Tourist destination info Grebastica

Grebastica is a small picturesque town, located 15km from Sibenik, in a bay near the Ostrica peninsula. It is enclosed by the Ostrica peninsula from the north and by land and the Tmara island from the south. Grebastica is surrounded by pebble beaches and Mediterranean vegetation. The place is first mentioned in 1298 as “Grebac”. Remains of the Roman buildings, as well as the stone cover of the Roman sarcophagus found in the local cemetery, next to the church of St. Peter and Mary, testify to the existence of the roman village. Visit historical sites, such as: St. Luka and Konjusina convent (contains the remains of roman buildings), St. Mary church, St. Peter chape (tomb stones and the cover of a roman sarcophagus are found on the cemetery), St. Peter church (small church located near the church of St. Mary), defense wall known as “bedem” (symbol of the place, located on the Ostrica peninsula), Holy Ghost church (votive church, a token of appreciation of the Grebastica population to God for saving them from the Turkish invasions), as well as numerous other historical sites. During the summer months, Grebastica comes to life, like any other Dalmatian place. Various musical evenings are organized, as well as fishing night, and many other manifestations. Sports and active vacation fans can enjoy diving, fishing, sailing, hiking, cycling, volleyball, basketball, football and numerous other activities. If you are willing to savor the specialties of this region and savor the gastronomy of Dalmatia, visit the restaurant “Stari Sibenik”.
