EXCURSION TO PALAGRUŽA
Palagruža is an island 42 nautical miles away from Komiža, and since it is an island completely exposed to the sea and winds, stable weather is necessary for this excursion. We set off by a motor boat in the early morning hours, and in an hour and a half we will already find ourselves in the heart of the Adriatic, on the furthermost Croatian island of exceptional beauty and rich history. 1400 metres long, 300 metres wide and 90 meters high, Palagruža is the largest island of the Palagruža archipelago. On Palagruža there is an archaeological site and findings have proven Palagruža was the island of the Greek hero Diomedes. The island is a nature reserve with plant and animal endemic species.On Diomedes’s island, along with a visit to the largest lighthouse on the Adriatic, you will find out everything about the rich history of this open-sea island and hear some of the most interesting fishermen stories. Return to Komiža in the afternoon hours.Duration of excursion- 8-9 h
EXCURSION TO ISLANDS BRUSNIK AND JABUKA
The islands Brusnik and Jabuka are the only two Croatian islands that are completely built from lava, and together with a third island, Palagruža, which is only partly of eruptive origin, belong to the Vis archipelago and form the Adriatic volcanic triangle.The volcanic islet Brusnik is located 13 nautical miles from Komiža, it is protected as a nature monument, and is special because of its geological structure, and its plant and wildlife, including some endemic species. We set off in the morning hours from Komiža, 30 minute motor boat ride. When we arrive to this island with a moon-like terrain, we will take for a walk along its cyclopean beach, greet the black lizard, admire the endemic plants (Brusnik centaurea), hear interesting fishermen stories and see the so called ‘jastožeras’. Jastožeras are places where fishermen used to keep lobsters, and they are located in a natural fissure that divides the island into two parts. After we take a swim at this open-sea island, we will continue the boat ride towards the island of Jabuka.The island Jabuka is made of lava that contains plenty of magnetites and ascends pyramidically from the sea that, because of the huge depths, is of a very dark colour. The Island of Jabuka is, just like Brusnik, a protected natural monument. Since Jabuka’s rocks contain so much magnetite, compasses near Jabuka simply “go crazy” and become useless. There are endemic plants on Jabuka as well. This island sticks out of the endless azure like a sail, a ship without a captain and crew that is left to float forever, and only the bravest dare walk its rough volcanic rock. Duration of excursion- 6-7 h Note: On request you can visit only Brusnik island

Golden Vineyard is in the process of acquiring some of the most precious and delectable olive oils in the world. These oils will be compounded with several ...Unsurprisingly for a country that prides itself on the quality of its cuisine, some of Croatia’s best exports are culinary. They might be a little difficult to find, but if you can, try to get your hands on one of these tasty Croatian products. Olive oil Spain, Italy, and Greece might be the world’s top three producers of olive oil, but Croatia’s olive oils might just top them in purity. It’s a little-known fact that most of the big-name Italian olive oil brands actually sell a mixture of oils from all over Europe and Africa. Croatian olive oil, on the other hand, is the real deal – 100% pure, from olives grown right here in Croatia, often in centuries-old olive groves. Many families throughout Istria and Dalmatia produce their own olive oil, but some bigger brands, like Chiavalon and Brachia, are making their mark by offering top quality, boutique olive oils. Croatia may not be known for its chocolate, but it produces quite a bit of it, between big-name brands like Kras, the makers of ever-popular Bajadera, and smaller chocolatiers, like Vitlov’s Maraschino Chocolates in Zadar. Croatian chocolatiers Nadalina and Deliiicije are known for dreaming up unusual flavor combinations using regional ingredients, such as lavender, olives, and sea salt.Truffles The soil of Istria is rich with one of the priciest, most coveted culinary delights in the world – the truffle. You can’t walk into an Istrian restaurant without seeing truffles served up in a slew of different ways: on pastas, in polenta, dusting chocolate-filled potato dumplings. The prized mushroom is also made into spreads and packed up in little jars to be enjoyed elsewhere in the world, but of course, they’re best eaten fresh, in the heart of Istria. Every year, Croatia gets a little more recognition for its wines. This year alone, Croatia swept up at the Decanter World Wine Awards in London, with its wines winning a total of 65 awards, plavac became a favorite among American wine bloggers, and Zagreb was chosen to host the International Wine Tourism Conference in March 2013. Croatian wine is only going to get bigger and better, so start schooling yourself on the local varieties now.
Golden Vineyard is in the process of acquiring some of the most precious and delectable olive oils in the world. These oils will be compounded with several of the natual elements from the olive tree to produce not only the most notably delicious oil but also one with beneficial properties.(See report on olive leaf extract)
