Beautiful coves line up along the coastilne: Stiniva, Likva, Stipanska and Vičja Luka. Most arable land can be found at the end of hollows, all the way to the sea. Mostly anthropogenic land is found on plateaus in higher parts of Sutivan cadaster municipality. Olive groves and vineyards dominate over most surface areas, compared to the number of acres, forrests, pastures or barren land on the island. The surface structure is a result of a hundred year long tradition of agriculture, which made Sutivan municipality number one in population density on cadaster surface area. On the turn of the last century, agriculture flourished with a high level of product per person and this is when Sutivan made its wealth on agriculture and help from diaspora. Many vineyards were neglected and some people changed crops and started planting citrus fruits but in the last ten years people have been turning to olive growing again. Sutivan municipal area enjoys a Mediterranean climate: mild winters and hot summers. Average annual temperature is 16,5 °C. Temperature rarely falls below 0°C.
