Why it is worth your time
Not a landscaped park but a piece of Biokovo itself: native mountain flora grows here between boulders and old terraces, labelled yet wild. Above the garden an old fortification clings to the cliff face, and below you lie Makarska and the sea.
Croatia Atlas tip
Loveliest in spring, when the Biokovo flora blooms and the slopes are still green.
