At the foot of Mt. Biokovo, at the edge of the warm and crystal
clear Adriatic Sea, you'll find Baska Voda. Once a farming and
fishing town, this idyllic spot is now a modern tourist attraction
on the Makarska Riviera in the heart of Dalmatia.
Baska Voda, Basko Polje, and the surrounding villages of
Topici, Bast, Krvavica, Bratus and Promajna form a kaleidoscope
of hospitality, tradition, modern life and a preserved environment.
Baska Voda is not only sun, transparent sea and beautiful
beaches amidst pine woods and fresh mountain air. Besides
the wonderful scenery you will find accommodation and facilities
of the highest quality: food, sport, recreation and historical
sites - excavations of remains dating back to the 1st - 7th
centuries AD, the churches of St. Lawrence (1750) and St.
Nicholas (1889), fine examples of Dalmatian rural architecture,
ethnographic and malacogical museums.
Crystal clear and warm sea, well preserved natural environment
and magnificent geographical position, in the heart of Dalmatia
on the Adriatic coast, make Baska Voda ideal tourist destination.
Confirmation of this statement could be found in traces of
life dated more than three thousand years ago. We invite you
to visit Baska Voda and explore this unique town and it's
surroundings.
Today, apart from the sea and the sun, bathing and pleasant
walks, historical monuments and a museum, Baska Voda offers
attractive cultural and entertainment programs. Very interesting
are religious feasts - especially the Good Friday procession
(which proceeds through all villages in the municipality, 15
km), St. Nicholas' Day (patron of Baska Voda, 6th of December).
The festival of harmony-singing groups of the Makarska littoral
is held on St. Lawrence's Day (10th of August).
Visitor opportunities include various sports and recreational
activities (tennis, football, handball, table tennis, miniature
golf, fishing, hiking, etc.). Entertainment opportunities
in the evening and night hours include various programs in
bars, discotheques and on summer terraces. A number of restaurants
and inns offer local specialities. Attractive excursions are
also organized.
