Another interesting thing about Omiš is that during the middle ages. Omiš pirates used rowing boats, also known as “Omiš arrows” in the direct translation. One of the most important characteristics of the boats being their shallow waterline, which enabled them great maneuverability. Omiš pirates also built an underwater wall at the very start of the river bottom, which proved to pay off tremendously. The wall having only one small opening at a specific location that would let Omiš pirates through, but would close with a chain link that would end up marooning the ships of the invaders that chased after them.
