Suhovare (historically Suovare) is a settlement in Poličnik, Dalmatia, Croatia.
In 1332, knight Petar Mihovil's possessions and livestock held in the village of Suhovare (Zochovarie) were stolen.[3]
The village was abandoned in 1571, then resettled during the establishment of Ottoman government.[4] The rebuilt village was destroyed in 1646 by Venetian troops.[4] It was restored by returnees following major military actions in the 18th century.[4]
