If you are looking for things to do in Bra\u010d<\/strong>, you have come to the right place: we stayed on the island for 10 nights, rented a car, and traveled from end to end. In this guide, we share the 16 must-see places, complete with a map, where to stay, how to get there by ferry, and all the tips we wish we had before we went.<\/p>\n

Bra\u010d was one of the stops during our nearly two months traveling through Croatia and its islands (Zagreb, Rab, Dugi Otok, Trogir, Hvar, Kor\u010dula, Dubrovnik…) and we honestly loved it. It is the largest island in Dalmatia, home to the most famous beach in the country, and at the same time, it has stone villages where time seems to have stood still.<\/p>\n[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text admin_label=\u00bbads iati primeros parrafos 5off (2026) – EN\u00bb _builder_version=\u00bb4.27.6″ _module_preset=\u00bbdefault\u00bb global_module=\u00bb15677″ saved_tabs=\u00bball\u00bb locked=\u00bboff\u00bb global_colors_info=\u00bb{}\u00bb]\n

1. Zlatni Rat, the most famous beach among things to do in Bra\u010d<\/h2>\n

We have to start here, no matter what. Zlatni Rat<\/strong> (the \u00abGolden Horn\u00bb) is the most photographed beach in Croatia and one of the most beautiful in the entire Adriatic. It is a spit of white pebbles that stretches about 500 meters into the sea and changes shape according to the wind and currents<\/strong>. Yes, you read that right: the tip of the beach moves and can look a little different every day.<\/p>\n[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image src=\u00bbhttps:\/\/www.recalculandoviajes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/que-ver-en-brac-zlatni-rat.webp\u00bb alt=\u00bbthings to do in brac zlatni rat\u00bb title_text=\u00bbthings to do in brac zlatni rat\u00bb _builder_version=\u00bb4.27.6″ _module_preset=\u00bbdefault\u00bb global_colors_info=\u00bb{}\u00bb][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_text _builder_version=\u00bb4.27.6″ _module_preset=\u00bbdefault\u00bb global_colors_info=\u00bb{}\u00bb]\n

It is about 2 km from the center of Bol and you can reach it by walking along a beautiful coastal path, between pine trees with the sea right beside you, in about 20 minutes. We went several times at different times of the day, and our favorite moment was sunset: the light over the turquoise water is something we won’t forget. However, at the end of July, the beach gets very crowded, so if you can, go early in the morning or late in the afternoon.<\/p>\n[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image src=\u00bbhttps:\/\/www.recalculandoviajes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/zlatni-rat-brac.webp\u00bb alt=\u00bbzlatni rat brac\u00bb title_text=\u00bbzlatni rat brac\u00bb _builder_version=\u00bb4.27.6″ _module_preset=\u00bbdefault\u00bb global_colors_info=\u00bb{}\u00bb][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_text _builder_version=\u00bb4.27.6″ _module_preset=\u00bbdefault\u00bb global_colors_info=\u00bb{}\u00bb]\n

Keep in mind: it is a pebble beach, not sand. Water shoes here are worth their weight in gold! There are umbrella and sunbed rentals, showers, bars, and even windsurfing and kitesurfing schools, as one part of the beach has the perfect wind for these sports.<\/p>\n[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image src=\u00bbhttps:\/\/www.recalculandoviajes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/windsurf-brac.webp\u00bb alt=\u00bbwindsurfing brac\u00bb title_text=\u00bbwindsurfing brac\u00bb _builder_version=\u00bb4.27.6″ _module_preset=\u00bbdefault\u00bb global_colors_info=\u00bb{}\u00bb][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_text _builder_version=\u00bb4.27.6″ _module_preset=\u00bbdefault\u00bb global_colors_info=\u00bb{}\u00bb]\n

2. Bol, the most beautiful village on the island<\/h2>\n

Bol is the most touristy village in Bra\u010d and you can understand why. It has an old town made of white stone with small streets that are a pleasure to walk, a port full of small boats, and a promenade with cafes and restaurants facing the sea. We returned several times during our stay and always found something new to see.<\/p>\n

