Shingle spit

I thought it was a lifeguard, peering out to sea. But no, it was a man with his camera standing on a lofty vantage point. He beat me to it.
This is Zlatni Rat on the island of Brac on Croatia’s beautiful Adriatic coastline. It’s this amazing spit of land made up of shingle, and has become a popular spot for Croatians and overseas visitors to Dalmatia. You approach it from the small town of Bol via a broad pine-clad avenue. The sea shimmers a myriad of blues and sailing boats bob gently on the water.
Like many places around this country, it’s well worth a visit. Here are just a few more Zlatni Rat moments…
What an idyllic place to be.

It’s rather lovely, Andy. Just the crunch of feet on shingle occasionally.

I was pleased to capture this. He went up there again and was doing yoga or something. Maybe he lives there.

He found himself a great spot, beautiful views and a nice stage to perform from for Mike from Britain ;)

Ha! I think I was a latecomer to the party and he hadn’t invited anybody!
