For Culturally Aware: Korčula

You can get to the island of Korčula by ferry from Split, Rijeka and Dubrovnik. Former name of island was ''Korkyra Melainia'' or “Black Korcula”, and it comes from the ancient Greeks because of its dense oak and pine forests. In Korčula, you can easily find a combination of urban chic with a natural beauty. The medieval old town of Korčula is located on a small peninsula, and its narrow cobbled streets leading to the sea, all of lovely square St. Mark where the cathedral and the museum are located.

In the evening, you can have a drink on the waterfront and look around the 48 islands that make up the Korčula archipelago. Be sure to visit the islands Badija and Vrnik to enjoy the beautiful vineyards. As far as food is concerned, we recommend restorants “U Maje i Tonke” and ''Planjak'' where you can enjoy traditional Dalmatian dishes. For best traditional sweets on the Dalmatian coast, if not the wider, head for an inevitable Cukarin. Best restaurant with an amazing wine list is LD Terrace (Lesic Dimitri Palace).
