The name Bibano or Bibanium dates as far back as the 11th century. The population always depended on agriculture and cattle breeding, followed by the fishing trade in more recent times.
Bibinje was first mentioned in written documents in 1214. Bibinje has been inhabited since Roman times, which proves the origin of the name of this settlement.
Bibinje was named after Vibius, a Roman patrician who owned property in the area of today's Bibinje.
