This thesis aims to investigate and analyze the potential resources for developing dark tourism content in the Mediterranean, with a special emphasis on the island of Brač. Dark tourism, as a specific form of selective tourism, focuses on destinations associated with historical tragedies, disasters, and other dark events. The research is focused on the island of Brač due to its rich historical heritage, which serves as a foundation for secondary research. Through descriptive analysis of secondary data and in-depth interviews with relevant individuals, the paper presents the potential of the island of Brač for the development of dark tourism. The research methods used in the paper include descriptive analysis, methods of induction and deduction, generalization, and in-depth interviews. Interviews were conducted with Robert Barilla, editor of the most comprehensive island monograph, and Ivana Jelinčić, director of the tourist board Postira, providing a deeper insight into local resources and their usability for dark tourism. The research results show that the island of Brač possesses significant resources that can be utilized to develop dark tourism. The importance of adapting the tourist offer to new trends and the needs of tourists is highlighted. The development of dark tourism on the island of Brač would not only diversify the local tourist offer but also create added value through the preservation and interpretation of the island's rich historical and cultural heritage.
