A trip with my family was the only thing we were thinking for the summer and when i saw the guide and looked into it, the Island of Brac was our destination. The Sutivan Nature Park was awesome and we enjoyed the hiking tour around the trails. Beautiful landscapes to view and wonderful place to visit.

We had an amazing three day guide that was helpful and we had a chance to visit most of locations on our tour at Brac Island. We loved our trip on the first day especially biking through the peek as we enjoyed the beautiful views of the Island.We also walked barefoot on the pebble sand beach and even swam in the mesmerising blue waters. We are glad to follow the guide given.

A stay at the Prja Bay especially seating at stone tables was an awesome experience. During summer, we would stay at the benches of the pine trees that provide shades and cool refreshing air. Thanks to the good guide for leading us to this location.
