Strategic location: The city is the gateway to two national parks – Krka and Kornati – which significantly increases its tourist appeal and, consequently, the value of real estate.

Unique advantages of the Šibenik area

Šibenik and its surroundings are a magnet for investors. The city boasts two UNESCO monuments – St. James's Cathedral and St. Nicholas's Fortress – which is unique. This historical depth makes every house for sale with a sea view a valuable commodity. Šibenik is protected by a complex of four fortifications, including the oldest Fortress of St. Michael (now a summer stage) and Fortress Barone (used as a military base until 1991).

• Cradle of innovation: The city was the third in the world to have an alternating current (AC) system for street lighting (as early as 1895).
• Film backdrop: The city gained international fame as the backdrop for Braavos in the Game of Thrones series.
• Year-round demand: The proximity of Krka National Park and the presence of the Michelin-starred Pelegrini restaurant guarantee year-round demand for apartments in this area.
