Primošten

Primošten, Croatia, is a hidden gem nestled along the Adriatic coast. Let me share some captivating details about this picturesque town:
Historic Old Town: Primošten’s old town is perched on a peninsula that was originally an island. The island’s teardrop shape looks barely connected to the mainland. As you approach Primošten, you’ll see the Church of St. George atop the hill-a sight to behold! 🏰
Beaches: Primošten boasts stunning beaches. Mala Raduča Beach, in particular, has been recognized as one of Croatia’s top 10 beaches. Crystal-clear waters and golden sands await! 🌊☀️
Fascinating History: About five centuries ago, residents fled from the Turks and settled on the nearby island of Gola Glava. They built a wooden bridge, which they raised during times of danger. Hence, the town’s name: Primošten, meaning “bridged over.” 🌉
Our Lady of Loretto: Primošten is home to one of the world’s tallest statues of the Virgin Mary. The 17-meter-high monument, Our Lady of Loretto, is said to be visible from the Italian coast. A visit here is a must! 🙏
Charming Mix: Primošten blends historical architecture with beautiful beaches. Velika Raduča Beach and the islet of Smokvica offer idyllic spots to soak up the sun. 🏖️
Whether you’re exploring the stone houses, dining at local restaurants, or simply enjoying the coastal breeze, Primošten promises an unforgettable experience. 🇭🇷✨
