Journey through time: The historical triangle of the Makarska Riviera (Makarska, Tučepi, Brela)

Use the tranquil autumn days for a journey through history. Makarska, Tučepi, and Brela offer insight into different eras of Dalmatia – from ancient ruins and sacred heritage to natural symbols that defy time. Discover the Riviera in November, free from summer crowds.

1. Brela: Kamen Brela – A Symbol of Beauty and Natural Stories

In summer, Brela is synonymous with the most beautiful beaches, but in autumn, it reveals a meditative experience. The famous Punta Rata and Kamen Brela become a natural icon in the silence. This rock, overgrown with pines, is the most recognizable motif of the Riviera and a symbol of untouched beauty.

In November, the scent of pines and the silence around Kamen Brela offer a unique opportunity for contemplation and connection with nature, away from the hustle. It is the perfect spot for autumn photography, as the Biokovo mountain dramatically overshadows the entire scene.

2. Makarska: A Museum Treasure Trove in the Baroque Heart

Makarska is the urban and cultural center of the region, ideal for exploring when the days are cooler. The Franciscan Monastery offers refuge from the autumn rain or wind. Inside the monastery, you will find the Malacological Museum (Museum of Shells), whose unique collection attracts curiosity enthusiasts and provides insight into the underwater world of the Adriatic and beyond.

The core of the old town is Kačić Square with the Cathedral of St. Mark. Baroque architecture dominates the scene, and in November, the square becomes a quiet gathering place for locals, perfect for observing city life.

3. Tučepi: From Prehistory to Village Charm in the Foothills of Biokovo

Tučepi offers insight into the history of life on Biokovo, where people resided for centuries before descending to the coast. We invite you for a gentle autumn walk to Upper Tučepi (Gornji Tučepi) and the old stone hamlets in the foothills of the mountain.

These stone villages were the original centers of life. Among them stands out the Church of St. Jure (Sveti Jure) from the 13th century, an exceptional example of early medieval architecture that attests to the rich and long history of the area.

Conclusion: The Authenticity of Autumn

November is the ideal time for a deeper acquaintance with the Makarska Riviera. The silence and solitude provide a unique opportunity to connect with the stories that the Riviera has preserved for thousands of years – whether they are found in the stone of old churches or whispered by the pines around the legendary Kamen Brela. Don't miss the authenticity of the autumn Riviera!
