MAESTRAL

The area around Sutivan, a small town on the north-western coast of Brač, features some distinctive natural and cultural landmarks: the underwater site of an antiquity shipwreck with sarcophagi not far from the sandy cove of Likva, an important example of traditional dry stone walls, a limekiln on Timunić Beach, and Vela Lokva – the site where the inhabitants of Sutivan used to come for water during droughts. The church above Sutivan, known for its votive gifts and 19th-century model ships, is particularly interesting. It was built in 1623 and dedicated to St. Rochus for protection against the plague. Just a few steps from the church, there is the old local cemetery, which is unique on the island because of its underground tomb complex known as the Catacombs.
