    “In Povlja selbst gibt es 2 Lebensmittelgeschäfte, gute Restaurants und Café’s. Es ist ein kleines, beschauliches Fischerdorf. Es gibt auf der Insel viele, freie Strände, welche auch gut mit Hund besucht werden können.”

    “Wir (Familie mit 2 Kindern und Hund) waren 2 Wochen im August in der Nähe von Povlja in dem wunderschönen Ferienhaus Zana. Dieser Ort befindet sich auf der ruhigen Seite der Insel und hat ein paar kleine Restaurants die wir mehrmals besucht haben. Wir müssen dann auch zugeben das wir nirgendwo schlecht gegessen haben! Das Essen war gut, Bedienung sehr bemüht und zuvorkommend. Es gibt 2 kleine Läden in denen man alles nötige bekommt. Ebenso gibt es mehrere sehr schöne Strände in Povlja die wir auch ein paar mal mit Hund besucht haben. Das Preisniveau in den Restaurants is bedeutend niedriger als in den Stätten Bol en Supetar und sicher nicht schlechter.”

    “Das kleine Hafenstädchen ist mit Kneipen zu gepflastert, wie überall in Kroatien.
    Uns ein bisschen zu viel. Die anderen Geschäfte haben da leider kein Platz mehr, was uns mal zum bummeln (und wenn es nur mal Geschäfte gewesen wären) gefehlt hat.
    Leider sehr langweilig. Die Einkaufmöglichkeiten sind zwar vorhanden, aber Obst und
    Gemüse sind nicht das was in Deutschland als Standard gilt, teilweise schlecht und noch nicht reif.

    Wir fahren schon über 10 Jahre nach Kroatien. Leider stellten wir wieder fest, das die Verschmutzung durch angetriebenen Müll immer mehr wird, uns sehr unverständlich, wenn man auf den Tourismus angewiesen ist. Da sollte sich mal schleunigst was ändern, das verschandelt die ganze wunderschöne Natur.”

This is how holiday rental owners described Povlja

Many words have been said already about the beauty of the town Povlja and the island of Brac.

Besides this, the beauty of this „Paradise on earth“ has been described in many books, it has been presented in many art paintings, not to mention that it was captured in countless ...

"God wanted to perfect his creation and used tears, stars and the breath of the sea to create the island Brac'' – these are the words of a writer, captured a long time by the beauty of this unique, natural and ecologic piece of land in the modern world.

Long beaches, rocky mountains rising out of the sea, hot summers, untouched nature and unique towns and monuments converted many earlier tourists into life-long fans of the island Brac and Povlja.

This probably is the origin of the saying that claims that one visits the island Brac and Povlja by accident only for the first time.

Each following visit is simply the result of the diversity, uniqueness of this island and the hospitality of all its inhabitants...

Only those, who visited this pearl in the Mediterranean will perceive our words as excessive.

But in order to remove any possible doubt into these words, you must come and visit Povlja and the island Brac on your own.

Povlja is located on the north-eastern side of island Brac, in one of the most beautiful bays of the island.

Povlja is a small town, with only three hundred population and the island Brac is surely one of the most beautiful ones on our coast, an untouched pearl of the Adriatic sea.

The majority of islanders in both Povlja and Brac in general are occupied with olives, wines and fishing.

Crystal clear and clean seawater, fresh air, countless bays and long promenades and walking paths along the sea make Povlja an ideal holiday resort for a relaxing vacation on island Brac.

In Povlja are several archaeological sites from ancient times and some valuable buildings from the Middle ages period, like remains of an early Christian basilica from the 05th century, the octagonal baptistery with a dome, parts of the Benedictine monastery and defense towers.

Povlja is surrounded by many bays with different types of beaches and the center of the town also offers safe berth in the little port.

Fishing and production of natural food-stuff represent a guarantee that you will also enjoy the offered food here, whereas the hospitality of your hosts will make your vacation in Povlja an unforgettable one.

For true lovers of nature, we recommend to come to Brac and Povlja in May and June, that is the time when sage and lavender are in full blossom and the entire island is covered by their unique scent.

September and October are also recommended periods of the year because the days are warm, the sea is pleasant to swim and the winter seems so far away.

Povlja is a small charming tourist village placed in a deep bay on the north-east side of the island of Brac, one of the prettiest and the biggest Croatian Islands. It was for a century’s happy home for olive-groves, fishermen and stonecutters.

very long, but also treasures a variety of intact pebble beaches, among which Travna, Tićja Luka and Tatinja are the best known. Unique landscape, untouched nature and exceptionally clear sea water makes Povlja ideal place for family holiday. Besides swimming, hiking and long walks, you have a possibility of snorkeling, diving, canoeing, or renting a boat and discovering more hidden treasures of the island. If you are looking for a cultural heritage, you have to visit the oldest sacral building on the island, an early Christian Basilica dating back to 6.th century AD.

Once you are in Povlja, do not forget to visit desert Blaca , mountain Vidova Gora, Dol and finally Bol with a fabulous pebbled beaches among which the most famous is ZLATNI RAT. It has been declared as one of the most beautiful beaches in the world.

In 2003 Povlja was declared as the most beautiful little tourist town in Split & Dalmatian County.

It is very important that Brač is the best connected Dalmatian island with the mainland. So you can easily reach Povlja from Split via Supetar by ferry (the voyage takes about 50 min., then drive by car another 42 km) and from Makarska by ferry via Sumartin (the voyage takes about 50 min. then drive by car another 9 km).

today. These Povljans still grow olives, fish and make wine just as their ancestors did for so many centuries before but they see their future in tourism. Today the main industries in Povlja are fishing, quarrying, olive growing and, of course, tourism.
