Slano, situated at the end of a beautiful, deep, 2-km long
inlet, represents an attractive resort due to its many pebble
beaches, rich vegetation and mild climate. |
| |
|
Yachts can anchor in the small protected Banja cove.
Anchoring-ground for larger yachts lies off the entrance in the
cove, to the southwest of Cape Gornji. |

|
The area of Slano was populated already in the prehistoric
period (ruins of a hill-fort and tumuli on the nearby hills) and
in the ancient times (a Roman castrum on the hill Gradina; early
Christian sarcophagi, today exhibited in front of the Franciscan
church). |
