What to do
Besides the spectacular nature, there are few historic places noteworthy of visiting such as the thousand years old fortress Topana, Saint Francis church, and its adjoining Franciscan monastery. The monastery has a very rich collection of historic art crafts.   Jezero, Pazar, and Bazana old quarters are full of stone houses that date from the 18th century or even earlier.  Imotski county is full of old Illyrian, Roman, and medieval archeological sites.

The town has a very rich cultural tradition, reaching the peak during the Carnival days. The summer brings "Imotska Sila" with many plays and concerts in the open. Very active and successful town brass band that has more than hundred years old tradition is active year long.

There are many opportunities for a half day or full day trips: Red Lake, Biokovo mountain, Vrljika river.  Lokvičići lakes,  Badnjevice canyon, etc.  Biking, especially mountain biking is well advised.  Unfortunately, the place is still too small and the tourism service not so developed; which is what is also very appealing, to offer bike renting.

Imo-adventure race
One of the recent attractive events is the international Imo-adventure or seven lakes adventure race, where contestants compete in running, swimming, kayaking, bicycling, trekking, and steel rope descending.   It is in its third year and only the most enduring should apply.   Here is a short video of the race from 2003.
