Marina Frapa

Marina Frapa, a village and harbour in the cove bearing the same name, 25 km south of Sibenik; population 825. Chief occupations are farming, fishing and tourism. Marina Frapa in village is located on the peninsula (the former islet of Kopara was connected with the mainland by an artificial dyke in the second half of the 19th c.) which divides the cove of Luka Rogoznica into the western and the eastern part. The cove of Rogoznica east of Cape Ploce is a favourable shelter for yachts. Rogoznica lies on a local road, branching off from the main road (M2, E65). Rogoznica was populated as early as ancient times. The parish church was built in 1615 and reconstructed in the 19th century. On top of its village are the remains of a fortification; the construction was started by the French in 1809. - In the Marina Frapa are mediaeval churches of St. Nicholas (with stelae) and Bl. John of Trogir, constructed in the mediaeval Dalmatian architectural styles; an artificial island was made in the bay in 1993-1996, to be used as a marina.Berlin 1432 km Frankfurt 1102 km Munchen 803 km Graz 550 km Amsterdam 1695 km Paris 1627 km Warszawa 1366 km Bratislava 730 km Budapest 720 km Prague 1027 km Venice 547 km Trieste 400 km
