Brela

Brela, 14km northwest of Makarska, is surrounded by the longest and loveliest coastline in Dalmatia. Six kilometers of pebble beaches curve around coves thickly forested with pine trees, largely unmarred by ugly tourist developments. A shady promenade winds around the coves, the sea is crystal clear and there are convenient outdoor showers on some beaches. Beaches and coves are on both sides of the town but the longest stretch is the 4km coast west of the town center. The settlement consists of the older part (Gornja Brela) near the old road in the hill, and the newer part located on the coast (Donja Brela).

In Brela woods and beaches are bathed in brilliant sunshine. The breeze brings the scent of the sea and the odor of aromatic herbs is felt in the air. Seagulls cries are mixed with singing of birds. In 1968 Brela was crowned as "Champion of the Adriatic" for high achievements in tourist activity. The place is situated by the sea shore, between Biokovo mountain and the island of Brac. Brela is unique in its beauty with marvelous beaches, pine woods, crystal blue sea, Mediterranean climate, sport grounds, marina, ecological surrounding and relaxing peace, top quality service in luxury hotels and private accommodation.

Brela... clear sea, sun,... for all to enjoy. Waves are rushing on golden beaches, millions of pine needles fall softly to the ground... Natural heritage: Oak-tree at Soline, natural monument, a thousand years old with a huge crown; Biokovo mountain - natural park with several horticultural monuments (wild vegetation, geomorphological and botanical locations), panoramic view - magnificent and gorgeous jewel.

The wind blows up the sails, windsurfs are gliding and skis are competing with the white wakes of the ship. The golden pebbles are mixed with the jewels of the bay....Branches of centennial pines hide the hotels like velvet curtains, covering the cliffs like big parasols...colors, flowers and smells are making typical atmosphere of the Mediterranean.

There is a mountain above Brela that the stars touch at night. It is a place where winds tell stories, where pine needles and flowers knit the veil around houses and restaurants and joy is competing with relaxation in the tranquility of the nature. Brela is a jewel in untouched nature. Brela is a luxury of vegetation, sun and sea. Everything creates a special feeling and relation to Brela.
