Fireplanes over Seget Vranjica

It happens during the summer season, and this time there was a fire bihind the hills in the north of Seget Vranjica. Two fireplanes were flying over our apartment before they hit the surface west of Seget Vranjica.


In the harbour it was easy to hear the roaming from the engines each time the fireplanes returned from the mountains.

The planes hit the surface along the shoreline between Seget Vranjica and Poljica. We could not see where they dropped the water, but we could see smoke from the mountains in the north.

A part of Seget Vranjica

Just a few kilometers west of Trogir you will find Seget Vranjica. This village has its own harbour and beaches. The picture below is taken in the eastern part of the harbour and it gives a wiev to the western part and the beach (seen to the left).
Situated only a few kilometers from Trogir and Split airport this area is getting more and more popular for those who want to experience Croatian culture and still be close to the sea.

Baska Voda in October

Baska Voda is one of the most popular towns on the Makarska Riviera. Two years ago I was in Tucepi on a holiday and we wanted to see more of this beautiful coastline in Croatia. First we went by bus to Makarska where we saw the harbour and the beach in the wester part of the town. A friend of us then recommended us to visit Baska Voda, and so we did.

15-20 minutes on a bus led us to the harbour in Baska Voda. We had heard about this popular and busy town but in October the town was quiet and peaceful. We went for a walk along the beach found in the centre of the harbor. At the end of the bay a new bay and a new beach started. We passed several hotels in the eastern part of the bay but we were the only ones who used the beach.

Back in the harbour we saw the statue of St. Nicolas. From the pier we could see the beach we had been walking on and the churches in the town. That view can be seen on the picture below.


Like the rest of the riviera Baska Voda also has those beautiful grey mountains as a background.
