Primošten is a magical coastal town on the Dalmatian peninsula, whose roots can be traced back to the 16th century, when residents fled the Ottoman threat and built a fortified settlement on a small peninsula. Today, this town is known for its crystal-clear sea, beautiful vineyards, and a unique old core that seems to float above the Adriatic. Visit it for its authentic Mediterranean atmosphere, excellent Babić wine, and breathtaking sunsets.

A compact peninsula with stone houses, narrow cobblestone streets, and the Church of St. George atop a small hill, it was once a true island connected to the mainland only in the 16th century. A walk through the old town takes just about twenty minutes, yet every street offers views of the sea on both sides. The Church of St. George dates from the 15th century and dominates the town's skyline.
A 15th-century parish church at the top of the peninsula, surrounded by an old cemetery and olive groves, offering a panoramic view of the Šibenik archipelago and the surrounding islands. The church tower is visible from the sea and serves as a recognizable symbol of Primošten. Access is via a short climb up cobblestone steps through the old town.
On the slopes three kilometers south of Primošten lies Bucavac Veliki — eighteen hectares of vineyards divided into fifty-six plots, locally known as vlačice. The stone extracted from the ground is stacked into dry-stone walls along the boundaries, creating a regular lace-like grid visible from the road. The indigenous babić variety is cultivated here, producing its finest wines in the karst soil of the Primošten area. The vineyards have been on the UNESCO Tentative List of World Heritage Sites since 2007.
A small group boat circles around the old town peninsula, passes by a vineyard growing directly by the sea, and docks in the Kremik cove for swimming.
