The island of Krapanj is the lowest and the smallest inhabited island in the Adriatic. Its highest altitude does not exceed 1.25 m and it is only 300 m away from the mainland. Krapanj is the island of the centuries-old tradition of diving, sponge harvesting and processing and fishing.

The centre of Krapanj composes of mostly stone houses, which form a network of narrow stone streets, characteristic of the Dalmatian landscape. A centuries-old pine forest and the monastery of the Holy Cross must be pointed out. The museum of the monastery houses numerous exhibits that show the life on Krapanj in the past.


Otok Krapanj najniži je i najmanji naseljeni otok na Jadranu. Najviša mu nadmorska visina ne prelazi 1,25 m. Udaljen je od kopna svega 300 m. Krapanj je otok stoljetne tradicije ronilaštva, spužvarstva i ribarstva.

Njegovo središte čini naselje od uglavnom kamenih kuća, koje tvore splet uskih kamenih uličica, karakteristično za dalmatinsko podneblje. Iz te se mreže izdvaja stoljetna borova šuma i samostan Sv.Križa, u čijem muzeju se čuvaju brojni eksponati koji svjedoče o životu Krapnja u prošlim vremenima.
