposite the Cathedral, this 16th-century. The beautifully proportioned colonnaded loggia now houses the restaurant, and also forms the backdrop to many of the events comprising the annual Šibenik Children’s Festival.

Aquapark Dalmatia, located at Solaris Beach Resort in Sibenik, is a vibrant aquatic playground suitable for families and thrill-seekers alike. As Croatia's oldest themed waterpark, it offers over 8,000 square meters of water-filled fun. The park features an array of attractions including slides, sprays, kids' pools, a lazy river, and the cascading Aqua Rain fortress.
Went to the indoor aquapark. The place is amazing. All the floors are heated, covered with some kind of ruubber foam in the pool areas so it is not slippery. 2 level dry playroom for kids above 3yo. Restaurant and caffee. The only thing lacking inside is a swimming pool. Since there is none, people swim in the lazy river

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Give this review a thumbs up if you found it helpful 👍 Prices are not too high compared to what you usually expect in water or amusement parks – everything feels fair. There’s a great selection of food, ice creams, sunscreen and kids’ toys at the kiosks. The gym here really surprised me – it’s honestly one of the best I’ve ever seen in a water park or hotel: brand-new equipment, everything spotless, and it even smells like new. The waterslides are a lot of fun and the Lazy River is perfect for relaxing. The whole park is very clean, toilets are spotless, and hygiene is clearly a top priority. Overall, a really well-kept and enjoyable place – highly recommend!

A wonderful place for a family day out! I really enjoyed this water park, and the kids were absolutely thrilled. Everything was very clean, there were plenty of slides, and no smell of chlorine at all. The staff constantly kept the area tidy and clean. There’s convenient parking and a decent snack bar with hot dogs, fries, and burgers. A ticket for our family of four cost €140. The only small issue was finding a sunbed in the shade — not so easy later in the day. Luckily, we managed to find one without much trouble, so maybe we were just lucky. I believe if you arrive in the morning, you won’t have any problems finding a spot in the shade.
Alexander K — Google review
The price of the park is extremely high – €40 per person. On top of that, you have to pay for parking, which is also very expensive. You even need to pay for sunbeds. Food and drinks inside the park are also ridiculously overpriced. The cheapest option is a hot dog for €8 – and that’s without anything on the side. A small portion of fries with a small hamburger costs nearly €20 per person. That said, it is a beautiful park, and the pools are clean.

quite high price....but overall nice...for a whole day it's worth the money...but there are a few things that the administration of this complex should probably rectify...very few staff who speak another language besides the national languages...let's keep in mind that there are a lot of foreign tourists...I understand the notion of cleanliness but it's not good sense to go with a broom to pick up all the dust from below that settles on food placed on a counter for pick-up...

Alen V — Google review
1) This place was much, much too tame for my 12 and 15 year old girls. The slides are aimed at under tens and definitely not even for only slightly adventurous dads. The Lazy River could be better called The Stationary Canal. Their website doesn't really make that clear. If it had I wouldn't have booked. So now you know what to expect. It's why I only gave the place 3 stars. Judging by the amount of happy toddlers and small children though I can recommend it if you do have children under 10. There are indoor and outdoor slides and attractions depending on the weather and time of year. My children thought it was expensive at 40 euros/person. There are some other indoor 'wellness' and 'fitness' features that I was not interested in given I was there for my children. 2) The cheeseburger meal from the outside 'Fast Food Splash' restaurant was superb! The burger was perfectly cooked, fat and tasty and way above what I was expecting! Better than many 'proper' restaurants. Given what I got I was pleased with the price too. 3) I bought the tickets in advance online. The payment site debited my card but then said it couldn't process the payment and didn't send any email. Fortunately this was sorted in seconds on arrival by courteous staff. 4) Signs. It needs more signs to guide the day visitor. It's the only place of its type I've ever seen that doesn't have a huge colourful welcome sign at the open entrance. It's almost like they want you to be confused or uncertain! 5) When you finally get to the turnstile entrance to the waterpark they have nice yellow signs at knee height telling you which sensor/gate combination to use with your wristband entry key. However they are too low for the average adult to spot them when you are in front of the gate so you can use up your one entry with the wristband trying to open the wrong gate! I can't be the only one that stupid! 6) The place is very clean and tidy. Safety is clearly a priority. Everything is in good condition and there are plenty of staff. It wasn't very full on a weekday in mid June so I didn't really need to book online. Might be different during Croatian school holidays.

