                | Makarska Riviera 
                  is a part of Dalmatian coast of Adriatic, about 
                  60 kilometers long and only several kilometers wide, squeezed 
                  under towering mountain Biokovo. Sunny climate 
                  and long pebbly beaches make this region a popular tourist destination. |  |
