Otok Krapanj je najmanji i najmanje naseljen od svih otoka šibenskog arhipelaga. Zapravo je Krapanj u osnovi ravna kamena ploča u moru (najviša točka visoka je samo 7 metara na 0,4 kv. km. otoku). Zapadni dio otoka je šumovit, a istočni dio sadrži malo selo Krapanj.Tradicionalna industrija na otoku Krapnju okuplja i prerađuje spužve koje su stoljećima okupirale otok. Zbog toga su ovdje otvorili i zanimljiv muzej spužvi. Već u 15. stoljeću Krapanj je bio utočište za izbjeglice iz turske okupacije. Iz tog razdoblja postoji franjevački samostan i crkva. Samostan vrijedi posjetiti zbog renesansnog klaustra i slike Francesca da Santacrocea.Na otok svaki sat vozi brod iz Brodarice, malog sela osam kilometara južno od Šibenika.

We toured the sponge museum and admired the enchanting sponges processed here. The paintings on the walls of the monastery made me love and even appreciate the good work of artisans. We also took a boat ride to sail through the Island.

We had a boat ride through the Island and were fascinated by the vicinity of the surroundings. In the evenings i would stay in the quiet and peaceful church for meditation and even say a prayer. The interiors of the house are magnificent.

The idea of visiting the sponge industry was great. I came here to see how the sponge was manufactured. It was a great experience. Later I went to the sponge museum where the guide explained the origin of sponges. He took me around the museum. I had gained a lot of knowledge when I left.

I learned of the history of the island and it providing refuge for refugees from Turkey.I went on a boat ride through the island and was fascinated by the beautiful scenery of the island from the sea view. I took a lot of picture of this place for remembrance.

This is one of the Islands of Sibenik archipelago. It is really small. It has existed since the 15th century. I loved how small and remote it was. I visited the Franciscan Monastery and I was perplexed by its ancient beauty.
