The Sibenik Riviera with a rich natural diversity offers countless possibilities of sports. Water sports are well represented so you can enjoy sailing, water skiing, windsurfing…

 

Apart from the usual sports and recreational activities, Rogoznica also offers fencing opportunities. The fencing school and the International Fencing Camp at the Fencing Club "Galeb Grafoplast" have been active since 1987.

 

The waters around Rogoznica contain many shipwrecks from different historical periods, so we might say there is a museum in the deep blue sea, a trove of historical material intriguing to scholars and tourists alike. In the first century BC, it was impossible to sail around Cape Planka or Cape Diomedes during a huge storm. This is the region of the jugo and bura, local winds that are linked to the myth of the Argonauts, and that conspire to produce one of the most deadly navigable points on the eastern coast of the Adriatic.

A Roman ship transporting 150 amphorae full of wine from northern Italy to Greece anchored for the last time in the Bay of Gornji Muli in Rogoznica. For a medium-sized boat overloaded with amphorae, even a closed bay was not safe. She capsized and sank to a depth of 20 meters, hitting the underwater rocks, and her wreckage is scattered across a field 13 x 10 m in size. The site was excavated and preserved in 1998.

During the cold days of winter and war in January 1942, a large Italian transport ship called ‘’Nuncio’’ was sunk by a British submarine between the Mulo lighthouse and Velika Smokvica. The wreck lay undiscovered at the bottom of the sea for sixty-six years.

Diving in the Kornati archipelago is a special experience.

 

The adventurists’ heaven is rafting on the river Zrmanja.

 

For a true dose of adrenalin try bungee jumping off the bridge in Sibenik. The height of the bridge is 40 m and the range of the arch is 362 m.

 

Those who want to have fun until the early hours of the morning need to dance in the discotheque Aurora.
