Vodice
The city that never sleeps – a center of fun, beautiful beaches, and inexhaustible Dalmatian energy.
Why visit Vodice?
Vodice is one of the liveliest and most popular tourist destinations on the Adriatic, situated in a wide bay surrounded by numerous islands. Unlike some quieter Dalmatian spots, Vodice pulses with energy 24 hours a day – from crowded beaches with all possible amenities to famous clubs hosting world-class DJs. Yet, Vodice has also kept its hospitable face with an old core and numerous taverns serving top-quality local food.
Plava Plaža and Adrenaline Fun
The heart of summer fun in Vodice is PLAVA PLAŽA (Blue Beach), a spacious bay with shallow water ideal for children, but also numerous bars for adults. Here you can find everything from jet ski rentals to aquaparks, while the shade of the pine forest offers salvation during the hottest part of the day. For nightlife lovers, the famous HACIENDA club located in the city hinterland has for decades been synonymous with the best party experience in Dalmatia, attracting visitors from across the region.
Prvić Island and Okit Viewpoint
If you want to escape the crowds, hop on a local boat and in 15 minutes you're on PRVIĆ ISLAND, where time seems to have stood still – no cars, just stone, silence, and crystal-clear sea. INSIDER TIP: Climb Okit hill above Vodice where the beautiful modern Church of Our Lady of Carmel is located. This spot offers the best view of the entire Šibenik Riviera and the Kornati archipelago, especially at dusk. Vodice's gastronomic scene is diverse – from quick bites on the waterfront to family taverns in the interior serving the best lamb and prosciutto, accompanied by a mandatory sip of local red wine.

They haven't. The real Dubrovnik runs parallel to the tourist version, quieter, cheaper, and considerably more interesting. Here's where locals actually go.
