Paradise on European islands, not far from the main capital, can be mistaken for lush mountains, golden sands, blue seas and the Caribbean or Maldives. Located in the city of Split, a bustling city that attracts over 900,000 tourists every year, Braki continues to be one of Croatia's finest secrets.
Despite its modest size of just 91 square miles, Braki boasts a rich history. Originally it was famous for its white marble, which was used in iconic structures such as the Diocretician Palace in Split and the American White House, which was reportedly used in 1792 with “brush stones.”
A travel expert at Wayfarer Wave said:
They added: “We don't let the yacht slide into the port of Brac or politicians go for a walk through the village streets, which is why it offers a great window to life, especially on the real island inside.”
The picturesque Zlatnirat Beach, also known as the Golden Horn, captures the essence of Croatia's stunning coastline with its iconic tongue-like stretches. Surrounded by green pine forests and towering cliffs, the site offers windsurfing fans a gentle escape or adrenaline rush.
For those keen to dig into the past, Blaca Hermitage is a thrilling slice of history surrounded by mountains. Founded in 1551 by a priest who fled the Turks of the Ottoman Empire, this her acted both as a sanctuary and as a hub of education, Mirror reports.
“By the 18th century, Hermitage served three remote villages, and the priests ran the school from one of the rooms,” Lonely Planet explained in detail. The Hermitage stands as a testimony to the times, and its final chapter was concluded in 1963 with the death of Father Nikola Miricevic, a Renaissance man who, along with religious obligations, accepted poetry and astronomy.
For those seeking thrill, the trekking at Vidova Gora Mountain is an inescapable adventure. With a rise of 778 meters, it claims the title of the highest peak in the Adriatic Islands, offering a great day all the way to the far mountains of Habal and Perriershak Peninsula with panoramic views.
