SUPETAR, a town and harbour on the northern coast of the island of Brac. Main occupations include farming, wine production, olive growing, fishing and tourism. Yachts can anchor along the break-water; the landward side of the harbour provides good -anchoring-ground.

Most ferry and hydrofoil boats operate between Supetar and the ports on the mainland, which makes Supetar an important transit and tourist centre.

Due to its long nice sand beaches, enclosed by forests of pine, Supetar has long been a popular summer resort. Many will find the coast around Supetar, between Mirca in the west and Splitska in the east, an ideal place for swimming. With its variety of accommodation capacities (hotels, hotel annexes, apartments), restaurants, entertainment as well as sports and recreation opportunities (football, tennis, diving) Supetar meets the highest standards of tourism on Brac. Guided excursions to the surrounding islands represent another attraction.
