Tips from locals
Biokovo Nature Park is located directly above the Makarska Riviera. Entrance to the park itself, which contains many endemic species and is also full of domestic animals, is allowed. The highest peak of Biokovo is Sveti Jure with its 1762 meters height, which is unsurpassedly rewarded with a panoramic view of the sea and islands, Zagora, the mountains of Bosnia and Herzegovina and neighboring Italy. Among the biggest attractions is the construction of a horseshoe-shaped belvedere outside the cliff with a glass surface for walking called the Skywalk Biokovo. I recommend a visit to the Nature Park because not going to Biokovo will make you regret it. For transport you can contact the host who will arrange a trip to the Biokovo park.