What we liked most was the atmosphere at sunset: people strolling through the port, fishermen returning with their boats, and that relaxed pace characteristic of Croatian villages that aren’t yet fully overcrowded. From the port of Bol, there are also boat excursions to the neighboring island of Hvar; if that tempts you, we have left you our complete guide on things to do in Hvar<\/a>.<\/p>\n[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image src=\u00bbhttps:\/\/www.recalculandoviajes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/que-ver-en-brac-bol.webp\u00bb alt=\u00bbthings to do in brac bol\u00bb title_text=\u00bbthings to do in brac bol\u00bb _builder_version=\u00bb4.27.6″ _module_preset=\u00bbdefault\u00bb global_colors_info=\u00bb{}\u00bb][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=\u00bb4.24.0″ _module_preset=\u00bbdefault\u00bb global_colors_info=\u00bb{}\u00bb][et_pb_column type=\u00bb4_4″ _builder_version=\u00bb4.24.0″ _module_preset=\u00bbdefault\u00bb global_colors_info=\u00bb{}\u00bb][et_pb_text _builder_version=\u00bb4.27.6″ _module_preset=\u00bbdefault\u00bb global_colors_info=\u00bb{}\u00bb]\n

3. The Dominican Monastery of Bol<\/h2>\n

At the eastern tip of Bol, on a small peninsula surrounded by the sea, is the Dominican Monastery<\/strong>, built in the 15th century. We walked there from the port along the coast and the setting felt like a postcard: the pale stone building, the cypresses, and the Adriatic in the background. <\/p>\n

The monastery has a museum with archaeological pieces and a painting attributed to the studio of Tintoretto that many travelers recommend; we didn’t enter, but just for the walk there and the views, it is worth approaching.<\/p>\n[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image src=\u00bbhttps:\/\/www.recalculandoviajes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/monasterio-dominicano-bol.webp\u00bb alt=\u00bbdominican monastery bol\u00bb title_text=\u00bbdominican monastery bol\u00bb _builder_version=\u00bb4.27.6″ _module_preset=\u00bbdefault\u00bb global_colors_info=\u00bb{}\u00bb][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_text _builder_version=\u00bb4.27.6″ _module_preset=\u00bbdefault\u00bb global_colors_info=\u00bb{}\u00bb]\n

\n

TIP: Right next door is Martinica beach<\/strong>, a small pebble beach that is one of the quietest in town: perfect for a swim away from the crowds of Zlatni Rat.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image src=\u00bbhttps:\/\/www.recalculandoviajes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/playa-martinica-beach-brac.webp\u00bb alt=\u00bbmartinica beach – brac\u00bb title_text=\u00bbmartinica beach – brac\u00bb _builder_version=\u00bb4.27.6″ _module_preset=\u00bbdefault\u00bb global_colors_info=\u00bb{}\u00bb][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=\u00bb4.24.0″ _module_preset=\u00bbdefault\u00bb global_colors_info=\u00bb{}\u00bb][et_pb_column type=\u00bb4_4″ _builder_version=\u00bb4.24.0″ _module_preset=\u00bbdefault\u00bb global_colors_info=\u00bb{}\u00bb][et_pb_text _builder_version=\u00bb4.27.6″ _module_preset=\u00bbdefault\u00bb global_colors_info=\u00bb{}\u00bb]\n

4. Vidova Gora, the rooftop of the Adriatic islands<\/h2>\n

At nearly 780 meters, Vidova Gora is the highest peak in all the Adriatic islands<\/strong> and one of the must-sees of Bra\u010d. From the top, you can see the famous Zlatni Rat in its full horn shape, the island of Hvar across the way, and on clear days, they say you can even make out the Italian coast.<\/p>\n[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image src=\u00bbhttps:\/\/www.recalculandoviajes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/vidova-gora-mirador-brac.webp\u00bb alt=\u00bbvidova gora lookout brac\u00bb title_text=\u00bbvidova gora lookout brac\u00bb _builder_version=\u00bb4.27.6″ _module_preset=\u00bbdefault\u00bb global_colors_info=\u00bb{}\u00bb][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_text _builder_version=\u00bb4.27.6″ _module_preset=\u00bbdefault\u00bb global_colors_info=\u00bb{}\u00bb]\n

