BASIC INFORMATION AND LOCATION

Sumartin is the youngest and easternmost town on the island of Brač. A quiet fishing village connected by a ferry line to Makarska on the mainland, which runs 5 times a day in the summer. Today, Sumartin, with its 618 inhabitants, is, along with Supetar and Bol, the gateway to Brač due to its ferry port. The economy is based on olive growing, viticulture, fishing and tourism. In addition to Makarska and Split, or Supetar, Sumartin can also be reached in the summer via Brač airport.


CULTURE, HISTORY AND ATTRACTIONS

The port of Sumartin was originally called Vrhbrač, and was founded by refugees from the Makarska Littoral who landed there in 1646. The foundations of the Franciscan monastery, on the site of the medieval church of St. Martin, after which Sumartin was named, were laid in 1747 by the famous Dalmatian poet, Fra Andrija Kačić-Miošić. It is also worth visiting the beautifully decorated monastery museum, where valuable Venetian canvases, various metal objects and a hand-made floor plan of the monastery from the 18th century are exhibited.
