Okrug is situated on the west part of Island Čiovo. It
consists of two traditional Dalmatian inhabited places Okrug gornji and
Okrug Donji. The island of Čiovo is connected to mainland by the bridge
in ancient

bay, Businci, Milicevo, Pivetova glavica and old village

So basically it is island and mainland at the same time.

town with your car through bridge which is open 24 hours a day. From Okrug
gornji you can go to Trogir, beside by car, by bus and by boat. Boat goes from