You can drive up via a paved road from the interior of the island (it is signposted from Nere\u017ei\u0161\u0107a) or walk from Bol, a demanding two-hour hike that many travelers do early to avoid the heat. If you go in summer, definitely bring water: the sun beats down hard up there.<\/p>\n

A fun fact for a technical stop: in Nere\u017ei\u0161\u0107a<\/strong>, the village in the interior where the road passes, there is a bonsai pine that grows out of the roof of a chapel<\/strong> and is protected as a natural monument. It is one of the most photographed corners of the island and is right on your way.<\/p>\n[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image src=\u00bbhttps:\/\/www.recalculandoviajes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/mirador-brac-zlatni-rat.webp\u00bb alt=\u00bbbrac lookout zlatni rat\u00bb title_text=\u00bbbrac lookout zlatni rat\u00bb _builder_version=\u00bb4.27.6″ _module_preset=\u00bbdefault\u00bb global_colors_info=\u00bb{}\u00bb][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_text _builder_version=\u00bb4.27.6″ _module_preset=\u00bbdefault\u00bb global_colors_info=\u00bb{}\u00bb]\n

5. Murvica Beach, tranquility minutes from Bol<\/h2>\n

About 5 km west of Bol is Murvica<\/strong>, a tiny village of stone houses with a pebble beach that we loved. We spent a whole afternoon there and there were only a couple of people, with the island of Hvar in front and transparent water that looked like a pool. After how busy Zlatni Rat is, this place is another world.<\/p>\n[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image src=\u00bbhttps:\/\/www.recalculandoviajes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/playa-murvica-brac.webp\u00bb alt=\u00bbmurvica beach brac\u00bb title_text=\u00bbmurvica beach brac\u00bb _builder_version=\u00bb4.27.6″ _module_preset=\u00bbdefault\u00bb global_colors_info=\u00bb{}\u00bb][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_text _builder_version=\u00bb4.27.6″ _module_preset=\u00bbdefault\u00bb global_colors_info=\u00bb{}\u00bb]\n

You reach it by car on a narrow road with curves (drive slowly and you’ll be fine) and then you have to walk down a small path to the beach. There are almost no services, so bring water and something to snack on. For us, one of the best things to do in Bra\u010d if you are looking to disconnect.<\/p>\n[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image src=\u00bbhttps:\/\/www.recalculandoviajes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/que-hacer-en-brac-playa-murvica-beach.webp\u00bb alt=\u00bbthings to do in brac murvica beach\u00bb title_text=\u00bbthings to do in brac murvica beach\u00bb _builder_version=\u00bb4.27.6″ _module_preset=\u00bbdefault\u00bb global_colors_info=\u00bb{}\u00bb][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=\u00bb4.24.0″ _module_preset=\u00bbdefault\u00bb global_colors_info=\u00bb{}\u00bb][et_pb_column type=\u00bb4_4″ _builder_version=\u00bb4.24.0″ _module_preset=\u00bbdefault\u00bb global_colors_info=\u00bb{}\u00bb][et_pb_text _builder_version=\u00bb4.24.0″ _module_preset=\u00bbdefault\u00bb global_colors_info=\u00bb{}\u00bb]\n

6. The Dragon’s Cave (Zmajeva \u0161pilja)<\/h2>\n

Just above Murvica hides one of the most mysterious places on the island: the Zmajeva \u0161pilja or Dragon’s Cave<\/strong>, a cave that Glagolitic monks used as a temple in the 15th century. It features reliefs carved into the rock where Christian symbols mix with Slavic mythology, including the dragon that gives it its name.<\/p>\n

