About Katuni
Katuni is one of five villages in the municipality of Šestanovac, with 562 people at the 2011 census, in the Dalmatinska Zagora hinterland of Split-Dalmatia County. This is farming country: a strip of fertile fields along the left bank of the Cetina, a rugged ridge running parallel, vineyards and olive groves. A good part of the Cetina runs through Šestanovac in a deep canyon. The homes are spread over a few kilometres of countryside. Most are big, sleeping eight or more, and nearly all have a private pool, a garden and air conditioning. Evenings revolve around the house, or local dishes such as spit-roasted lamb and veal cooked under the peka.
