Travel Differently Croatia Series Sibenik The Fortress City By The Sea

Welcome back to Travel Differently: Croatia Series.
Today, we’re exploring Šibenik — one of Croatia’s most overlooked gems and a city that rewards curious travellers with stone-built beauty, timeless history, and views that stretch across the Adriatic.

This is the only city on the coast founded by Croatians, and you feel that identity everywhere — in its winding alleys, sunlit stairways, and fortress-studded skyline.
Its crown jewel, the Cathedral of St. James, is a UNESCO masterpiece built entirely of stone, fitted together without a drop of mortar. Look closely and you’ll spot 71 carved faces circling the exterior — everyday people from centuries ago, immortalized in limestone.

From the sea-level power of St. Nicholas Fortress guarding the St. Anthony Channel, to the sweeping views from St. Michael and Barone Fortresses above the rooftops, Šibenik tells its story through every layer of its landscape.

This is a city that feels discovered slowly — in the quiet corners, the morning rituals, the warm Adriatic breeze, and the small moments that make travel unforgettable.

If you enjoy spotlighting underrated destinations and discovering Croatia beyond the usual stops, don’t miss this one.

Thanks for watching — and until next time, here’s to discovering life differently.
Cheers.
