Brac and the Golden Horn

The Golden Horn is probably the most spectacular of Croatia’s beaches. It is just in front of the small village named Bol on the island of Brac. It is a vast, golden pebble beach. Almost 580 yards long, it is known as the ” “Zlatni Rat” (Golden Horn).

The beach has a unique shape, like a white tongue stretched into the sea. It is unique also for the fact that it changes shape and position, depending on the wind.

The setting is sublime – the mountains over the beach, blue clear water on your left and right, the sound of the waves on the pebbles, a gentle breeze
