Region
The Dalmatian coast is a veritable treasure trove of stunning landscapes and historic towns, and Omis, situated halfway between the famous port city of Split and the energetic town of Maksarka, is no exception. With its rich history, scenic backdrop, and a plethora of attractions, Omis stands out as a unique and captivating destination for those seeking to explore the charm of Croatia. The town's history is deeply intertwined with its dramatic geographical setting, which is dominated by the imposing Cetina River Canyon and the Mosor Mountain Range.
The old town of Omis, with its narrow cobblestone streets and stone houses, is a place where history and culture converge. It’s a charming place to explore on foot and soak up the local way of life. There are a number of historic churches that you’ll come across while exploring - the Church of St. Michael, the Church of St. Peter, and the Church of St. Rocco, which all showcase intricate architectural details and a sense of reverence. The old town is also home to an abundance of restaurants, cafes, and local shops, it’s an excellent spot to savour authentic Croatian dishes and find unique souvenirs.
One of the most prominent historical attractions in the town is the Mirabella Fortress, often called Peovica. Perched high on a rocky outcrop, this fortress was built during the 13th century and was used as a hideout by the notorious Omis pirates who terrorised the Adriatic Sea. Today, visitors can climb up the steep path to the fortress and enjoy panoramic views of the town, the coast, and the surrounding landscapes.
Omis boasts a pristine stretch of coastline with a variety of beaches, each catering to different tastes. One of the most popular is the sandy beach at the mouth of the Cetina River, offering calm waters perfect for swimming and sunbathing. Adventurous spirits may prefer the pebbly beach of Brzet, known for its perfect conditions for windsurfing and kitesurfing. Just a short drive from Omis, there's the small village of Stanici, which is renowned for its unspoiled beaches and crystal-clear waters. It's a serene place to relax and escape the crowds often found in more touristy locations.
The Cetina River is a defining feature of Omis, and one of the most exhilarating activities here is to take a rafting excursion along its emerald waters. The river cuts through the impressive Cetina Canyon, creating a thrilling white-water rafting experience that appeals to adventure seekers and nature lovers alike. The journey offers panoramic views of the rugged cliffs, lush forests, and the charming villages that dot the landscape.
The nearby Biokovo Nature Park is an outstanding natural attraction. The Biokovo Mountain Range, part of the Dinaric Alps, offers incredible hiking opportunities, with well-marked trails leading to panoramic viewpoints where you can marvel at the Adriatic Sea and the islands scattered along the coast. The juxtaposition of the rugged mountain terrain and the azure waters is simply stunning and will leave a lasting impression.
The history, natural beauty, and cultural vitality of Omis combine to create a destination that is rich in character and charm. Whether you're seeking adventure on the Cetina River, exploring the medieval fortresses, or simply savouring the local cuisine, Omis has something to offer every traveller who ventures to this utterly enchanting corner of the Dalmatian coast.
Kids
Best Suited For: All AgesThe villa caters fantastically well for families with children of all ages.
The games room is a particularly great feature, its full of toys for younger children to relish, but also offers gaming consoles and table football for those a little older. In the basement, a pool table makes for the perfect opportunity for a little gentle family competition. The pool room is also a little private space for any older children to escape for a little fun away from the family. Not forgetting the private pool, mixed with some inflatables there is endless amounts of fun to be had! When the children are all worn out, they can curl up on the sofa and enjoy the television, or maybe even help with the barbecue outside, always a family favourite!
Omis even boasts its very own pirate festival! For a whole week every August the town gathers to celebrate its pirate history, with live re-enactments, street artists and lots of storytelling. It’s an epic way to occupy the children as they can learn all about the history of the town whilst enjoying the lively atmosphere and thrilling battles.
There is a plethora of fun activities both locally and throughout Dalmatia. From Omis you can book various water adrenaline experiences such as rafting and canyoning, or perhaps just organise a gentle paddle along the river. Guests can also take a plethora of cycle and walking routes both locally and further inland. There are amazing organised treks that pass through the rugged mountains and peaceful pine forests, just be sure to ask at the local tourist office for some recommendations.
Taking the family to the Krka national park makes for an amazing day out. Bring a picnic to enjoy around the stunning Skradinski waterfalls then jump in with the kids for a little water fight and swim. Before heading home, take a boat trip to the Visovac monastery.
