Island of Korcula

Korcula is one of the biggest Croatian islands, and the birth place of Marco Polo, the famous Venetian explorer. The island’s capital is also called Korcula, and this ancient city, called "Little Dubrovnik", is among the most beautiful on the Croatian coast and is known for its unique architecture.

The biggest and most beautiful building in Korcula is the Cathedral of St. Marco. South from that, there is the Bishop's Palace where the Abbatial Treasury of St. Marco is housed with a rich collection of Croatian and Italian Renaissance art, a collection of manuscripts and books and a collection of the ceremonial clothes. North from the Cathedral, there is the small church of St. Peter, the oldest preserved church in the town from the 11th century. On the western side of the square, there is Crkva Gospojina (Church of Our Lady) dating from 1483, a major Renaissance construction.

The Town Museum is situated in the palace Gabrielis, one of the most beautiful Korcula palaces, in the Renaissance style dating from the 16th century. Surrounding the city are the old city walls and the many towers that protected it against invaders.

On the western part of the island is the little town of Vela Luka, located at the bottom of a deep and wide bay indented by many coves, the slopes of which descend slowly to the sea, covered with vineyards, olive trees, fig trees and pines.

Scattered like pearls in the bay of Vela Luka, the little islands Proizd and Ošjak are popular tourist excursion destinations, virgin oases surrounded by clear sea and covered with thick pine woods. On the south slope of the hill Pinski rat there is an extraordinary archaelogical site called Vela Spila, one of the most important prehistoric finds in Europe.

In the place itself and in the beautiful coves of Vela Luka there are numerous summer houses and apartments offering private accommodation. Restaurants in Vela Luka base their gastronomic range on local food and provide service in pleasant Mediterranean interiors with the ubiquitous sounds of “klapa” songs, for which Vela Luka is widely known.
