Placed on the southern part of the island of Brac, it is one of the most famous tourist destinations at the Adriatic coast. East and west of Bol, beautiful beaches are spread along the shore, the most famous and, according to many tourists, the most beautiful among them is Zlatni Rat.

Due to its specific location, Zlatni Rat is of special interest for surfers and swimmers. It is situated between the islands of Brac and Hvar, where the air circulation, wind and waves are stronger. That pebbled cape is a unique phenomenon, stretched towards the sea as a tongue, moving on one side or the other, depending on the direction of the wind and the waves. Therefore, many wind-surfing schools are open for amateurs, while experienced surfers can rent equipment for sailing. Tourists can enjoy swimming in abundance of big foamy waves.

Bol has preserved a long tradition of the high quality wine production (the famous Plavac). There is the first Dalmatian Winemaking Association, founded in 1903 - a wine cellar with the capacity of 150 wagons. There are many taverns where you can taste homemade food and choose among a rich range of wines.

West of Bol, above the village Murvica in Drakonjina (Zmajeva) cave, you can see reliefs of great artistic value, carved in stone (the relief of a dragon and other cult characters). An excursion to Vidova Gora is very attractive and there one can enjoy the beautiful view of the surrounding islands. Not far from Bol there is one of the most appalling resorts of Brac - Blaca.

Your best choice is to accept an organized one-day excursions to the island of Brac, the place Bol, the beach Zlatni Rat, with an old sailing-boat!

Have a good day and a pleasant company!
