Supetar, the capital and largest town of the Adriatic island of Vis in southern Croatia, is situated in the "Pearl of the Mediterranean". This small town by the mountains and the sea is a blend of ancient Greek, Roman and Venetian history, with stone streets, medieval churches and red-tiled houses in the old town. Just 3 kilometers from the town, Stiniva Beach was named one of the most beautiful beaches in the world by National Geographic, with its stunning arched sea gates and turquoise waters. As the economic and cultural center of the island of Vis, Supetar is also known for its excellent wines (such as the local specialty Vugava white) and fresh seafood, making it an ideal base for exploring the caves of the surrounding uninhabited islands and sampling Dalmatian flavors. Convenient ferry connections to mainland cities such as Split attract travelers seeking tranquility and natural beauty.
