Omiš
is
a small town and port at the mouth of the Cetina river in the
littoral of Poljica, 26 km southeast of Split.
Major attractions include quality accommodation facilities, good
traffic connections, gastronomic offer (the hinterland of Omiš
is famous for wholesome foods) and the Cetina canyon - Zadvarje -
Gubavica. In the vicinity is also the well-known restaurant in
Radmanove Mlinice (water mills), which offers local specialities.
Omiš
is known as a mediaeval pirate centre. Picturesque mountains and
the river enclose the urban core with fortresses. On the coast is
an almost 1-km long sand beach (ideal for children) and the 700-m
long shallow, created by the Cetina drifts.
There are 30 free climbing trails on the cliffs of the Cetina
canyon; water sports equipment is rented; a swimming marathon for
recreation enthusiasts is regularly organized. |
