Weed in Šibenik, Croatia: A Simple Story

Hi there! This is a story about a trip to Šibenik, Croatia, where I learned some interesting things about cannabis, or in other words weed or ganja. It’s a magic plant that people use to feel relaxed or happy. But in Šibenik, it’s not so easy to find, and there are some important rules about it.

I just got back from Šibenik a couple of days ago, and as I sit here enjoying a small joint of white widow, I can’t help but reflect on the great time I had in Šibenik — thanks in part to the cannabis that accompanied me on my adventures.

Šibenik’s Weed Vibe: What Locals Say

Just ‘cause the government’s trippin' on cannabis laws in Šibenik doesn’t mean the locals are too pressed. Most of 'em are just livin' their lives, not sweatin' what you do. But don’t get it twisted — keep it respectful. Smoking weed in public in Šibenik ain't the move, but if someone peeps you tokin’, it’s not the end of the world.

The overall attitude of locals to weed is rather relaxed, so you may even feel yourself home in Šibenik after one good joint, telling this from my own experience. Joe shared with me a joint of simply perfect sativa (while he did not know the exact strain). We were smoking outside the bar, and saw other guys doing the same on the other side of the street 😁 So I can definitely say that smoking weed is rather popular in Šibenik.

I’ve asked Joe if he may share contacts of his dealer, cause stuff was out of this world. He told me that his exact dealer does not work with new people, so he will be my dealer during my vacation, which was simply perfect. I wish everyone to find your own Joe in some bar of Šibenik.

Weed Laws in Croatia: The Real Deal

Alright, let’s break it down — Croatia ain’t playin' with their weed laws. If you’re thinkin' you can just stroll into a shop and cop some high-THC weed in Šibenik like you do in the Netherlands, nah fam, think again. You won’t find any legit spots sellin' anything with enough THC to get you lifted. You might see some medical stuff, but that CBD ain't gon' do nothin'.

Met this dude Joe in the hotel bar. He’s been around the Šibenik block, knows what’s up with the ganja scene out here. Turns out, while the rules are strict on paper, the cops ain't always on it like that.

How the Cannabis Law Is Enforced in Šibenik

Technically, any cannabis product with more than 1% THC is illegal in Šibenik. However, Joe explained that the police tend to be relatively relaxed when it comes to cannabis in Šibenik, especially with tourists.

If you’re caught with a small amount — less than 10 grams of weed or 5 grams of hash — you’re unlikely to face serious consequences. The police might confiscate your weed, but it’s unlikely you’ll get into much trouble as long as you’re discreet.

Where to Buy Cannabis in Šibenik

So, how do you actually buy cannabis in Šibenik? Joe shared some insights. Big dealers in Šibenik often source their products through the darknet — using services like DrChronic or Bitpharma. They then resell the cannabis to locals and tourists. While this method is possible, it’s not really practical for short-term visitors. Navigating the darknet and waiting for a package can be complicated and time-consuming.

For tourists, the process of obtaining weed in Šibenik is a bit different. Street dealers are less common these days. Instead, many have moved to a more discreet system using encrypted messaging apps like Telegram. You get their contact details from someone who’s already bought weed in Šibenik or through online forums, then you place your order, arrange a drop-off point, and pay with cryptocurrency. The package is typically left in a hidden spot, and you’re given the location and a photo to help you find it. This approach minimizes risks for both you and the dealer. I was glad I had Joe as my connection so I didn’t have to go through all this hassle.
