Rogoznica is a quiet Mediterranean town. Its center is located on a peninsula, the former island of Kopar, connected to the mainland in the second half of the 19th century by an artificial embankment. Most of the island is covered with forest, and the inhabited part is dominated by old stone houses that reflect the old Mediterranean climate.
Rogoznica is known as one of the most beautiful and safe harbors, often visited by sailors. Its residents are engaged in agriculture, fishing and tourism. We recommend interesting monuments of Rogoznica's cultural heritage: the church of St. Nicholas, the church of St. John of Trogir, the parish church of the Blessed Virgin Mary, the chapel of the Virgin Mary, the ruins of the fortress built by the French on top of the village. It is believed that there was a Greek colony of Heracles in the area of Rogoznica. We also recommend a beautiful natural phenomenon: the salt lake "Eye of the Dragon". Rogoznica is famous for its magnificent pebble, concrete and rocky beaches, where everyone can find a place for themselves.
