Omiš is a charming town situated in the very heart of the Central Dalmatia. It is located at the foothills of Mosor and Biokovo mountains, which are separated by Cetina River canyon. Its rich and interesting history is connected with its inhabitants, who due to the town’s strategic location, started getting involved with robbing ships, becoming fearsome pirates across the Mediterranean Sea. The two fortresses, Fortica and Mirabella, situated above the neighbouring hills, served as observation posts. Today, they proudly hover above the city and they remind us of its turbulent history. The narrow streets with stone-made houses, churches, palaces with cafés and restaurants as well as shops with colourful souvenirs add charm to this town’s atmosphere. Due to its interesting history, great location and beautiful beaches, the town is very popular for foreign tourists. After the sightseeing, we will make our way onto the panoramic cruise along Cetina River canyon, which is said to be one of the most beautiful Croatian canyons.
Cetina is the biggest river of the Central Dalmatia. The river is almost 105 km long. It originates from the Dynaric Alps, at a height of 385 km. During the cruise, we will have the opportunity to admire the untouched beauty of nature. At the end of our cruise, we will be served with a mini tasting experience of local products. We will taste soparnik – a pancake filled with mangold, garlic, and onion, which is declared to be an intangible cultural heritage of Croatia and fritters – mini doughnuts fried by housewives for centuries, particularly near Christmas time. The taste of these delicacies will be accompanied with a glass of local wine.
The Programme includes:
– Visiting Omiš town with a local guide.
– Cetina river cruise.
– Tasting experience at a local restaurant at the riverbank; soparnik, fritters, a glass of wine
