Sumartin - island Brac

Tourist destination info Sumartin - island Brac

Sumartin is a small town on the easternmost cape on Brač island. It was founded in 1645 by Dalmatian pilgrims who were trying to escape the Turks and it is interesting that, to this day, residents of Sumartin speak with a different dialect than the rest of the island towns. The main economic branches are fishing, maritime activities, shipbuilding, olive growing and tourism. The town is marked by the Franciscan monastery and church of St. Martin which is a sight to be seen by all history lovers. Because of its port, Sumartin represents the gate to Brač. Beautiful beaches and the crystal clear sea are irresistible to all visitors, while beautiful nature and rich culinary offer are a guarantee of an unforgettable vacation. In the near vicinity of Sumartin you can find several peaceful hidden bays (Rasotica, Zukovik, Radovanja, Studena, Zvirje and Spilice) with sand and pebble beaches where everyone can find a quiet corner for themselves. The town is perfect for a peaceful vacation away from city crowds. As in all Dalmatian towns, Sumartin hosts several summer events, the most popular of which is the Lady of the Angels festivity held on August 2nd. Those who enjoy dalmatian cooking and island specialties can visit restaurants “Bernardo” and “Dalmatino”. While in Sumartin, do not miss the opportunity to visit Bol on the island and Split and Omiš on the mainland.

Must see places

Bol is the oldest town on the coast of Brač. It is rich in long sand and pebble beaches which stretch for 10km. It is home of one of the most beautiful beaches on the Adriatic – Zlatni Rat. Visit some of the town’s historical monuments such as: Roman water collection mechanism, tombstones and stelae, early Christian sarcophagus, pre-Roman church of St. John and Tudor, Baroque Renaissance palace, bishop’s residence, church of Our Lady of Mercy and get acquainted with at least a small piece of the town’s history.

Split is one of the best known and most visited tourist destinations in Croatia and the second largest city in the country.  It is an eternally young city which lives with a slow pace that is very easy to get accustomed to. This city is rich in historical monuments of which we recommend the following: Diocletian’s palace (the heart of the city), the Iron Gate, the statue of bishop Gregory of Nin, the cathedral of St. Duje, church of St. Francis, cathedral of St. Peter, the main court, city basement, St. Anne’s monastery and many others.

Omiš is a small Mediterranean town located at the mouth of the river Cetina. Of its historical characteristics, we emphasize the following: the fortresses Mirabela and Fortica, parish church of St. Michael, Franciscan monastery, churches of St. Peter, Holy Spirit, the Illyrian seminary, old cemetery, medieval town center, pole of shame and the old town lodge. Sports fans can take part in river rafting on the Cetina, free climbing, wind surfing, swimming marathon, beach volleyball and other activities.

      Good for families with kids.
      Peaceful location, quiet during the day and night. Still well equipped with supermarket, couple restaurants (Konoba Top the best, cafes. Boat hire possible, marvelous trips around the shore. Small bays with restaurants and private beaches. 20 minutes by boat to Bol if you look for some fun.
      If you do not have your pool, your kids might get bored soon.

      Csodálatos
      A szállás csodálatos helyen, közvetlenül a tengerparton található. A tulajdonosok úgy tervezték, hogy a két egyszerre jelen lévő pár egymás nyugalmát ne zavarja. Minden este a teraszról néztük a csodálatos naplementét, ahogy alábukik Rogoznica mögött. Az elmúlt évek legjobb nyaralását töltöttük el itt. Házigazdáink kedvessége és segítőkészsége nélkül ez biztosan nem valósulhatott volna meg. Köszönjük Mirjana és Alex! Valamikor visszajövünk!
      Nem volt ilyen, illetve esetleg, ha szóltak volna a delfinnek, hogy másnap jöjjön vissza a testvéreivel, akkor 200%-ra emelkedett volna a tetszési indexük. :))

      Entspannung pur
      Als Ruhesuchende haben wir uns hier absolut richtig aufgehoben gefühlt. Die Lage, das Appartment, den Pool und den eigenen Meereszigang haben wir absolut genossen. Top Vermieterin. Die Fahrt zum Haus war am Anfang gewöhnungsbedürftig und abenteuerlich, aber daran hatten wir uns schnell gewöhnt. Das WLAN ist sehr langsam und nicht richtig nutzbar, aber da lagen jetzt nicht unsere Prioritäten im Urlaub. Alles zusammen gesehen, können wir die Unterkunft absolut empfehlen und wir würden jederzeit gerne wieder dahin fahren.

      Very nice German-speaking owner family
      Equipment upscale, right by the sea. The approach in the whole area is adventurous: narrow, steep, winding path that made us sweat at the beginning. Internet is sufficient in the room but hardly any reception on the terrace. Compared to other apartments in the neighborhood (we have extended our trip by 4 days in the not very far away apartment) nothing is missing. But you have to know that shopping and dining are further away (opposite island), so that you have to rely on a car.

      Great place for relaxing holidays
      The apartment was very stylish, clean and well equipped. Small details e.g.a fresh kitchen sponge and the availability of more than one towel per person showed the thoughtfulness of the owners. The pool area was also great. Although the owners live in this place, they totally respect the privacy of their guests and gave very helpful information and recommondations.
      The nearby village is not really in walking distance. The space directly at the seaside is limited, nevertheless the access of the water is convinient and without too many sea urchins.
