Susak je jedinstveni otok na Jadranu kako po svom nastanku tako i po svom izgledu.Otok se na pomorskim kartama pojavljuje vrlo rano, prvo pod romanskim nazivom Sansacus ili Sansegus. Prvi spomen otoka u pisanim izvorima seže u sredinu 9. stoljeća, kada su se u njegovom akvatoriju sukobili Saraceni i Mlečani.Najviše stanovnika živi na otoku Susku nakon završetka II. svjetskog rata. Od 1985. godine na Susku se slavi Dan iseljenika, zadnje nedjelje u mjesecu srpnju.Prvo naselje, čiji počeci sežu u rimsko vrijeme, nastalo je na plodnoj visoravni i naziva se Gornje selo, dok je Donje selo, smješteno u luci, novijeg datuma, izgrađeno u vrijeme najvećeg procvata vinogradarstva krajem 19. stoljeća.Zbog svoje izoliranosti, Susak je sačuvao svoj arhaičan govor (zaštićen kao pokretno kulturno dobro), specifične običaje i slikovitu nošnju.

We visited Susak with some pals of mine and we painted the town. Everything was superfun and the stops at the light houses to admire the views from the top were something else. I recommend this town to all, looking to have fun.

Susak is a very charming town. I loved the churches. The stillness and quietness inside was ideal for praying and enjoying the silence. I left feeling like a new man.

My girlfriend and I stayed in this town for a month and we have never forgotten the experience. We really loved the hotels that we were staying in that were located right next to the sea. It was nice to stargaze at night and enjoy the cool breezes.

The history of this Island dates back to the 9th Century. It is really isolated, which I found to be a good thing since its beauty has been preserved very well. I loved their vineyards. They were marvelous

This Island's history was so fascinating. I enjoyed swimming in its waters and sunbathing on its beaches. The surrounding was so quiet and peaceful. This island is so secluded with little population.

I noticed that this location has a distinctive and authentic culture that they have preserved over the years. First the archaic speech, which they have maintained due to their isolation, and cultural costumes worn during festivals. It was great experiencing the culture of the people.
