"Korcula is a walled medieval village on the Adriatic island, known as the purported home to Marco Polo. It's more of a day-trip destination, reducing tourist crowds by sundown, allowing for a relaxing atmosphere in the cafés and narrow alleys." - Travel + Leisure Editors

"▲▲ Low-key, charmingly rustic, relatively affordable island and walled peninsular Old Town facing craggy mountains, giving it the feel of a mini-Dubrovnik." - Rick Steves' Europe
My wife and I were happy to take the ferry from Orebic to Korcula. The journey is short and pleasant. The old town itself with its magnificent entrances takes you over and you quickly travel back a few centuries in history. There is so much to see. Small shops selling coral, paintings, food and of course ice cream to cool you down while you walk along the hot stone and at least 400-year-old streets.

The most mysterious and wholesome place of entire Croatia. It holds something very special and if you are near make an effort experience it

What an AMAZING Island to visit. Perfect place to go after the hustle and bustle of Dubrovnik. Great restaurants, clear water surrounds the island and plenty of little stores to find a treat.

One of the islands that is still going under the radar. Absolutely breathtaking, it's the greenest of all islands in Croatia with a rich cultural heritage and fantastic beaches. Since the land there is fertile, the locals grow pretty much everything and the taste of fruit and vegetable is amazing. Let's not forget two sorts of wines; pošip and grk which are brilliant. If you have a chance to go there don't hesitate, immerse yourself into the real mediterranean.

An amazing island , beautiful scenaries , deep clear waters , sandy beaches , nice and quiet small villages settled around golfs . I recommend renting a car so that you can explore the whole island . You can also visit the wineries which are famous for Posip and Gyrk wines. It was a very pleasant experience !

Beautiful place, with a thousand little bays and beaches. While the city of Korcula can get crowded at times (this is where the cruiseships go...) the rest of the island is more quiet and peaceful. You can get here by ferry from Split.
