Famous as the island of the Illyrian queen Teuta and the location of Emperor Diocletian’s fishpond, the island of Šolta was also an inspiration to great Croatian poets, Marko Marulić and Petar Hektorović.
Here, pristine nature lives in harmony with meditative architecture, and the eight settlements on the island are waiting for you with many interesting stories and experiences that will make your holiday one to remember. The small fishing village of Maslinica will thrill you with the castle of the noble Marchi family and picturesque stone houses. The silence and green beauty of the “deaf” Nečujam bay will transport you into a completely different dimension.
When you want to feel like the king on top of a hill, or island rather, walk to Vela Straža, the highest peak on the island, or drive along the roads of Šolta and treat yourself to medicinal honey, authentic local olive oil or top-quality red wine.
