7 Reasons Why Bol Might Be Your Dream Destination

By MedSailors Crew published on 20 June 2017

Bol is a charming town on the beautiful Croatian island of Brač, which lies just off the coast of Split in the Mediterranean Sea. We always struggle to pick favourites here at MedSailors HQ, but Bol has to be one of our favourite destinations on our Croatia Discovery itinerary, and here’s why!


Sail to see Croatia's wonderful islands - Best places to visit

You’ll Never Run Out of Things to Do

There are so many activities to join in with, you’ll run out of time before you run out of new things to try. You can hike, windsurf, paddle board, scuba dive, kite surf, go quad biking, water ski, free climb and *takes a breath* even go on a banana boat!

Enjoy Famous Beaches on Your Croatia Discovery Adventure

If you feel like taking it easy, why not lounge on the beach with a cooling cocktail? Zlatni Rat Beach consistently features on lists of the very best beaches in the entire world. And yes, it’s really that special!

Learn About the Island’s Rich History

Experts can’t decide whether Dragon’s Cave dates back to the 4th or the 15th century, but regardless, it’s impressive and well worth a visit if you don’t mind a challenging hike. On your tour you’ll hear lots about Slavic history, and even a few curious conspiracy theories!

Sample Local Wines on Your MedSailors Adventure

When you’re so close to one of Croatia’s finest wineries it makes sense to sample some local wine, right?

Stroll Along the Prom

Lined with pine trees providing some shade from the warm Mediterranean sunshine, a lovely stroll along the prom with an ice cream is always a good idea.

Treat Yourself

Bol is home to one of the largest wellness centres in Croatia, so why not book yourself in for a luxurious treatment? We highly recommend their olive oil facials!

The Delicious Menus

Packed full of classic Mediterranean dishes, Bol’s restaurant menus contain recipes made with ultra-fresh, flavourful ingredients. Indulge in some fresh octopus and if you’re up for trying something a bit different, order vitalac, which is an authentic dish from Brač.
