Sućuraj

After a wonderful time in Dubrovnik we caught the bus to Drvenik to catch the ferry to Sućuraj . Sućuraj is a very small village on the island Hvar, and is where my great grandfather was born. The ferry ride was a quick one but gave us some pretty good views.

We then looked around the village and found my grandfather’s cousin Ivan whose house we stayed in last night with his wife Mirijana and son Marko. They check there emails once every 20 days so weren’t aware that we were coming but were very welcoming.

We then went exploring in the graveyard and around to the lighthouse. It was awesome to see and experience a part of my heritage. I am very glad we went to Sućuraj.

We have arrived in Hvar now still very hot but saying in a nice place with a great view, air conditioning and 200m from the beach.
