Prvic Island

The island of Prvic is closest to the mainland and has a surface area of a mere 2.3 square kilometers. No wonder that cars never became popular here, nor indeed on any of the other islands described below. The two main villages, Sepurine and Prvic Luka, are connected by a kilometer-long path. Walking and swimming are the most popular pursuits on this island.

Prvic is fertile: grapes are grown here and the slopes are covered in olive trees. In the past, the island belonged to rich patrician families from Sibenik. The tenants lived from fishing and from raising animals; they would simply take their sheep and goats onto neighboring islands leaving them to roam around freely. Today, the main source of income is tourism. There aren't many fish in the sea here, at least not close to the coast.

The biggest village on Prvic is Sepurine. Its natural stone houses are lined up in a picturesque row along the harbor. If it weren't for the ugly modern post office and the supermarket, you might think time had stopped here. This impression is even stronger late in the season, when mainly locals are to be seen in the streets.

Prvic Luka is the second most important village, stretching along Luka Bay. The village itself makes a very friendly impression because the facades of the houses are decorated with colorful shutters contrasting pleasantly with the strict gray of the stone walls. In the 15th century, Franciscan monks settled here, but, unfortunately, their monastery was destroyed by fire; it was rebuilt in 1884, in order to give a new home in the Sibenik area to the Glagolithic movement.
