About Vodice
Vodice is a resort town of about 8,600 people in a wide bay in Šibenik-Knin County. It was a village and trade crossroads until tourism took over in the second half of the 20th century. Our homes sit in and around the town, mostly houses and apartments for around five with two bedrooms, and many have a private pool or garden; nearly all have air conditioning. Beaches in town include the Blue Beach, with a shallow sea and natural shade, a pebble beach in the centre aimed at dog owners, and Hexagon on the Punta peninsula. Evenings in summer run to the CMC pop festival in June and Wednesday klapa concerts, the traditional Dalmatian singing.
