Croatia - Island Solta - Maslinica
Maslinica is the
western-most point of the island of Solta. Looking out form the town
there is a beautiful view of 7 little islands that can leave no one
indifferent (Polebnjak, Saskinja, Balkun, Kamik, Rudula, Grmej,
Stipanska). The coast nearby Maslenica is divided into bays with small
gravel beaches (Tepli Bok, Šoškova, Poganica, Vela Luka).
The real value of this place is that you can find around every corner a
small solitary bay for bathing, and the special experience is bathing on
the small islands around Maslenica. This lovely town offers an ideal
condition for a peaceful family holiday.
Ferryboats and ships are not connected with Maslinica so that the line
with Split is held through Rogač.
The bay also offers a secure anchorage for yachts, because it is
protected on all sides from the winds and the waves.
Maslenica came to be in 1703 when the noble family Marchi seeked
approval for establishing a new settlement and for building a castle
with protective towers in order to defend the place from pirate attacks.
Part of the castle has now been transformed into an attractive and
well-known restaurant "Conte Alberti". Other historical sites can be
found on the island of Stipanska, where there are ruins of an old
Christian basilica.
