Island explorer is a custom tour, focused on outdoor experiences and set up for your preferences. You tell us what you're interested in and we will set it up. You just have to choose the way(s) we're gonna get around and what kind of places you want to see, we take care of everything else. The tour starts with a talk, even before we meet. To put it simply, there is just so many things to do here on Korčula island that you'd have to stay for a month to cover only a fraction of it. Because of that, we will talk about what you want to do – whether it is hiking, mountain biking, kayaking, rock scrambling or climbing, caving... Or just wandering around the island, finding the coolest spots that only locals know about. It's all up to you – together will set up plan and just go on an adventure!

First destination we head to is an abandoned stone village Dub, a place frozen in time. Less than 50 years ago village was still inhabited but with changes in the local way of life, today it stands completely abandoned. Just after we leave the village a panoramic view of Korčula's southern coast opens up, with plenty of little islets scattered along the coast. We descend towards a secluded pebble beach where you can enjoy a swim. From there the longest uphill of the day awaits - we ascend to top of Hum, the highest peak of western part of the island. With it's prominence and all-around view it is a beautiful lookout spot, overlooking the southern Adriatic sea. With such characteristics, it's not surprising that Habsburg empire built a fortress on top of the hill. From the fortress we descend towards the bay of Vela Luka and Pičena cove, where you can enjoy the sea, go for a paddle with a kayak or sit for a dinner just a few meters from the sea.

Deep bay of Vela Luka has pretty much determined the history of the town as well – fishing, shipbuilding, and seafaring were always part of living here. Prehistoric site of Vela Spila, thousands years old anchorage at Gradina bay, picturesque coves and chapels along the coastal trail – they all reveal us the details of a long and rich history of living by the sea and with the sea. The distance we will cover is about 13 kilometers, with 340 meters of altitude gain (about 8 miles and 1100 feet of elevation gain) which usually takes about 4 hours.

A tour of four to five hours to see the best that island of Korčula has to offer in short time. Local guide who will give you advices of what to see and experience. Experience the best of Black Island of White Wines and see why wines from island of Korčula win prizes on international wine competitions.
