A few weeks ago I have been traveling to Croatia with two friends of mine. We stayed at the island Brác for a week. Firstly we drove to Split, which is one of the biggest cities of Croatia, and from there we went by ferry. After one hour across the stormy sea we've finally arrived at Brác.
With an area of 396 square kilometers it is the third largest island in the Adriatic Sea. The island's tallest mountain stands at 780m. The island has a population of 13,956. Bol Airport on Brác is the largest airport of all islands surrounding Split.
The island is administratively divided into one city and seven municipalities, including the twenty-two settlements. The division into eight municipalities and cities happened after the reorganization of Croatia following Croatian independence in 1991. Before that, Brác was a single municipality in Yugoslavia with Supetar as the seat of the municipality.
The city Supetar with of a population of 3,300 inhabitants is the largest city on the island and it is also the place where we resided for that week.
