It is believed that the beautiful town of Pelegrin once stood in the bay of Vruja near Brela, until the day it mysteriously sank. There are quite a few stories related to this legend, but a more famous one says that every year, at exactly midnight on Christmas Day, a carriage with two white horses at full gallop appears in Vruja, carrying a princes and a prince.