Important: you can only enter with a guided tour<\/strong>, because the cave is locked, and you must book in advance. The climb from Murvica is steep, about 50 minutes, so you need comfortable shoes and water. We didn’t do it, but travelers who visited describe it as one of the most original experiences in Croatia.<\/p>\n[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text admin_label=\u00bbads iati Middle seguro de viaje (2026) – EN\u00bb _builder_version=\u00bb4.27.6″ _module_preset=\u00bbdefault\u00bb global_module=\u00bb15701″ saved_tabs=\u00bball\u00bb locked=\u00bboff\u00bb global_colors_info=\u00bb{}\u00bb]\n

7. Blaca Hermitage, history in the middle of nowhere<\/h2>\n

The Blaca Hermitage (Pustinja Blaca)<\/strong> is another one of those places that seem impossible: a 16th-century monastery built against a cliff in a remote area in the south of the island, where the monks had a library, school, printing press, and even an astronomical observatory with one of the most powerful telescopes in Croatia.<\/p>\n

Today it functions as a museum and many travelers point to it as the great secret of Bra\u010d. You reach it by car to the Dragovode parking lot, and from there, it is a 40-minute walk. It is open every day except Mondays: in summer (June 16 to September 15) from 9 am to 5 pm with last entry at 4:30 pm, and the rest of the year from 9 am to 3 pm. Admission is \u20ac8 per adult. There is no bar or kiosk at the site, so bring extra water.<\/p>\n[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=\u00bb4.24.0″ _module_preset=\u00bbdefault\u00bb global_colors_info=\u00bb{}\u00bb][et_pb_column type=\u00bb4_4″ _builder_version=\u00bb4.24.0″ _module_preset=\u00bbdefault\u00bb global_colors_info=\u00bb{}\u00bb][et_pb_text _builder_version=\u00bb4.24.0″ _module_preset=\u00bbdefault\u00bb global_colors_info=\u00bb{}\u00bb]\n

8. Supetar, the gateway to the island<\/h2>\n

Supetar is the largest town in Bra\u010d and the main port: this is where we arrived with the ferry from Split, car included. Beyond being a transit point, it deserves some time: it has a small but charming old town around the port, a church with a bell tower that stands out among the tile roofs, and several pebble and sandy beaches west of the pier, such as Vla\u010dica and Banj cove, ideal if you are traveling with children.<\/p>\n

We took advantage of the ferry waiting times to walk around the port and have a drink facing the sea. Oh, and from Supetar, the road to Bol traverses the interior of the island: it’s about a 35-40 minute drive through landscapes of olive trees, stone walls, and goats crossing the road!<\/p>\n[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=\u00bb4.24.0″ _module_preset=\u00bbdefault\u00bb global_colors_info=\u00bb{}\u00bb][et_pb_column type=\u00bb4_4″ _builder_version=\u00bb4.24.0″ _module_preset=\u00bbdefault\u00bb global_colors_info=\u00bb{}\u00bb][et_pb_text _builder_version=\u00bb4.27.6″ _module_preset=\u00bbdefault\u00bb global_colors_info=\u00bb{}\u00bb]\n

9. Lovre\u010dina Beach, the sandy beach of Bra\u010d<\/h2>\n

On an island dominated by pebbles, Lovre\u010dina (Pla\u017ea Lovre\u010dina)<\/strong> is a rarity: a real sandy bay, about 4 km from Postira, on the north coast. We went by car and were surprised by how beautiful it is: clear sand, shallow water that warms up quickly, and pine trees providing natural shade. It is perfect for families.<\/p>\n[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image src=\u00bbhttps:\/\/www.recalculandoviajes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/playa-lovrecina-bay.webp\u00bb alt=\u00bblovrecina bay beach\u00bb title_text=\u00bblovrecina bay beach\u00bb _builder_version=\u00bb4.27.6″ _module_preset=\u00bbdefault\u00bb global_colors_info=\u00bb{}\u00bb][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_text _builder_version=\u00bb4.27.6″ _module_preset=\u00bbdefault\u00bb global_colors_info=\u00bb{}\u00bb]\n

A detail that adds magic: in the same bay are the remains of an early Christian basilica and a Roman villa, so you are literally bathing next to ruins with centuries of history.<\/p>\n

