In the wide Zlatna uvala bay, on a small cape, a medieval town Sukošan was formed.
Today the town extends along the entire large bay, and its ancient part is now in the very centre of the developed tourist resort.
The coastline and many bays, sandy beaches and clear sea are suitable for a family vacation. During the summer months, various exhibitions are taking place, as well as concerts and theatre performances. Fishermen Nights, with fish, Dalmatian wine and songs are held every Thursday.
It was named after St. Kasijan, whose name the parish church carries. The church was built in the Middle Ages. The archbishop of Zadar Matheo Valaresso has built his mansion in the peaceful landscape of the Sukošan bay on an artificially made islet. This palace was the most significant example of country house architecture in the 15th century. The square "Upper door" is particularly vivid with renovated old villas converted into charming restaurants and a chapel dedicated to the Virgin Mary. The city comprises of traditional narrow streets and natural promenades. It’s a place of vineyards, olive groves, lush vegetation and friendly hosts.
With its expansive Marina Dalmacija and a rich historical backdrop, Sukošan combines convenience with beauty, making it an ideal gateway to the Adriatic's treasures.
