The island of Prvi\u0107 is situated in the \u0160ibenik archipelago, just in front of the St. Anthony Channel, near \u0160ibenik and Vodice. The nearest mainland is only 900 meters away. Its area is only 2.41 square kilometers, while the length of the coast is 10.6 km. The highest peak, Vitkovi\u0107, is 79 m high. The boat trip to Prvi\u0107 from \u0160ibenik, a panoramic view of the city, passing through St. Anthony\u2019s Channel, the view of Zlarin, Lupac and other islands that appear on the horizon, is just the beginning of an extraordinary experience of Prvi\u0107, an island without cars. The same Jadrolinija boat line goes from Vodice as well, so it is possible to access the island from another, equally attractive side. Peace and quiet, untouched nature and clear sea make Prvi\u0107 distinguish from coastal places on mainland. Prvi\u0107 is a small island that can be seen in one day by foot, enjoying the scent of the sea, a characteristic Dalmatian landscape in which pine forests alternate with cultivated fields, chapels on rocks, hidden beaches. The view on uninhabited blue-green islands descends all the way to Kornati islands, while the mountains Velebit and Dinara, as well as the island of Vis are visible from few places on the island. The locals and visitors of Prvi\u0107 can enjoy along the pedestrian-cycling trail by the sea, but also crossing the hills, the pathways along vineyards, olive groves and orchards, making it an ideal destination for hiking and trekking. A swimmer and sunbather can choose between sandy-pebble beaches of \u0160epurine and the cliffs on the less crowded places along the seafront.<\/p>

There are two different views on the origins of the island\u2019s name: first that the island was named after the old Croatian pagan god of spring, Prvi\u0107 or Prvina, and secondly because it is the first to mainland. Prvi\u0107 is inhabited since classical period, evidenced by archaeological remains from several locations in Prvi\u0107 Luka.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

Continuity of population at the island is evident and can be seen from old Croatian jewelry found from 9\/10 century in graves, stored in the Archaeological Museum in Zagreb, and a records about Benedictine monastery in the 10th century in an unknown location. Already in the Middle Ages Prvi\u0107, next to Zlarin, was the exclusive resort of the \u0160ibenik aristocracy and wealthy citizens, as well as their place to escape the plague. This was\n\n\npreceded by the \u0160ibenik noble families Taveli\u0107, Divni\u0107, \u0160i\u017egori\u0107 and Dragani\u0107-Vran\u010di\u0107, and only the last of them preserved a renaissance summer residence in the area of today\u2019s \u0160epurina \u2013 the same one in which a good part of his childhood spent Faust Vran\u010di\u0107. In the mentioned properties, there were, apart from the summer houses and the commercial building, also the people who worked on the nobility\u2019s property. Over time, when people from hinterland ran from Turks, the settlement Luka developed around the monastery and the church of St. Mary of Grace in the 15th century, while the another village of \u0160epurine was created later in the 16th century.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

In the past, the local population was most engaged with the cultivation of Mediterranean cultures and cattle-breeding, trade, maritime affairs and, of course, fishing, and less well-known, with sponge and coral collecting, whereby Krapanj and Zlarin later took over the main role. In the 19th century, people from Prvi\u0107 owned more fishing and merchant ships than all the places from Murter to Primo\u0161ten together. People from Prvi\u0107 are owners of many overseas property, especially on the uninhabited islands of the archipelago, but also the greater part of the Srima peninsula, where they have left a significant footprint with their contribution to the drystone heritage.<\/p>

Today Prvi\u0107 tries to cultivate sustainable family, nautical, cultural and ecological tourism. Apart from the hotel Maestral, it is possible to stay in private accommodation. In traditional dishes, fresh fish and seafood, as well as meat specialties, you can enjoy right next to the sea, on the terraces of four restaurants and two taverns.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

On the island there are also two pizzerias and several cafe bars. In both settlements there is a shop, green market and post office. In Prvi\u0107 \u0160epurine, islanders attend the first four grades of elementary school and then later travel to the mainland. According to the latest census of 2011, Prvi\u0107 Luka had 164 and Prvi\u0107 \u0160epurine 239 inhabitants. The main island road connects Prvi\u0107 Luka and Prvi\u0107 \u0160epurine. It takes only ten minutes of pleasant walk along the island\u2019s landscape.<\/p>

Regarding the cultural monuments, in Prvi\u0107 Luka there are church and monastery of St. Mary of Grace from the 15th century. The monastery has been for centuries the bigest foothold of the Slavic church service in the \u0160ibenik area. Faust Vran\u010di\u0107, was buried in this church by his last will, and his body was taken by boat from Venice. On the way to \u0160epurine, there is church of Nativity of the Virgin Mary, situated between the new playground and the water well which was the main water supply for people from Prvi\u0107 until the arrival of the public water system on the island in 1978. There are two churches in \u0160epurine: St. Jelena (also known as St. Roko) in the center of the settlement, from 17th century and the church of Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary, from the end of the 19th century, next to the Renaissance mansion of the Dragani\u0107-Vran\u010di\u0107 family. Interesting artillery items from World War I and II are located on the three highest elevations of the island.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
