Introduction to Krapanj Island, Croatia
Krapanj is a small island located 300 metres off Croatia's Adriatic coastline. In fact, it is the smallest of all Croatia's inhabited islands. The nearest mainland town is Brodarica, from where regular boats depart for the island. The island only has one main town, which is separated into a number of distinct precincts. Most Krapanj Island hotels are located in these precincts. The island has a long history of diving, originally in order to harvest sea sponges. The selling of these sponges has been the biggest part of the island's economy for many years. This tradition has led the island to become increasingly popular among scuba-diving tourists. Visitors who would like to learn more about sea-sponge diving should visit Krapanj Monastery Museum, which hosts a permanent exhibition detailing the history of this industry. Even with visiting divers, the island is still well off the mainstream tourist trail, even during the peak season (June to August). The islanders continue to live in a traditional way, which has been unchanged for many years. In fact, vehicles are still prohibited across the whole of the island.
