Bol has many beautiful secluded beaches that are sometimes unfairly overlooked in favor of Zlatni Rat. The best thing is that they are all located only a few minutes from the town center. But Bol has a rich historical and cultural heritage as well, that best reveals itself to the visitor in off season, when one doesn’t have to seek shelter from the heat under the cloak of Zlatni Rat, but is able to explore all the treasures of this island.

125K Series Croatia Bol Open 2018 is the third edition of women’s tennis tournament that takes place in beautiful, picturesque place Bol, on the island of Brač, from 5th till 10th June (second week of Roland Garros).
