Stationed between the cities of Šibenik and Trogir, the coastal spirit felt throughout the town of Primošten is magical.  

Rocky coasts encompass the beauty of this Croatian village, where never-ending beaches surround the perimeter and history embeds itself beneath every paving stone.  

With a population of less than 3,000, Primošten’s Mediterranean atmosphere and remote nature are enticing.  

Located at the highest point of the peninsula, the Church of St. George is a monumental structure whose white stone exterior dates back to 1760.  

Primošten is often named the city of beaches as it is surrounded by pebbles, ports, secluded swimming, golden shores, and turquoise waters. Throughout the summer months, these beautiful beaches make for a serene holiday to sunbathe and enjoy the intoxicating spirit of the Adriatic Sea.  

Folklore, gastronomy, and art festivals will also enrich your trip, whilst traditions such as klapa singing and maritime customs bring the town to life. Alternatively, meander to a quaint café or walk up to one of the town’s viewpoints for a peaceful vista of the surrounding beauty.  

The community spirit is compelling across this European wonder, where everyone knows each other. Find a cosy corner in an atmospheric restaurant or venture the narrow, cobbled paths to meet the locals. Across the village, time seems to stop whilst you become engulfed in its history and culture.   

To witness Primošten’s beauty from a bird’s-eye view, look out from the statue of Our Lady of Loreto for a breathtaking panorama of the peninsula.  

Primošten presents the perfect compromise between a seaside village and a city break, so don’t miss an opportunity to experience unforgettable views, immersive culture, nostalgic old towns, delicious delicacies, and a home away from home. Croatia is blessed to house this wonderful peninsula on the Adriatic coast.
