90. Dalmatian: PRVIĆ
Prvić Island, or "Faust's Island," is located just two kilometers off the coast of Vodice and is nearly connected to the island of Zlarin by long sandy and coral reefs. Whether it was named after the ancient Croatian god of spring or because the people of Vodice called it so as it is the nearest inhabited island, is difficult to say with certainty.
The island is a picturesque home to two small villages: Šepurine on the west and Prvić Luka on the south side of the island, as well as many hidden coves and beaches. The history of the island is inevitably tied to its most famous resident from Prvić Luka, the renowned scientist, inventor, and bishop Faust Vrančić.
Enchanted by the magic of this island, he built a summer mansion, which remains the only preserved noble estate on Prvić Island today. According to his last wishes, he was buried in the Church of Our Lady of Grace in Prvić Luka.
MOST IMPORTANT: All of the above, and much more, is known to White Shark, who, immediately after the announcement of the "Dalmatian sale," claimed the "ownership title" for Prvić. A huge thank you 🩵
