About this activity
Explore Korčula, a Dalmatian gem steeped in centuries of history, mythology, and Mediterranean charm on this full-day excursion from Dubrovnik. Beyond its famous Marco Polo connection, this island reveals Neolithic roots, pristine beaches—including the photogenic 'Croatian Santorini'—ancient vineyards, and a living culture anchored in traditional music and local gastronomy.
Most often you will read that Korčula is the city of Marco Polo. It is true, but it is also so much more! Korčula’s records of time date back to the Neolithic period.
Legend says that fairy-tale Korčula was home to the beautiful Greek mythology hero, Kerkyra. It is even said to be named after her. These days Korčula presents a connection of nature and beautiful beaches, amongst them is also the “Croatian Santorini”. It shows thousands of years of culture, history, and tradition. Hundreds of years old oil groves, vineyards, and fruit and vegetable productions assure you that you will eat good and local in Korčula. Memories of the great Croatian singer Oliver Dragojević, who was born in Korčula, keep lovely dalmatian music and atmosphere on every step. While enjoying a glass of wine, of course.
