Living in Vodice
Vodice is a busy seaside town about 12 km north-west of Šibenik. In summer it is one of the most popular places on the riviera, with a long promenade, beaches, cafés and the ACI marina. Out of season it is a working town with shops, schools and a health centre, so it suits both holiday owners and people who live here all year.
The ferry and boats from Vodice reach the islands of Prvić and Tijat, and the Kornati islands are a popular day trip from the harbour.
