Croatian Villas on the Island of Brac

Brac is the largest of the Central Dalmatian islands and also one of the most popular for holidays in villas in Croatia. It is easy to get to the island of Brac from mainland Croatia by taking a ferry from either Split or Makarska or there is an airport in Bol with flights from a range of destinations.

Brac is famous for two things, the first being its quarries which produce a white stone that was used to build the Diocletian’s Palace in Split and also the White House in Washington DC! The other is Zlatni Rat in Bol on the south coast of the island which is one of the most beautiful beaches in the Adriatic and is often used in posters promoting Croatia. Find holiday rentals in Croatia and discover the island of Brac.

The town of Bol on the island of Brac is one of the most popular places to stay in Croatia holiday apartments and is an attractive place with the location of the best beach on the island, Zlatni Rat, popular with both swimmers and windsurfers. There is a long promenade in Bol between the old town and the beach and the town is well-equipped for holidaymakers with a large range of holiday homes in Croatia. The other main town on Brac is Supetar which is popular with families with its nice streets, main square and pebbly beaches. For a relaxing way to spend an afternoon, why not drive around the stone villages of the area whilst on holiday in villas in Croatia on the island of Brac.

During the summer, there are lots of folk festivals and cultural events that take place in Brac including the procession celebrating St. Vid on Vidova Gora and Vanka Regule Festival in Sutivan. Vanka Regule means without rules and the festival includes extreme sports competitions. As well as plenty of Croatian cultural offerings, there is plenty of nightlife on Brac and often music concerts take place. If the weather is a little cloudy the Galerija Branislav Deskovic on the seafront at Bol is worth a visit as it has about 300 paintings and sculptures from modern Croatian artists.
