Why it is worth your time
Climb to the St Roch cemetery and you reach a pure-white shrine that sculptor Ivan Meštrović carved for the shipowning Račić family, all lost within a few years. Step inside and let the angels, doves and saints flowing over the dome, the silence and the wide sea view turn grief into something serene.