\n

Tip<\/strong>: In season, there is a restaurant on the beach. However, being one of the few sandy beaches on the island, it gets crowded in August; go early.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image src=\u00bbhttps:\/\/www.recalculandoviajes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/playa-de-arena-brac-lovrecina.webp\u00bb alt=\u00bbsandy beach brac lovrecina\u00bb title_text=\u00bbsandy beach brac lovrecina\u00bb _builder_version=\u00bb4.27.6″ _module_preset=\u00bbdefault\u00bb global_colors_info=\u00bb{}\u00bb][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=\u00bb4.24.0″ _module_preset=\u00bbdefault\u00bb global_colors_info=\u00bb{}\u00bb][et_pb_column type=\u00bb4_4″ _builder_version=\u00bb4.24.0″ _module_preset=\u00bbdefault\u00bb global_colors_info=\u00bb{}\u00bb][et_pb_text _builder_version=\u00bb4.24.0″ _module_preset=\u00bbdefault\u00bb global_colors_info=\u00bb{}\u00bb]\n

Pu\u010di\u0161\u0107a, on the north coast, frequently appears on lists of the most beautiful villages in Europe and has a unique feature: here is the famous white stone of Bra\u010d<\/strong>, which was used to build Diocletian’s Palace in Split and which, as they say on the island, may have even reached the White House in Washington. The whole village shines with that light tone of the local stone.<\/p>\n

In addition, one of the last stonemason schools in Europe<\/strong> operates here, where students still work the stone with traditional tools; many travelers recommend visiting in the summer months. The fjord-shaped natural port, surrounded by stone houses, is one of those corners that justify the detour.<\/p>\n[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=\u00bb4.24.0″ _module_preset=\u00bbdefault\u00bb global_colors_info=\u00bb{}\u00bb][et_pb_column type=\u00bb4_4″ _builder_version=\u00bb4.24.0″ _module_preset=\u00bbdefault\u00bb global_colors_info=\u00bb{}\u00bb][et_pb_text _builder_version=\u00bb4.27.6″ _module_preset=\u00bbdefault\u00bb global_colors_info=\u00bb{}\u00bb]\n

11. Sumartin, the quietest corner of the island<\/h2>\n

At the eastern tip of Bra\u010d is Sumartin<\/strong>, a fishing village founded by Franciscans that sees almost no mass tourism. We arrived by car while exploring the island and found a small port, fishing boats, and a pebble beach with incredibly clear water where we spent a beautiful time, practically alone.<\/p>\n[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=\u00bb4.27.6″ _module_preset=\u00bbdefault\u00bb global_colors_info=\u00bb{}\u00bb]\n

From Sumartin, there is also the ferry to Makarska, on the mainland coast, so it is an ideal exit point if you continue your trip towards southern Croatia. In fact, very close to Makarska is one of the beaches that we liked most in the country: we tell you about it in our guide to Brela beach<\/a>.<\/p>\n[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image src=\u00bbhttps:\/\/www.recalculandoviajes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/playa-sumartin-beach.webp\u00bb alt=\u00bbsumartin beach\u00bb title_text=\u00bbsumartin beach\u00bb _builder_version=\u00bb4.27.6″ _module_preset=\u00bbdefault\u00bb global_colors_info=\u00bb{}\u00bb][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=\u00bb4.24.0″ _module_preset=\u00bbdefault\u00bb global_colors_info=\u00bb{}\u00bb][et_pb_column type=\u00bb4_4″ _builder_version=\u00bb4.24.0″ _module_preset=\u00bbdefault\u00bb global_colors_info=\u00bb{}\u00bb][et_pb_text _builder_version=\u00bb4.24.0″ _module_preset=\u00bbdefault\u00bb global_colors_info=\u00bb{}\u00bb]\n

12. Milna, the port of sailors<\/h2>\n

On the west coast of the island, Milna<\/strong> is a seafaring town with a protected bay that was a refuge for ships for centuries and today is a must-stop for sailboats cruising Dalmatia. It has a promenade facing the sea with restaurants, a Baroque church, and that relaxed nautical atmosphere that many travelers describe as the most authentic in Bra\u010d.<\/p>\n

