Because of its beauty, over the years it has been named Golden, Green, and Coral Island.
No wonder then that the island has been populated since ancient times. The historical monuments of the island include the Church of Our Lady of Rašelj, the Church of the Assumption, and the Chapels of St Roche and Simon from the 17th century.
Idyllic pristine nature, dense pine forests, different beaches, and numerous hidden smaller and larger bays will thrill every excursionist and tourist.
Boaters like to come here because of the good anchorage and naturally protected harbour. There is still a coral shop on the island, where coral jewellery is sold and made by hand.
