Explore Brač

Rooted in Stone since the 12th Century

Gornji Humac is one of the oldest, most historically rich, and most charming inhabited places on the island of Brač. With only around 300 residents, it is the perfect place to escape the hustle and bustle of the city and enjoy a relaxing break in a beautiful, authentic setting. The village was first mentioned in 1184 in the famous Charter of Povlja (Povaljska listina), one of the oldest written documents in Croatian history.

Nestled high in the heart of Brač, Gornji Humac rises 420 metres above sea level, resting quietly somewhere between the sea and the stars. Thanks to its unique position, summer evenings here are cooler, calmer, and touched by a gentle inland breeze — the inspiration behind the name Summer Breeze. Even on the warmest nights, you will sleep peacefully in the village’s fresh air.

Here, nights are quieter, skies are darker, and Brač feels truly authentic. And yet, the island’s most beautiful coastal towns, beaches, and hidden bays are only minutes away.
