Description:
Town and harbour on the coast of the Vi-nodol Channel, 3 km southeast of Crikvenica; elevation 22 m; population 1,439. It is situated on a slightly slanted limestone slope in the cove of the same name, separated from a smaller cove, Slana, by Selce Cape. The coast is low and rocky, with a number of sand beaches. Selce developed on the location of a Roman antique habitation, near the springs (Jama, Polaca, etc.). The harbour is 5 km from Bribir, one of the ancient fortifications of Vi-nodol. Selce is located on the main road, i.e. Adriatic main road (M2, E65).
Selce has a hundred-year-old tradition in tourism. The first seaside resort was opened in the distant 1894; that year is considered the beginning of tourism in this area. Selce is a small town with well-preserved Primorje style, offering a number of visitor opportunities (hotels, campsites, rooms), with well-maintained, mostly pebble beaches; boat piers and small ports and a picturesque seaside promenade (Lungomare). Sports and recreational facilities for outdoor recreation (tennis, miniature golf) and water sports. Cultural programs and entertainment are offered in the nearby town Crikvenica.
