Inhabited from the ancient times due to the source of potable water, Baška Voda lies in the foothills of the magnificent Biokovo Mountain. Once a village of farmers and fishermen, and now a modern tourist location, on several occasions it won the prestigious Blue Flower award, given to the most organized tourist resorts on the Croatian coast. If this is not enough recommendations, please read the following text and discover what this unique combination of sea and mountains, spiced with a grain of Dalmatian temperament and tons of cordial hospitality, has to offer.
Baška Voda is proud of 10 hotels that will meet the most refined requirements, high quality private accommodation facilities and camps. Refreshment in the crystal clear waters and relaxing colors of the Mediterranean flora are the strongest advantages of this area – we understand the old saying that even a dying man could come back to life here. To those interested in sightseeing there is a lot to recommend: rich museum collections, galleries with paintings on canvas and glass, Malacological Museum with its wondrous collection of shells from all over the world; picturesque churches– 18th century Late Baroque Church of St. Lawrence, Neo-Romanesque Church of St. Nicholas with its valuable works of art, the Church of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary and St. Roko in the nearbyvillage of Bast, and many monuments made of stone and brass (e.g. the statue of a local patron saint, St. Nicholas).
And when you get tired of sightseeing, go to one of the numerous restaurants and treat yourself with some of the local specialties – a grouper fish stew, boiled frogfish, the Biokovo baking lid or the Baška Voda ravioli. Your satisfaction will undoubtedly be complete!
