A Jewel Beneath Biokovo
Drvenik is a place which got its name from the word tree ("drvo" in Croatian) and it has its roots deep in the history of Makarska Riviera. Find out more about the jewel that connects the massiveness of Biokovo's reefs and the vastness of the sparkling Adriatic Sea.
Apartments Petracie and Drvenik
The Apartments Petracie are a cozy house with 9 apartments, which treasure the story of the family Gabrić behind its name. The family originated from the Petrač line and lived once in the Old Village Drvenik, just below Biokovo.
The idyllic life was cut short in the 60s, as an earthquake destroyed the beautiful village. Like all residents, the Gabrići left the ruins of the village behind, descended the mountain and built a new home in the calmness of two bays - Gornja and Donja Vala. This is where new Drvenik emerged.
A short stroll through this peaceful and relaxing place reveals its rich history. The great love of the Croatian Romeo and Juliet carved in stone, the Turkish battles and courage of Drvenik's women are just some of the stories Drvenik can tell you.
