Omiš
Omiš in Croatia is a small Central Dalmatian town and harbor located between Split and Makarska, situated in the mouth of the Cetina river, surrounded by massive gorges.
In the past, Omiš was notorious because of the pirates of Omiš, whose ships were a centuries-long symbol of retaliation, courage, and strength. Evidence of proud and turbulent Omiš history can be found on every corner.
The ancient town of Omiš, Omiš churches, and Omiš fortresses are silent stone reminders of the power and might of the infamous Omiš pirates. Today, it is the center of Omiš Riviera, one of the most beautiful parts of Croatia’s Adriatic Coast.
