We reached here by a ferry. We took a walk in the vineyard, the ambience was pleasant and the atmosphere lovely, we even sat under the shades of the olive groves. I loved sunbathing at the bay as i enjoyed the beautiful views of the surroundings.

On arrival in this Island, our first destination was the palace church, it has unique interior design, we said a prayer before proceeding with our trip. We walked into the vineyard where grapes that make wine are made. We had a chance to taste some of the grapes and wine made from those grapes.

The historic sights here were amazing the old fortress was awesome. I walked around the fortress and had this cool feeling. I enjoyed sitting on the bench and watching birds of different types.

we enjoyed tasty wines from the vineyards, together with the cool atmosphere at kaprije island. my friends and I were excited walking along the warm sandy beaches. we were able to have a clue on how the refugees were attacked by the Turks in the 16th century.

This Island is so remote. I loved every moment I spent here. I really enjoyed swimming in its blue waters. Its an old Island. It dates back to the 15th century. I enjoyed visiting its churches it was such a divine and historical moment.
