Rukavac

Rukavac is a most attractive small tourist resort situated along two picturesque bays, on the southern coast of the island of Vis, about ten kilometres from the ferry-boat pier.

This quiet and charming place with a small wharf, numerous beaches, off-shore islands and islets, was originally a fishermen's village but today it has been transformed into a holiday resort with small summer houses surrounded by their own gardens. Tourists can reach the place by two asphalted roads passing through the interior of the island, over small hills and green valleys. Besides the crystal-clear sea and sandy and pebbly beaches or solitary rocks, all of them accessible in a few minutes walk, this attractive place is ideal for short excursions to the nearby islands or picturesque hamlets in the interior that still have a seal of the by-gone times. Here you will find the most beautiful beach on the island – SREBRENA( the Silver Beach). This place is also convenient for long walks along the coast or excursions on foot or by mountain bikes along downward or upward slopes of the surrounding hills. This is the right place for your holiday if you are looking for peace and relaxation.
