Croatia Walking Tour in 4k - SUDURAD

 

Another extraordinary walking tour on one of the most beautiful islands in the Adriatic Sea—this time, we’re on the largest of the Elaphiti Archipelago islands, called Šipan. These islands are known as natural and maritime jewels in southern Croatia. The Elaphiti Archipelago consists of 13 islands, 10 of which are uninhabited. Šipan Island is listed in the Guinness Book of World Records for having the highest number of olive trees per unit area. It’s said that you can purchase olive oil here of exceptional quality. The island has a permanent population of about 450 people and spans an area of 16.22 square kilometers. The island’s highest point is Velji Vrh, standing at 243 meters above sea level. There are two main ports, in the towns of Šipanska Luka and Suđurađ. We are currently in the second town, Suđurađ, which has a population of just 207 people and whose economy is based on tourism and agriculture, primarily olive oil production, and the cultivation of figs and pomegranates. The main historical sites here include a fortified manor from the 16th century, a Benedictine monastery, the Renaissance Church of the Holy Spirit from 1577, and the Church of St. George. Our walking tour begins in the port of Suđurađ as we make our way toward the town center, where we’ll see the most important historical sites as well as a small promenade. To finish, we’ll explore the town’s narrow streets. Enjoy watching the walking tour in 4K Ultra HD quality with captions here: https://youtu.be/N3ljTSjxYMs
