Sumpetar

Sumpetar is a small tourist village located on the western part of the Omiš Riviera. It is located 6 km west of Omiš, in the direction of Split. From Sumpeter, you can easily get to Omiš and Split (20 km to the west), using numerous local buses or with your own car.

Sumpetar has a beautiful harbor where many old wooden converted sailing ships are located, which today are primarily used for tourism, and in the past they were mainly used as merchant and cargo ships.

Sumpetar and the neighboring towns of Bajnica and Krilo Jesenica have a very long tradition of sailing and shipbuilding that has been preserved to this day - this area is the center of the largest tourist fleet of sailing ships on the Adriatic.

Here you will not find yachts and similar modern ships, only old wooden sailing ships renovated to provide luxury and an unforgettable experience of the Adriatic Sea

It is important to note that, in the last few years, some owners have turned to a new trend in cruising, namely small modern luxury cruisers (25-40 meters), made primarily of steel.

Sumpetar lies in a small bay, protected from the north wind (bore) and south wind (juga), and open to the winds of the western directions (tramuntana, lebić and mistral).

Sumpetar is located along the main road (Adriatic Highway), so families with small children should be careful about it.

There are some houses that are located under the highway, so there is no need to cross it when going to the sea - every house in our offer has this information clearly indicated, so please check it before making the final decision on the reservation.

Postoji nekoliko šljunčanih plaža u Sumpetru, nekoliko kafića i tri restorana/konobe . Dvije trgovine nude sve potrebne stvari koje će vam trebati tijekom svog boravka, a za veću ponude ćete morati voziti do obližnjeg Omiša ili Splita.

Due to the proximity of the cities of Omiš, Split and Makarska, visitors can enjoy numerous forms of active vacation such as rafting, free climbing, windsurfing or check out the nightlife in these dynamic tourist centers.

Above Sumpeter, under the high mountains, you will find several ancient sites such as churches, cemeteries, the old villages of Zeljovici and Krug, which bear witness to the thousand-year long history of the Croatian people in this area, which make Sumpeter one of the most important parts of Croatian history.

It was once an important part of the ancient Polish Republic, and some even say that it is the area where Croats first came to the sea, 14 centuries ago.

Olive groves, beautiful nature and a beautiful view of the island of Brač and the Omiš riviera are the reasons why most tourists visit this old part of Sumpeter, even during the summer heat.

Even during the hottest day, it is possible to find refreshment in the local restaurant / tavern in the village of Krug, where you can try locally grown food and drinks, as well as some of the most famous local specialties.
