Zlatni rat is one of the most beautiful beaches of the Old Continent and its beauty and elegance are a symbol not only of Brač Island, but also of Croatia. It was formed by deposition of fine golden pebbles around the underwater reef, stretching out like a tongue, and down to a depth of 500 m. Under the influence of winds, waves and currents the tip of Zlatni Rat constantly changes shape, always creating a different and interesting vision. Zlatni Rat is a protected natural area and the favourite place of surfers and kite-surfers from all over the world. It is only 2 km away from the village of Bol on the southern side of Brač Island, under Vidova Gora, the highest peak of the Adriatic islands. Bol fascinates with scents of pine trees, clean sea and cultural sites such as the Dominican monastery and the parish church.
