They pick you up morning, and drop you of in the evening. Its pretty much a 10 hour drinking extravagansa. Packed with people and 90’s music.

I consider it a nightmare on sea.

But then again, I might just be getting old. 🙂

I was very sceptical, the name carries a lot of bad connetations. And their advertising is off the scale bad taste:

As is their menu:

But it is a really chill place, with treehouse vibes, a really cool brickoven and good cocktails. Well worth a visit, (by day).

Just 10 min walk out of promajna is viagra bar, on the way to baska voda. Time for ‘lunch’ and a swim.

Lunch mai tai

Another dayin paradise there :).. Time to test the water!

We did a day walking the streets of Makarska, beautifull town. The heat of course, 35 in the shade – not a breath of wind.

Ice cold coke does the trick. The croatians still had their World Cup coke for sale 🙂

The old town is very nice, not to big but with lots of narrow alleys and steep stairs running zig zag troughout the town.

Did some pitstops along the way, there are some very nice small cafes around the square by the church.

For lunch/early dinne we did Riva, just by the harbor. A bit fancy but also the best seafood for miles. We where 9, two of em kids. Beer, coke, tons of food.. 2000 kuna, so not bad.. Usually we would land on 700 kuna, so abit above average, but then again – excelent food.

I had the seabream, pic above. One of the best seafiod dinners i have ever had.

Slivo to the left, croatian radler in the middle and one the right a karlovacko beer. Perfekt combo

But the radler they have here is especially good. Only2%, but a very nice drink in the sun.

Yo,. So today we got the cars and set out for the hills/mountain. We wanted to head out to the wing memorial in podgora.. Pogadoro.. Padgoro.. Something like that. Its not to far from promajna, 40 minutes or so. The Seagulls War Memorial

We got of nr 8, and did the trip on 512. That was a bit more winding and tury road, bearly two lanes and sharp turns. Fun driving, but not for the light heartet – if you get one tire over the curb you are pretty much fucked and heading for eternety. 🙂

We got so close to the memorial but missed the gravel road and was back on the highway back to promajna. But the drive was nice enough, we got up high and the views was super nice. Lots of small nice villages.. Very oictorece the 512 to Poggodorra.

When we got back to promajna, we took a turn towards the mountains towards Bast. I think aprox 300 meters above sea level. Great views!, abd a easy drive. Be sure to punch in the church on google maps and youll get to a nice viewing point.

This is a famous stone.. In Bast.. Nice!!!

Had lunch in Brela, just north of Promajna. Super nice place, but crowded with cars.. So when driving just take your time. Resturants was placed just a few meters from the water and its very cosy! The resturant we ate ate, i think there is a picture above here, was a bit more expensive than the regular resturant but the food was outta this world.

Even the wasps was fine diners, staying away from the coca cola, just eating chicken. 🙂

Lunch at La Strada Street Food, very nice burgers. And they also had black fish burgers.
