Markaska is a habour city on the Dalmatian coast. It is famous for its clean beaches, its seafront and the extremely clear and pure water. The Kacic-square is the town centre.

If you want to see the top of the Sveti Jure – the highest mountain of the Biokova – you can either use the winding road by car or climb on top of the mountain, which is exhausting and needs some preparation. But is is definitely and adventure you will never forget.
