Accessible from several points, this fantastic island is a must see, forbidden to miss. Korcula is a place to visit and to go, or a place to stay and...to rest. Maybe the most cozy place we visited in Croatia, this small town has something special that captivates the visitors. The slow rhythms of life, the omnipresence of the sea, and the fondness to its history make a positive blending that remains in our memories when leaving. |
The Island
Old Town
Saint-Marc Cathedral
Venetian buildings
Marco Polo's house
One of the highlights of the island is the house where Marco Polo seems to have lived. For the moment it is only a ruin, with the recuperation works disturbed by the flocks of tourists that constantly invade the place. So far, nothing in particular to see, just a detail in the walk across the small city. |
The Fortress
The ramparts were destroyed in the 19th century, but some towers and doors survived, contributing for the magical beauty of the site. Don't miss the small beach opposite to the harbour, not far from it.
