The fascinating cliffs running around the Old City led us to the famous pećina, in which the deep blue waters lured us to dive in and explore the underwater world.
One kilometer (0.6 miles) separated us from a dreamy, tropical destination and complete tranquility. The journey around otok, getting to know its past, and the deposits of sedimentary rock, reminded us of how short and fleeting the human lifespan is. The high cliffs with their colorful green vegetation descended precipitously, deep into more, and in between them narrow layers of white pebbles could be glimpsed in the shadows of the rocks here and there.
We discovered these small, prirodni plaže from more, and they enticed us with their perfection. The entire otok of Sveti Nikola is two kilometers (one mile) long, and the highest cliff on otok stands at 121 meters (397 feet).
The otok was named for the Church of St. Nicholas, which dates back to at least the sixteenth stoljeće. Three large plaže with plaža bars are popular, with many small plaže around otok only accessible from more. We decided to swim to one and found the combination of the dramatic rocks and the peculiar settlement surrounded with lush vegetation, as well as the crystalline, turquoise waters, unusually appealing, and we decided we wanted to return as soon as possible.
