Brac yacht charters - Island Zlatni Rat beach

Dominican Monastery

Built on the remains of an Episcopal palace in the heart of Bol, Island Brac’s Dominican Monastery was one of the area’s first examples of early Christian architecture. Wander through its halls, and visitors will find a picturesque garden and the monastery’s very own art gallery, complete with paintings like “Madona with Child and Saints” by Tintoretto and notable additions from the Croatian Baroque period. Likewise, the locale’s in-house museum holds religious archives, historical robes, stone monuments, and archeological ruins; all further evidence of the monastery’s critical part in Croatian history.

Hermitage Blaca

Resting beneath Vidova Gora’s plentiful caves, on the southern side of the island, visitors will come across Hermitage Blaca – a community of hermitic monasteries stemming from the Renaissance period. First founded in the mid-1500s by two Glagolitic monks who made a home for themselves in the Ljubitovica cave, Hermitage Blaca reached its prime in the 18th and 19th centuries; becoming known for their production of wine, honey, and olives, among other things. Today, this historical location has been transformed into a museum and observatory. Perched high on a cliff, it is still accessible only by foot, staying true to its inherent history.

Vidova Gora

As the highest mountain in all of Croatia, Vidova Gora is Island Brac’s most impressive natural feature. Named after the Church of St. Vid, the ruins of which are now near the peak, the mountain was once the site of Illyrian fortresses. Today, Vidova Gora has become one of the most popular attractions on the island, and visitors will even find a few tables and a pub designed to give them a place to enjoy its vast views below. Wander down its towering cliffs, and explorers will come across verdant valleys, vineyards, and gravel beaches below; the typical landscape of Island Brac. For all the hikers in your yacht charter party, a visit to Vidova Gora will provide great exercise and unparalleled views from the top.

Dragon’s Cave

Just outside the quaint village of Murvica, Dragon’s Cave, a historic temple and dwelling place for Glagolitic priests, is one of the island’s most treasured archeological haunts. Paying homage to Glagolitic friars from the 15th century, this cave houses reliefs of Madonna angels, moons, dragons, and more carved into the rock of the cliff. While scientists have yet to fully understand the meaning behind the carvings, they believe that it contains elements of the spirituality of the people who lived there during that time: both Christian iconography and Slavic mythology.