In addition, Milna is connected to Split by fast catamaran in just 25-30 minutes, so it is an alternative for entering or leaving the island if you are traveling without a car.<\/p>\n[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=\u00bb4.24.0″ _module_preset=\u00bbdefault\u00bb global_colors_info=\u00bb{}\u00bb][et_pb_column type=\u00bb4_4″ _builder_version=\u00bb4.24.0″ _module_preset=\u00bbdefault\u00bb global_colors_info=\u00bb{}\u00bb][et_pb_text _builder_version=\u00bb4.24.0″ _module_preset=\u00bbdefault\u00bb global_colors_info=\u00bb{}\u00bb]\n

13. Lo\u017ei\u0161\u0107a, a hidden postcard of the interior<\/h2>\n

About 8 km from Milna, on the road toward the interior of the island, appears Lo\u017ei\u0161\u0107a<\/strong>, a tiny village nestled in a hollow that many travelers describe as one of the most authentic postcards of Bra\u010d. Its iconic image is the bell tower of the Church of St. John and St. Paul<\/strong>, a carved stone tower that stands out among the roofs and seems too monumental for such a small town.<\/p>\n

Don’t expect tourist services: here you find cobblestone alleys, traditional Dalmatian architecture, and a silence that is almost no longer found on the coast. It is a short stop (half an hour is enough), ideal to combine with Milna while exploring the west of the island.<\/p>\n[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=\u00bb4.24.0″ _module_preset=\u00bbdefault\u00bb global_colors_info=\u00bb{}\u00bb][et_pb_column type=\u00bb4_4″ _builder_version=\u00bb4.24.0″ _module_preset=\u00bbdefault\u00bb global_colors_info=\u00bb{}\u00bb][et_pb_text _builder_version=\u00bb4.24.0″ _module_preset=\u00bbdefault\u00bb global_colors_info=\u00bb{}\u00bb]\n

14. Grabov Rat Beach, the secret neighbor of Zlatni Rat<\/h2>\n

Very close to the most famous beach in Croatia, there is another one that almost no one names: Grabov Rat<\/strong>, another pebbly point surrounded by pine trees, west of Zlatni Rat. We discovered it while walking along the coastal path and we stayed: same turquoise sea, same pine shade, and a fraction of the people.<\/p>\n

It is our top tip for the days in July and August: if you get to Zlatni Rat and it is packed, keep walking for a few more minutes and you will find your little spot here. In our case, it was the perfect plan for reading and having mate while facing the sea.<\/p>\n[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image src=\u00bbhttps:\/\/www.recalculandoviajes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/playa-grabov-rat-brac.webp\u00bb alt=\u00bbgrabov rat beach brac\u00bb title_text=\u00bbgrabov rat beach brac\u00bb _builder_version=\u00bb4.27.6″ _module_preset=\u00bbdefault\u00bb global_colors_info=\u00bb{}\u00bb][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=\u00bb4.24.0″ _module_preset=\u00bbdefault\u00bb global_colors_info=\u00bb{}\u00bb][et_pb_column type=\u00bb4_4″ _builder_version=\u00bb4.24.0″ _module_preset=\u00bbdefault\u00bb global_colors_info=\u00bb{}\u00bb][et_pb_text _builder_version=\u00bb4.24.0″ _module_preset=\u00bbdefault\u00bb global_colors_info=\u00bb{}\u00bb]\n

15. The wines of Bra\u010d and the Stina winery<\/h2>\n

Bra\u010d is also enjoyed with a glass in hand. The island produces wines with the local varieties Plavac Mali<\/strong> (red) and Po\u0161ip<\/strong> (white), and the most famous winery is Stina<\/strong>, which operates in the building of the old wine cooperative from 1903, right in front of the port of Bol. Many travelers recommend their tastings at sunset, with the sea in the background.<\/p>\n

