ABOUT BRUSNIK ISLAND EXPERIENCE
Explore one of only two volcanic islands in Croatia. Brusnik Island is composed of subvolcanic diabase formed by the crystallization of magma. Walk along its cyclopean beach, greet the black lizard, admire the endemic plants (Brusnik centaurea), hear interesting fishermen stories, and see the so-called ‘jastožeras’. Jastožeras are places where fishermen used to keep lobsters, and they are located in a natural fissure that divides the island into two parts.
Apart from enjoying the Island of Brusnik, which was declared a protected area in 1951 in the category of geological monuments of nature, we will also visit Bisevo Island and have a break on the sandy beach with the possibility of visiting the Blue Cave at the end of our journey.”

GEOSTORY BRUSNIK ISLAND ITINERARY:
We depart in the morning from Komiža, embarking on a 30-minute motorboat ride.
Upon reaching Brusnik, we will stroll along its cyclopean beach and explore small seawater pools used as lobster ponds. After some time for swimming, we continue towards Porat bay and the sandy beach on the western open-sea coast of Bisevo Island. Here, in this beautiful sandy bay, you will have the opportunity to swim, play ‘picigin’, and optionally enjoy lunch at a small beachside restaurant.

Perhaps our best tour ever!
One of the best tours we’ve ever done, thanks to our outstanding and hilariously funny guide Goran. We were 3 couples so did a private combination gastro and military tour. Wine tasting, food tasting, military tunnels and speeding down an WWII runway. Truly great and absolutely recommend tlbilooking with Goran.
