Mrduja
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Mrduja is an uninhabited island, only a hundredth of a square kilometer, in Splitska vrata (Split Channel) between Brač and Šolta, about 400m from Rt Zaglav near Milna on Brač in Croatia. The island is nearer to Brač than to Šolta: A legend goes that the inhabitants of Brač and those of Šolta wrangled over whom the island belonged to so they used a rope in an attempt to pull it from one side of the Split Channel to the other. The people of Brač won the tug of war[1].
A lighthouse (CRO 099[2]), the ruins of old fortification, and several pines, agaves and opuntias grace the islet, which is the turning point for the Mrduja Regata.
