Lighthouse Sv. Ivan

Roaring Waves and a Brave Captain

Lighthouses are fascinating places, not just because of their function, but also because of their solitude. Living in a lighthouse may seem as an interesting feat, but it is not always quiet, relaxing and simple.

Gastronomic Connections on Šolta Island

There are three things connecting the village of Maslinica and Šešula bay on the island of Šolta: the sea, the road and excellent food. Šešula bay hides one of the best restaurants in the area, which is called Šišmiš. Its special offer proved to be so attractive to visitors, which is why another restaurant, called Šakajet, was opened in Maslinica. The names of both restaurants designate the animal “bat”.