Our advice: even if you don’t visit the winery, try a glass of Plavac Mali at any restaurant on the island accompanying grilled octopus or a peka (the Dalmatian stew cooked under an iron bell). A winning combination, we guarantee it.<\/p>\n[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=\u00bb4.24.0″ _module_preset=\u00bbdefault\u00bb global_colors_info=\u00bb{}\u00bb][et_pb_column type=\u00bb4_4″ _builder_version=\u00bb4.24.0″ _module_preset=\u00bbdefault\u00bb global_colors_info=\u00bb{}\u00bb][et_pb_text _builder_version=\u00bb4.24.0″ _module_preset=\u00bbdefault\u00bb global_colors_info=\u00bb{}\u00bb]\n

16. \u0160krip, the oldest village to visit in Bra\u010d<\/h2>\n

To close the list, a trip back in time: \u0160krip is the oldest settlement on the island<\/strong>, with origins dating back to the Illyrians, long before the Romans. It is a tiny village in the interior, of pure stone, where many travelers highlight the Museum of the Island of Bra\u010d (including Roman remains) and the olive oil museum, which operates in an old family mill.<\/p>\n

It is about 10 minutes by car from Supetar and can be visited in a short time, so it is a perfect stop to combine with Pu\u010di\u0161\u0107a or Lovre\u010dina beach in the same day while exploring the north coast.<\/p>\n[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row column_structure=\u00bb1_3,1_3,1_3″ admin_label=\u00bbads FILA 3 imagen EN\u00bb _builder_version=\u00bb4.27.6″ _module_preset=\u00bbdefault\u00bb global_module=\u00bb16396″ saved_tabs=\u00bball\u00bb locked=\u00bboff\u00bb global_colors_info=\u00bb{}\u00bb][et_pb_column type=\u00bb1_3″ _builder_version=\u00bb4.22.2″ _module_preset=\u00bbdefault\u00bb global_colors_info=\u00bb{}\u00bb][et_pb_image src=\u00bbhttps:\/\/www.recalculandoviajes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/travel-insurance-discount-iati.webp\u00bb alt=\u00bbtravel insurance discount iati\u00bb title_text=\u00bbtravel insurance discount iati\u00bb url=\u00bbhttps:\/\/recalculandoviajes.com\/iati-seguros\u00bb url_new_window=\u00bbon\u00bb _builder_version=\u00bb4.27.6″ _module_preset=\u00bbdefault\u00bb global_colors_info=\u00bb{}\u00bb][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=\u00bb1_3″ _builder_version=\u00bb4.22.2″ _module_preset=\u00bbdefault\u00bb global_colors_info=\u00bb{}\u00bb][et_pb_image src=\u00bbhttps:\/\/www.recalculandoviajes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/booking-genius-discount.webp\u00bb alt=\u00bbbooking genius discount\u00bb title_text=\u00bbbooking genius discount\u00bb url=\u00bbhttps:\/\/recalculandoviajes.com\/booking-off\u00bb url_new_window=\u00bbon\u00bb _builder_version=\u00bb4.27.6″ _module_preset=\u00bbdefault\u00bb global_colors_info=\u00bb{}\u00bb][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=\u00bb1_3″ _builder_version=\u00bb4.22.2″ _module_preset=\u00bbdefault\u00bb global_colors_info=\u00bb{}\u00bb][et_pb_image src=\u00bbhttps:\/\/recalculandoviajes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/internet-esim-Holafly-OFF.jpg\u00bb alt=\u00bbInternet eSIM – Holafly Discount\u00bb title_text=\u00bbInternet eSIM – Holafly Discount\u00bb url=\u00bbhttps:\/\/recalculandoviajes.com\/holafly-off\u00bb url_new_window=\u00bbon\u00bb _builder_version=\u00bb4.27.6″ _module_preset=\u00bbdefault\u00bb global_colors_info=\u00bb{}\u00bb][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=\u00bb4.24.0″ _module_preset=\u00bbdefault\u00bb global_colors_info=\u00bb{}\u00bb][et_pb_column type=\u00bb4_4″ _builder_version=\u00bb4.24.0″ _module_preset=\u00bbdefault\u00bb global_colors_info=\u00bb{}\u00bb][et_pb_text _builder_version=\u00bb4.27.6″ _module_preset=\u00bbdefault\u00bb global_colors_info=\u00bb{}\u00bb]\n
