**Location**
Korcula, often called the pearl of southern Dalmatia, showcases a picturesque walled old town, breathtaking coastal panoramas, charming fishing villages, and idyllic coves. As the sixth-largest island in Croatia, Korcula boasts dense forests, which the ancient Greeks named "Black Korcula" (Kerkyra melaina) for this reason. Beyond the tourist hotspots on the island's coast, the interior offers a unique verdant landscape with sweeping vistas and hidden cultural treasures that can be explored on foot or by bike. The island's coastline is riddled with numerous bays and coves. Key resorts include Korcula Town, known as "Little Dubrovnik" due to its medieval squares, churches, palaces, and houses, as well as Vela Luka and Lumbarda. Smaller towns and villages dot the island, providing a more secluded holiday experience. Despite being one of Croatia's cherished islands, Korcula might not be as popular as its northern counterparts due to its relatively remote location, but it promises to awaken the explorer, athlete, gourmet, hedonist, and romantic within you. So, without hesitation, explore Korcula Island and discover your true self in the process.