Banj Beach is a renowned pebble beach in Sibenik, offering stunning panoramic views of the city's Cathedral and four well-preserved fortresses. It has been awarded the Blue Flag for its pristine landscapes and offers various sports activities such as volleyball, kayaking, canoeing, swimming, water polo, and picigin. The nearby restaurant Petrus provides a perfect spot to enjoy Dalmatian cuisine under the sun.
Small, charming beach with breathtaking view of Šibenik ♥️Fine gravel is as soft as sand, but nothing sticks to the body or clothes which is great. Toilets are large, modern and very clean. Petrus Beach Bar is serving large variety of food and drinks. Water, since it is a narrow bay, is amazingly warm 😍 The beach is facing south. Just over the beach there is a parking dedicated for beach clients. City centre is very well reachable from this beach, too.

Type: "Prilaz tvornici 35 parking" to get to a big parking area right above the beach. It's one of most affordable ones, 5 euros for a daily ticket. Banj is only few minutes away, walking distance. The sea here is specific because its mixed with water from a river, but still good for a city refreshment and daily fun. There is a big public toilet, pretty clean and no charge, basketball and volleyball courts, outdoor gym, children water fun park and a cafe with some food options and reasonable prices (chicken tortilla and fries 10 euros, burger and fries 14 euros, beer 3 euros, coffee 2.20 euros). Important: there is almost no shade at the beach. Secure something yourself. Dogs are only allowed on the leash and not inside the sea.
Iva V — Google review
Worlds above Jadrija beach in my opinion, and easy to overlook thinking you should be heading to other islands for a beach day. There's a restaurant, so you've got clean bathrooms, changing rooms, food, coffee and water. And the American (?) member of staff is lovely and very helpful. We went in early September, and there weren't too many people there so it was perfect. No sea urchins, but water is pretty rocky. You can rent beach beds for €8-10 euros a day, which is a bit steep but they offered room to barter, especially if you're purchasing multiple things. The aqua park was €10 for an hour which I found reasonable. Though admittedly there isn't too much to do on it. But the main issue is the barnacles underneath/ on the edges. We both got cut up and ended up with legs covered in blood!

A little beach with a peaceful vibe and no crowds, about a 20-minute walk from the historic center. One thing to know before you go: the Krka River flows into the bay nearby, making the water much less salty than the sea. It caught me off guard — I had to work noticeably harder to stay afloat.

May 1st holiday was a sunny one but very, very windy so not many visitors. Gave me a chance to check out the place and wander around. Theres a restaurant, already open, kiddies play area, and for fitness buffs an exercise set up with equipment to work out on. As usual on this coast beach pebbly so rubber slip on shoes suggested. Fabulous hot sunny day and plenty of people, many swimming, water playground area set up so its time to hit the beach folks. And the views of the city are post card perfect.

Ok beach with a views of the city and some mountains, water in the bay is less salty cause river KRK falls into the sea not far from the beach. The only beach for shinenik that you can do by easy walking if you stay in the old city.

The Šibenik City Museum is housed in the medieval Rector's Palace, situated alongside the Cathedral of St. James facing the Adriatic. Established in 1925, this museum showcases artifacts and exhibits that trace Šibenik's history from prehistoric times to the present day. While it may not offer interactive displays, it provides a unique insight into the city's Illyrian and Croatian heritage, distinguishing it from neighboring cities like Split or Zadar.
The entry fee of 5€ is very fair for the experience at the Šibenik City Museum. While it’s a smaller museum, it presents its content across several levels, starting with a beautifully designed ground floor featuring a glass ceiling. The exhibition is very well-curated, allowing visitors to follow the city’s historical timeline as they make their way through the museum. Though it’s not a huge museum and the number of exhibits is limited, the arrangement is thoughtful, with everything explained clearly in both Croatian and English. There are also several multimedia and video installations that provide more in-depth details and immersive scenes from the past, closely tied to the artifacts on display. Unfortunately, some of the monitors were off during our visit, possibly because we were the only visitors at the time. One great feature is that all levels of the museum are accessible by wheelchair, although I did wonder how a wheelchair user would navigate the stairs at the entrance, as I didn’t notice a ramp or lift. Overall, it’s a very enjoyable museum experience, and I highly recommend it for anyone interested in the history of Šibenik.

