Omiš and the Pirate Night

The town of Omiš is situated on the estuary of the Cetina River, 25 km south from Split. The Cetina River flows into the sea through the magnificent stone gate thus representing geological symbol of this beautiful town.

The bridge over the Cetina River connects the older and the newer parts of the town. Apart from its unique geological location, Omiš is also well known for its interesting history which traces can be found in stone houses that form the old part of the town. In one of those houses, you can find our travel agency wich organizes excursion „Pirate night“ every summer.

Hundreds of years old pirate tradition has made Omiš a recognizable tourst pearl, placed in the heart of Falmatia, between Split and Makarska riviera.

Recollecting memories of the rich pirate history dating from the XII, XII and XIV centuries, we reach the masters of Omiš, the noble Kacic family, who were paid a tribute for a safe and in that way the only possible navigation on that part of the Adriatic.
