We believe tgat Brac has been carrying name thanks to ancient Illyrian name for deer, an animal of his prehistoric inhabitants. According to ancient legend, the Trojan hero Antenor (the legendary founder of Padova and Korcula) came after the fall of Troy from Greek Ambracie to the island Brač.The life was built on cattle, olive oil, wine and fishing. Today Brač has something for everyone. It is famous for its Zlatni rat beach situated outside of the town of Bol. The beach is a favorite destination of surfers and all water sports lovers.
