The Best Hostels in Korcula, Croatia

Korcula is a Croatian island in the Adriatic Sea, off the mainland's Peljesac peninsula. The town of Korcula is known for the medieval towers and walls fortifying its harbor. Its central square features the Cathedral of St. Mark, begun in the 14th century. The island's beaches include Vela Przina, a wide crescent that's popular with families, and Pupnatska Luka, a sheltered cove. Rich in vineyards, olive groves and small villages, and harboring a glorious old town, the island of Korcula is the sixth-largest Adriatic island, stretching nearly 47km in length. Dense woods led the original Greek settlers to call the island Korkyra Melaina (Black Korcula). Quiet coves and small sandy beaches dot the steep southern coast while the northern shore is flatter and more lined with pebbles and rocks. Tradition is alive and kicking on Korcula, with age-old religious ceremonies, folk music and dances still being performed to the delight of an ever-growing influx of tourists. Oenophiles will adore sampling its wine. Arguably the best of all Croatian whites is produced from posip grapes, which are only grown here and to a lesser extent on the Peljesac Peninsula. The grk grape, cultivated around Lumbarda, also produces quality dry white wine. With so much to see and do, Korcula is a great place to visit, and, there are also some great, budget-friendly accommodations to use as a base for experiencing this great area.
