History

Vodice was first mentioned in the 15th century. Vodice was once a strong, fortified city which offered protection to its people against the Turks. Čorić tower - is one of the sights from this period.

Čorić tower or Čoricevtoranj built by the Fondra family in 1646. The living spaces and defense facilities were fortified by high defense walls since the tower was built during tumultuous times. The stone which it was built with was brought from Brač island. Today, the courtyard of Čorić tower is used as an open-air movie theater during summertime, however the tower is closed to visitors.

The Church of St. Cross or Crkva Sv. Križa is a gothic church built in 1421. It was consecrated to St. Cross and it also served as a parish church. The art exhibitions take place there during summer.

The Parish Church of St. Cross with a Bell Tower or Župnacrkva Sv. Križa so zvonikom, was built on foundations of an old baroque chapel. The church is a work of Sibenik baroque builder Ivan Skoko. The walls have decorated windows from this period and there is a beautiful baroque altar dedicated to St. Cross. The Bell Tower was built by Dubrovnik builder Vicko Macanovič. It took him 20 years to build. The Bell Tower has 2 loggias, there are 2 big windows in the bottom loggia and 3 smaller once in the top loggia.

The church of St. Ilije the Prophet or Crkva Sv. Ilije Proroka is a church built in 1298 by people of Pišča. In 1493, it was dedicated to St. Ilije the Prophet. There is a wall built around the church and it is supposed to have had a cemetery nearby. Today, the only one mass takes place in the church during a year on 20 August.

Individual catering

For those who want to take care of their own food, we recommend to try regional food, it isn´t true anymore that it is more convenient to buy food at home and bring it to Croatia. The prices are the same. Also, the opinion: "we don´t know croatian food so let´s go to Lidl instead" - doesn ´t stand a chance, just give it a try - the food is very good and it doesn´t contain so much additives and preservatives (they haven´t let many international brands in their market).

Breakfast: for example: while taking a walk you will find out that bakeries are on every corner. We recommend " Slanač" - can be found only in Croatia, a favourite pastry of all tourists (the sweet pastry with cheese on top).

Delicious croatian butter, cream spreads, yoghurt drinks or we also recommend fig or rosehip jam. Really delicious.

Lunch: mostly, you can find any kind of food at the beach, in buffets where frenchfries are served, baked baguettes, pancakes, hot dogs (coffee, beer, water), or not far (200 m to the city) where you can buy any meals desired.

You can cook your meals yourselves or try croatian traditional meals.

Dinner: we definitely recommend grilling or barbecue for dinner, it is an essential activity on holiday. Grilled pleskavica or Cevapi with ajvar and vegetables – recommended. You can find them in every store ready to be put on your grill. Ajvar is a croatian speciality which goes very well with any meat.

If you long for fresh fish, you can go to a local market and buy fish, fruit or vegetables there. We just suggest to put some salt and butter on the fish, wrap it up in the foil and put it on the grill in the evening – white wine is recommended, of course.

Catering in the hotel

If you want to check out the hotel food, for more information, please write to reservations@rivijera.hr. Breakfast - 7€ and Lunch / Dinner - 12€.

Another option is eating in restaurants, there are lots of them in the area, you can try lunch menu for only 35 KN / 5€. A fresh salad is included and a big main meal is always cooked fresh.
