3 Korcula, Croatia
.jpeg)
The sixth largest island in Croatia, Korcula is 20 miles long and rather narrow, between 4 and 5 miles wide on average. This island is known for its dense forest and the ancient Greeks called the island Black Korcula (Kerkyra melaina) for this reason. The main resorts are Korcula Town (people call it “Little Dubrovnik” because of its medieval squares, churches, palaces and houses), Vela Luka and Lumbarda. There’s also smaller towns and villages dotted around on the island for those looking for a more secluded holiday.

Where to eat:
As a highly recommended day trip, rent bikes in Korcula and cycle around the coast road to Lumbarda. Here you can find Feral Restoran right on the sea edge, serving fresh seafood (ditch the knives and forks and use your hands!) and their own production Grk wine. White shirts are not advised.
Where To Stay:
Small apartment in the heart of the peaceful village of Zavalatica, suitable for two persons! The apartment is just by the sea fully equipped with all the necessary ones with tv, kitchen, bathroom and romantic terrace with beautiful sea view and island Lastovo.
What to do:
Seek out the traces of Venice in Korcula — the Venetian-Gothic cloister in the 15th-century Franciscan monastery, Venetian artist Jacopo Tintoretto’s altarpiece in the Cathedral of St Mark, and the house of explorer Marco Polo..jpeg)