We passed the museum on our way to the church. Two big canons graced the frontage with stoneworks on the lawn.. We didn't go in ...as the reviews were contradictory...but aircon not working means we made a correct decision on a superhot day in July . Maybe next time we will go in.

One of the better museums I have been to, it has multiple floors that describe the history and the culture of Šibenik. It has everything from pottery to cannon and swords exhibited inside, the temperature is just right. There is a lot of smart TVs where you can watch films about certain topics. I 100% recommend it, you don't want to miss this beautiful museum! Children under 15 go for free

So much thought and care was put into what is on display regarding the city's long turbulent history from ceramics, jewelry, funerary plaques, parts of buildings to old documents, invention drawings, weapons etc And everything is well described in English.

The museum is small but has a nice exhibit. It would have been lovely to take some time to look at these but the A/C was not turned on even tho it was the middle of summer. It was over 30 degrees outside and the sun was shining. It was way too hot und stuffy to enjoy any of the exhibit. Getting out of the the museum was a relief cuz it was way cooler outsde than inside. It's quite a shame. We also paid 5€ per Person. It would have been nice to let ppl know that the A/C isn't turned on. I nearly fainted cuz it was so hot and stuffy.

Nestled in the heart of Sibenik, the Museum of St Francis offers a captivating glimpse into centuries of history and art. Housed within a stunning 13th-century monastery, this museum is not just about its impressive architecture; it also boasts one of Croatia's most significant libraries. Among its treasures is the Sibenska molitva, an early Croatian book written in Latin script that highlights the region's rich literary heritage.

It is extremely difficult to get into this museum. You cannot simply walk here unless you booked and appointment. To visit the monastery library you will need to submit a special request. You may not enter the museum building with backpacks, food or drinks, etc. You may not enter unless your shoulders and knees are covered (good luck with that in summer Sibenik). Photo and video are not permitted. At least, they have a nice country yard which can be visited free of charge.

(Translated by Google) Well kept place! No one can enter... A very rude woman pushes everyone away from the entrance to the courtyard. If you have shorts or a skirt above the knee and visible shoulders, go your way! You get set on fire if you stay in the yard for more than 30 seconds. What is the point of opening a museum where no one can enter in summer?? It’s ridiculous no one dresses like this with 35°C in Sibenik 😡 If you want to have visitors be smart, lend scarves to put on the shoulders like in the cathedral. As for the obligation to wear leggings, ask Cristina Cordula what she thinks 😉 (Original) Endroit bien gardé ! Personne ne peut entrer... Une femme très malpolie repousse tout le monde dès l'entrée de la cour. Si vous avez un short ou une jupe au dessus du genou et les épaules visibles passez votre chemin !

C'est ridicule personne ne s'habille de cette manière avec 35°C à Sibenik 😡 Si vous voulez avoir des visiteurs soyez intelligents, prêtez des foulards à mettre sur les epaules comme à la cathédrale.

Saint James’ Cathedral is a remarkable Gothic-Renaissance structure located in the heart of Sibenik's old town.

