Sumartin – a small inconspicuous village

Sumartin Impression

Sumartin Sumartin can be reached from the town of Makarska by ferry several times a day. It is rather a village on the easternmost tip of Brač. It is not the top destination of this island, it is rather a naselje (settlement) visited by people who have fallen in love with it. In the town there are several beaches, a lot of cottages, a church with a monastery and original dwellings. There is no city center like in other locations. Not even the army crowds the restaurant and suvenirnica (souvenir shop).

Since on vacation you need to see as much as possible and use every moment to get to know the surroundings, Sumartin from Makarska offered himself. In addition, we do not prefer organized trips in which you are limited by a set program. The journey to Sumartin took about an hour.

It consists of pine forests with Mediterranean fauna and flora. Mostly rocks of course. However, it is not so easy to get to the national park. You have to wait in a row.

Majestic Biokovo

Thanks to God, we solved this problem by ordering a trip through a local travel agency, which had prearranged entry, so the wait at the entrance only took a few minutes. We breathed a sigh of relief when we saw the column waiting to enter and confirmed our choice.

Bol and a little mermaid

Bol Impression

Everyone knows Golden Horn or Zlatni rat, which is the most famous and most photographed beach in Croatia. This beach was the destination of my trip during my stay in Split. Everyone who has seen photos of her probably wants to see if it is really so.

It is not a problem to get here by catamaran from Split. Zlatni rat is located about 2 km on foot from the town of Bol on the island of Brač. In Croatia, this location is considered a celebrity resort, which is reflected in the prices. The catamaran drove with us for about an hour before we arrived at the small jetty in Bol. It was located on the opposite side of the island, so we had to swim all the way around it, which gave us a closer idea of ​​the character of the whole island.
