🤝 Traditional Hospitality

Dalmatian culture places guests at its heart. You’ll be greeted with ‘kava’ (coffee) or a shot of homemade rakija. Families often invite visitors to celebrate local customs—accepting such invitations leads to the most authentic experiences.

🎶 Local Festivals

Summer brings town feasts (‘fiesta’) with folk music, Klapa singing, and traditional dance. Don’t miss Jezera’s Fishermen’s Festival (late July) celebrating the sea with grilled fish, local wine, and dancing under the stars.

🌍 Cultural Exchanges

Volunteer at olive harvests or konoba cooking workshops to learn age-old techniques. Language exchanges at local cafés pair travelers with residents—perfect for practicing Croatian phrases and making lifelong friends.
