HISTORY

The first settlement referred to the area of Vodice dates back from the prehistoric age. Further on, it seems that one of the main Roman roads went through this area, making it later move to the coastline.

This coastline will later on become a point of largest export of fresh drinking water during the 19th Century. Therefore, it is no surprise that this relatively small place had at that time already one of the largest "Rivas" (coast built in stone), quite unproportioned to the town's own size. The "Riva" was place that besides the trade was home to everyday life of the locals. Water is a phenomenon related since ever to Vodice.
