The tranquility of those moments will allow for a deeper connection with the site.

Selca and Brač have a lot to offer! Very close to the monument, you can explore the charming village center with its impressive church. I also suggest visiting other gems of Brač, such as Zlatni Rat Beach in Bol, the stone quarries of Pučišća, or even taking an excursion to Blaca Monastery.
