BOBOVISCA

> back to island map

North of Milna, where the coastal road cuts inland through the hills, you will find the beautiful villages of Bobovisca and Lozisca. Founded in the hills above the sea many hundreds of years ago they are excellent examples of defensive towns strategically positioned to allow the islanders refuge from pirate invasions on the coast below.

By the end of the eighteenth century this threat had begun to wane and a small settlement was able to form on the shoreline below. The village of Bobovisca na Moru, as it came to be known, was built around two deep bays to provide shelter for the fishermen in the local area. In recent years these natural attributes, together with its beautiful architecture, have made it very popular with sailors and it provides a haven for yachts in the summer.

For those staying in the village there are various cafes in which to while away the afternoon. There is also a small path that winds through the centre and out along the sides of the bay. On this path you will find many places to stop off and swim in complete solitude. In the evening this is the place to come for magnificent sunsets over the island of Solta.