Piotr M — Google review
Rising from the historic heart of Šibenik, the Cathedral of St. James is more than just a magnificent structure; it is a living testament to human faith, ingenuity, and spirit. This UNESCO World Heritage site is a sublime fusion of Gothic and Renaissance styles, a unique architectural masterpiece that tells a story not just of stone and mortar, but of the souls who shaped it. Crafted entirely from local limestone and marble, the cathedral stands as a tribute to the master builders who, across more than a century, meticulously brought their vision to life. Its most celebrated feature, the frieze of 71 sculpted human faces, each one unique, looks down upon the city with a quiet dignity. These are not merely decorative elements; they are the faces of the people—the merchants, the sailors, the artisans—who lived and breathed in this city, forever immortalized in stone. Each face seems to hold a secret, a memory, a silent prayer echoing through the ages. Inside, the light filters through the magnificent rose window, illuminating the intricate carvings and the hushed sanctity of the space. The absence of traditional building materials like wood or brick gives the interior a pure, almost ethereal quality. It is a space where the past feels palpable, where every arch and every column seems to whisper the names of those who stood there before, seeking solace, celebrating joy, and finding strength. The Cathedral of St. James is not just an architectural marvel; it is the spiritual and cultural anchor of Šibenik. To stand before it is to feel a connection to generations past, to appreciate the profound power of art, and to be reminded that the most enduring legacies are those built not just with hands, but with heart. It is a monument that speaks a universal language of beauty and devotion, a timeless beacon for all who seek inspiration.

One of the cathedrals that is worth the entrance fee (payable in cash). Though small, the baptistery is quite impressive. Outside the cathedral also holds many interesting details to look at. Take the brochure once inside the cathedral to read. Is well laid out information. The cathedral ticket comes with a free visit to Civitas Sacra museum (can skip unless you need find a place to escape the sun).

I visited on a weekday to avoid the larger crowds. The cathedral is one of the most significant and stunning architectural landmarks in Croatia. Since I wasn’t wearing the appropriate clothing (shorts), I chose not to enter out of respect, so I was only able to admire its exterior. Even so, the façade was breathtaking, and I look forward to returning someday to experience the interior as well. For photography enthusiasts, this spot is truly postcard-worthy.

The must see in the cathedral is the small baptistery with carved ceiling. The 7€ entrance fee does also include the museum in a separate location. Unfortunately I didn’t have time to visit, so the fee is quite high. They only take cash too. They do provide a brochure in multiple languages so that you can do a self-guided tour, which is much better than many other cathedrals.

Nestled on a small island at the entrance of St. Anthony Channel, St. Nicholas Fortress is a stunning example of 16th-century military architecture, built to safeguard the city from maritime threats. Accessible only by boat, this secluded fortress offers an escape into history and breathtaking views of the surrounding landscapes. While exploring its exterior is more captivating than venturing inside, it remains a must-see for anyone visiting Šibenik.
Nice hike around the area, we went to the underwater tunnel, then back the other way. We couldn't get into the fort, it was closed.

Beautiful fortress built by Venetians located at the entrance to the Šibenik bay/outlet of Krka River to the Adriatic Sea.

Terike — Google review
An interesting place and worth a visit for the fort and for the nice walks in the area. The disappointment with the fort is that entry is barred. There used to be a stone causeway leading from the small island, but this has washed away. However, the water is only about 300mm deep, so it's a quick and easy walk across if you don't mind wet feet. There is still scaffolding in place where you would once have been able to get into the fort through a hole in the wall, originally intended as a gun port. Sadly, this hole has been blocked up.

Tries to scam you out of your deposit and delivers the boat with a broken toilet. When we got the boat, it seemed mostly fine but after 2 days, the toilet clogged up and the boat smelled like excrement for the rest of the journey. Not pleasant. After some inspection we found the waste tank to be completely full, which clearly shows they didn't clean it out before letting it to us. Disgusting. They even tried to charge us 100 euros for cleaning out the shit they left on board. When returning we informed them about a window that we broke by accident. They jumped on this opportunity to scam us out of the deposit by claiming we broke multiple windows (which weren't even broken and definitely haven't been damaged by us). When we protested against this, they started insulting us. We will be taking legal action against these money-grubbers. Also, some of the life vests were broken, which is totally irresponsible. If you've already booked with them, I highly recommend taking pictures of EVERYTHING before leaving the harbour (including the toilet waste tanks), as they will lie to you and claim they have not made any pictures beforehand.

