Sutivan is located on the northern side of the island
of Brac, opposite Split. It is 7 kilometers away from Supetar, and it has
around 640 inhabitants, mostly living from tourism, growing olives and
vineyards. The settlement was founded in the 15th century on the location where
there was a shrine of St Ivan – and the name of the settlement derived from the
name of the shrine. The church of St Rok is on the cemetery, and was built in
1635. Sutivan is well known for its beautiful beaches, hiking paths and cycling
paths, and sport fields. In this lovely village guests can find accommodation
in private villas, apartments and rooms, and kind hosts will offer you local
home-made specialties. Every year in july there is a sport event called «Vanka
regula» which traslates as «out of rules». It is a festival of extreme sports
and it is interesting to both contestants and audience – the response is always
very big. We recommend you to visit other places on this magnificent island – Supetar,
Sumartin, Splitska, Selca, Postira, Povlja, Pucisca, Milna, Bol,
Mirca, Murvica and Nerezisca.
