Since 1910, Fishermen's Day has been an important part of the tradition and history of Baška. The event, which started as a competition among the locals, quickly became an unavoidable part of the tourist offer that delights and attracts many visitors to Baška year after year. Although this year we are once again limited by the current epidemiological measures, we have designed an interesting and diverse program of Fishermen's Day, in which many associations from Baška have generously joined in!