Croatia is beautiful, but charter a yacht somewhere else! We broke one window and were okay with paying for it, but this company (manager) tried to scam us into paying for much more and called us "gypsies"... We will be taking legal action. After two days we had an issue with one of the toilets on board, which made it impossible to flush. The holding tank was on really high pressure, as was the outflow pipe, even though the outflow valve (they did not show us where it was before, we had to google it) had been open the entire time. This means the company did not check or empty this holding tank before our charter. Called the company going out of sibenik, they told us to come to Sibenik Marina, where they would have somebody to guide us. On arrival there was no one, so we docked at the head of the pier to wait. The harbor master showed up 4 times to ask, and eventually warned us that he would charge if they took longer than an hour. The repair took longer than an hour, so we were made to pay, and Angelina refused to reimburse us afterwards. They also added the repair costs to our charter, while the issue was clearly not our fault. "We have never seen a clog this bad", said the technical staff, which cannot be caused by two days of regular use... After the fix, which involved having the toilet and neighboring hallway in 5cm deep of sewage & them dumping it in the harbor, they cleaned the boat with some dish soap, and went on their way. The neighboring bedroom was mine, and it was completely unusable due to the strong sewage smell, even after heavy air freshener (which the technical staff kindly left behind for us). I was forced to sleep outside, and the next day I cleaned it three times with strong soap & air freshener. Then it was barely usable. Afterwards, the company tries to charge us the cleaning costs as well. They are also keeping our deposit to pay for "four broken windows", even though there was only 1 broken window and we have photos to prove it. They refused to show us the photos they made. When we so much as mentioned the idea of them reimbursing us for the harbor docking cost, the manager got outrageously angry, and started calling some of us "gypsies". If you've already booked a charter here, photograph EVERYTHING, inside and out. If they think you're vulnerable, they will try to charge you for everything, even if it is clearly their fault (as their own employees admitted).

They charged 550 eur because they destroyed the furling spiral of the main sail during reparation. We didn't touch it when it sticked! When they removed the spiral, the bearing didn't even have any ball inside. Nor grease as well. So they skipped the maintenance and we were the unlucky guys where the unit stucked. So we had to pay the new part. Disgusting.

Both the main boat engine and the dinghy engine broke down and it took two days to repair them. As a result, we had to change our plans, stay longer in one place, and were unable to use the dinghy at all. Although this wasn’t our fault, the company refused to offer any kind of discount or compensation.
Barbara M — Google review
550 EUR charge was applied afterwards - not fair Absolutely not recommended. Please read the details below: During the charter, the mainsail furling rope became stuck between the inner furling spiral and the mast. We immediately contacted Angelinas maintenance team and as instructed, attempted to resolve it by opening and closing the main sail by hand. When this failed, we left the sail partially open and secured it to the mast to avoid damage of the sail or the furling system. Upon return to the Marina, Angelina's maintenance team attempted to free the stuck furling rope by winching it, which should not be done as it places excessive strain on the system, especially on the furling spiral. The winching was so powerful that the furling rope snapped! After the disassembly of the furling system we were informed that the furling spiral is damaged. Despite the fact that the damage occurred during this intervention we were charged for the repair and was not given the opportunity by the base manager to document the incident and chain of events in a joint written report.

The hiking trail to reach it provides an exhilarating experience with some steep sections and opportunities for relaxation by the water. The lookout is easily accessible and rewards visitors with stunning vistas that include the Cathedral and castle in Sibenik.
Really nice trail. A lot of small spots to take a bath of relax in the shadow by the water. The hills up the two lookout spots are a bit steep and the stones may be slippery. Bicycles must be pushed at the steepest hills. It’s possible to lock your bikes at near the stairs to the cave.

(Translated by Google) This monument depicts Peter Krzesimir IV, the ruler of the Kingdom of Croatians, who reigned in the years 1058 -1074 and is considered the greatest ruler of his time reigning in Croatia. If he was like that, he deserves this monument😀👍 (Original) Pomnik ten przedstawia Piotra Krzesimira IV władcę Królestwa Chorwatów który panował w latach 1058 -1074 uchodzi za największego władcę swoich lat panującego w Chorwacji. Skoro takim był należy mu się ten pomnik😀👍
