About
Marina |
|
| Major tourist attractions
of Marina are a nice sand beach in the shade of olive and pine trees,
the atmosphere of ancient Dalmatian wine cellars, fresh fish and quality
local wines, a blend of the ancient and the modern. Sportsmen and
recreation enthusiasts may enjoy yachting, diving and fishing. Boats
and yachts are rented. Entertainment and cultural programs are offered
in the nearby towns of Trogir and Split. |

| MARINA, a village and small harbour in the interior
part of the Marina bay, 12 km west of Trogir; population 897. The
coasts of the Marina bay are very well indented, with a number of
small coves with sand and pebble beaches. Marina is located on the
main road (M2, E65). Small yachts may dock within the small harbour
and are protected from all winds; larger yachts may dock at the end
of the bay, southeast of the chapel and south of the Plokata hill. |

| The settlement was planned in the 16th century.
In the period 1495-1500 the bishops of Trogir built a quadrangular
tower on the islet in the bay. The tower has console battlements (the
channel between the mainland and the tower was filled up and levelled
at the beginning of the 20th c.); the structure was repaired during
the Candian war in 1657 and 1717; reconstructed in 1971/1972. The
church of St. John has Gothic and Renaissance elements. In the field
close to the village there is a small Gothic church of St. Luke with
the coat of arms of the Sobota family. |
