For many centuries, the population of Smokvica has lived from olive and fruit growing, as well as making wine. There are some amazing old customs that have been passed from one generation to another by the people of both Blato and Smokvica, such as "Kumpanija", the medieval dance of the knights. Smokvica is also famous for producing from local grapes two great white wines called "Rukatac" and "Posip".

Finally, the road climbs up northward to the inner part of the island - the big Blato village.
The origins of the name "Smokovica" remain a mystery; some sources suggest that it comes from the Roman language Latin where it means "pathways".
