What travelers are saying
- LisaTorquay, UK136 contributionsWe attended this as part of an excusion with the dioklo adventure in September 2023. The guide was so lovely and kind straight off the bat.
We drove to Biokovo nature park, where he pulled over next to an amazing view and said we could get out to take pictures.
We stopped to see the wild horses and got out to pet them as they came over. They were so lovely and one mama had her foal with her. We saw cows, too, walking down the valleys and grazing.
This is a truly vast and beautiful nature park. There are plenty of stopping places and picnic spots with unforgettable views.Written September 27, 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

Our guide drove us up the mountain in a 4x4, frequently stopping at beauty spots along the way and telling us little facts about how high we currently were on the mountain.
We stopped for a picnic and had some drinks and conversation, it was beautiful up there. The mountains, trees, and nature were so serene.
Then we went to the highest point, Sv.Jure. when we reached the top, where we got out, took in the marvellouss view and walked up to see the little chapel at the top. You are only allowed 20 minutes at the top as the carpark is very small and it's to keep people moving, which we thought was great.
It felt like we were on top of the world. The view was phenomenal. Then we decended back down the mountains, taking in the views and returned.
I would rate this 10/10. I would definitely do it again! Thank you to all involved.Written September 27, 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

The view from the glass bridge is spectacular. Was there on a clear sky day and it is breathtaking to look down several hundred meters like that.Written June 24, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- juanita4252Stoke-on-Trent, UK96 contributionsIgor the boat owner approached us at the beach - very pleasant, informative & respectful - so we decided to book a trip to Hvar & Brac.
We arrived early as we wanted a table in shade - very efficient passenger ‘placement’ as tables arranged for 6 people & that is yours for the entire trip - we were with a lovely couple from Bosnia, right next to the bar area.
The excursion was full - get on at the main harbour for better ‘choice’ of seats. Passengers picked up at ‘Places’ harbour had to sit up on top deck in full sun all day.
Pleasant voyage across to Hvar - the gigantic grill was fired up & the fresh fish & chicken was expertly cooked ready for lunch. Coffee & schapps served at the table - both incredibly strong.
1 hour in Jelsa on Hvar - beautiful town - back for lunch on board - efficient service with water/wine/Fanta. Really great mackerel & chicken - the seagulls knew!
4 hours in Bol - explored Zlatni Rat beach & the town - beautiful location.
Return journey, very busy bar & an eclectic mix of 80s pop & Europop tunes played loudly - party atmosphere that you have to go with!
We felt it was worth the €50 each.Written August 19, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

Although not Catholic the place was so peaceful & allowed you time to sit quietly & reflect on life. Beautiful setting & a lovely walk in the woods where stone carvings tell the Easter story.Written July 10, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- WarrenpointMermaidWarrenpoint, UK702 contributionsA lovely walk that is quickly uphill once you get started, but not too strenuous. However, you do need to be careful where you step, as it’s rocky with gnarly roots in places. You can take some really beautiful photos from most points on the walk. Well worth doing.Written July 1, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- Mar979189 contributionsNice walk through the park until de beach. The view of Nugal beach is beautiful especially from the hill. It is a pebble beach, 3/4 nudist beach, the rest of it is for tourists. There is a little tree park with shadow and sitting benches that is usually used by nudists.Written July 10, 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- rubibucoPrague, Czech Republic51 contributionsYou get there by passing the Hotel Osejava, oldest one in Makarska. I climbed the pretty steep path, and walked almost to the Nugal Beach (warning: it's a "FKK" - nude beach). On the top is a meteorological station. It was planned to start a cable car to Mt Biokovo from here, but until now these plans still haven't been realised. Still, it's a nice place to have a quiet afternoon in the shade and watch the sunset from hereWritten June 21, 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Andrew McCallumMilan, Italy86 contributionsIn one old book, I have read about this square looked on the day the monument was placed and solemnly opened for the public - and when I looked at it, I tried to imagine that scene in my head. Austrians have forbidden the plates with coats of arms - they were placed only later. Now it really looks beautiful.Written June 30, 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.

- AudunBergen, Norway16 contributionsA small, but nice collection of sea shells, from around the world, as well as of the nearby ocean.The museum is located inside a franciskan monestry.
We were met by an elderly woman who communicated fairly well in english.Written October 12, 2019This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
