We were excited to reach this place. We explored the caves and went to the Bay which had a beautiful beach. We also visited the church and enjoyed a quiet time in the park.

The Ulysses Cave was the perfect spot to escape the bustle of the town. We went for swimming at that had a beach with clean crystal clear water . I had an amazing relaxing time here.

The first church dedicated to Sv. Pancras built in the XI century is a great spectacle. I particularly loved the architectural style used in its construction. I learned that the church was owned by the Benedictines from Lokrum in 1039. It was a great experience touring this beautiful location.

The famous Ulysses Cave and Sutmiholj Bay were great locations that I visited. The kids loved boating under the cave and watching the beautiful blue waters change with the sun's rays. My wife loved spending time by the beach sunbathing and tanning.
