From the heart of Dalmatia, great wines are made⚓ Enjoy and taste authentic and local wines of Dalmatia at the family-owned Baraka Winery with beautiful views of our vineyards and olive orchards, located near the basilica from the 6th century. Start your wine experience by meeting the winemaker and tour the winery, new barrique aging cellar, and learn about the winemaking process and tradition. Choose a few different tasting menus of wines made from the estate-grown grapes or our single-vineyard selections along with locally produced cheese, estate olives, and extra virgin olive oils. With direct access from the local road to Jadrija, and just 0,5km from the main road Šibenik-Vodice we are very easy to reach and open for tasting from 1130 until 1800. Reservation is advised.
Filip gave us a warm welcome in his wine tasting room, very nicely decorated. We were lucky enough to be the only ones to be there on the day and have a private session and discussion with him. Such a genuinely passionate person, great stories and explanations about his experiments with his different wines. We recommend the wine tasting with cheeses and olive oil, they definitely match very well together with the amazing wines. We came by bike from Vodice and were very happy with the trip, thank you Filip and for everyone wondering, this is definitely a place worth visiting in the area!

In old town Sibenik, small intime atmospher wich reflects the story of Sibenik. Don't miss evening enjoying live music with our offer of beer,local wine, and especily list of cocktails. Besides well known classics we will suprise you with original recepies, signed by the owners of Rebeus bar.
What a lovely find upon wandering the streets of Sibenik! A gorgeous, cosy little space with outdoor seating area under umbrellas. Surrounding area is relatively quiet so makes this space a good spot for drinks and chat. Cocktails were delicious, our barman/waiter Kreshe (spelling could be wrong!) is an absolute legend - warm, friendly and energetic, remembering our orders every time we popped in (which was pretty much every other night of our stay!). We were made to feel welcome straight away. Great playlist too! I would recommend Rebus bar to anyone visiting Sibenik!

One of the best small museums we visited in all of Croatia, they are really tourist friendly. Laid out on multi levels inside the old palace, you will go through a great time travel of the area with excellent explanations in English and modern layouts of exhibits. Easy to stroll, plenty of space, great for pictures, a model for other museums in the country. Not expensive for the quality of the content. I thought it would take an hour to cover, but closer to two hours if you want to see and read everything. Well-worth the visit.

The interpretation Centre of the St. James Cathedral ''Civitas Sacra'', summarizes the rich history of the Sibenik Diocese in one place, and tells visitors the story about specific manner in which Sibenik's cathedral was constructed. Components of the Civitas Sacra Centre: - Interpretive section on three levels - Multimedia hall - Gallery for temporary exhibitions - Souvenir shop - Restaurant
This is a great museum that is included with the tour price for the church. Not sure why every person that sees the church does not go here too, they should definitely encourage visitors to come here even before the church tour. Exhibition pieces describe the history of Sibenik and the construction of the church very well. GREAT EXPERIENCE

The Cathedral of St James in Sibenik is a superb example of Gothic-Renaissance architecture, listed as a UNESCO World Heritage site in 2000. The building was begun 1431 and later supervised by Dalmatian master-builder Juraj Dalmatinac, in the Gothic Flamboyant style. Of particular note is his exterior frieze of 71 sculpted life-sized heads, each unique. From 1473 construction was under Nikola Firentinac in Tuscan Renaissance style, completed in 1536. The western facade has a Gothic portal framed by carved saints and surmounted by two rose windows. The Lions' Portal in the north facade features carvings of Adam and Eve and the apostles Peter and Paul, with bronze reliefs of scenes from the Old Testament. The interior is as magnificent as the exterior: the three-aisled nave has a double row of columns with Gothic capitals and arches, with a decorative frieze above and an outstanding gallery balustrade. High above the nave rose windows in an intricate shell and floral design are superb. The main alter is richly decorated and lit from a half-domed apse. Side altars are Baroque dating from the 17th and 18th centuries. The baptistery under the south apse contains exquisitely carved ceiling and font supported by three angels by Dalmatinac in the Gothic-Renaissance style. Brochures in several language describe the many artworks and architectural features inside the church. The cathedral is open from 9.30am-6.30pm, with an entry fee of 20 kuna (children free).

The church of "Uspenie Bogomatere" was built on the location where the Templars lived in the 12th century. It is a Baroque building from the 17th - 18th century. Until the beginning of the 19th century it was the Catholic Church of Holy Salvation, and it belonged to the women's Benedictine monastery. In 1810, by Napoleon's decision, the church was surrendered to the Orthodox episcope Bendedikt Kraljevic. The church is accented with a Baroque bell tower from the beginning of the 18th century.

The church of St. Barbara is a monument of gothic architecture. It is a single-naved church. The building of the church started at about 1400. Above the main entrance there is a gothic niche with a sculpture of St. Nicholas, the work of the Italian artist Bonino from Milan. Today there is a little museum in the church of St. Barbara, housing some very important art works from the period between the 14th and the 17th century.
