Touring Holidays On The Dalmatian Coast

One of the must-see sights in Sibenik is the magnificent Cathedral of St. James, often known as St. Jacob. A UNESCO Heritage Site and is believed to be the world’s largest church built entirely from stone without wooden supports or structure. Construction began in 1431 and was not completed until 1536.

We’ll enjoy a boat trip to Zlarin Island or ‘Golden Island’, which is renowned for the unspoilt beauty of its beaches, coves and green pine forests. We’ll also learn more about its Coral harvesting industry, where they create beautiful jewellery and ornaments.

The smallest island in Sibenik archipelago and one of the best places to experience authentic Dalmatian culture. The island is also known for its 16th Century Franciscan church Monastery, sponge industry and is a popular spot for diving.

On our Dalmatian Coast holidays, we’ll take a guided tour of this fascinating medieval town with its narrow lanes, stone houses and historic sights. One of the top attractions in Trogir is the Cathedral of St Lawrence, which took so long to be built that it demonstrates various architectural styles that were popular throughout the centuries. We’ll also see the Cipiko Palaces, once home to local nobility in the 15th century and its city walls.

Split is Croatia’s second largest city and offers the perfect blend of historic sites and lively atmosphere. We’ll take a walking tour and see the main highlights of Split, including Diocletian’s Palace which is in the heart of the old town and visit St. Domnius Cathedral. This was originally built as a mausoleum for the Roman Emperor Diocletian, but was later converted to a Catholic cathedral, which is now considered the oldest in the world.
