Quiet island life meets a Dalmatian inventor’s ideas
Prvić Luka is peaceful, car-free and lined with old stone houses. The memorial centre brings Faust Vrančić’s designs and inventions to life, engaging for older children too.
Villa Mare
Park in Vodice and take the scheduled boat to Prvić Luka.

Then stroll around the harbour and lanes; with time, walk towards Šepurine.
Our local tip
A good choice for a cloudier day. Check the centre and return boat in advance so you retain enough island time.
Before you leave
