Of the 16th century walls collapsed in the 19th century only the three storey tower, so-called Caric's Tower, has been preserved. The parish church with richly adorned Baroque front was built in 1749 by Ivan Skoko, an architect from Sibenik; the Baroque belfry was erected by master Vicko Macanovic in the 18th century. The painting of the Holy Family on the main altar is a work by an anonymous master from the 17th till the 18th century.The remains of a building from the Turkish period are at the entrance into the town. The small church of the Holy Cross (the former parish church), built in 1662 by Vicko Ivanov from Korcula, is situated on the graveyard to the west of the town. Nice beaches, peaceful coves and aromatic vegetation facilitate the development of organized tourism in Vodice, which emerged in the 1960s. The inhabitants of Vodice pay special attention to nature and environmental protection.
