a string of little silver islands, you can enjoy a culture that goes back a thousand
years, as well as an amazing gastronomic offering

Odmah ispod mjesta Lastova je mjesto Lučica, mala uvala u kojoj su stare kamene ribarske
kućice i vezovi za brodice / Right below the town of Lastovo, there is a place called Lučica,
little bay with archaic stone fishermen houses and boat moorings
The tame green island of Lastovo is the trademark
of a vacation accompanied by untouched nature.
On this island dipped into the blueness of the
Adriatic Sea and decanted with a string of little
silver islands, you can enjoy a culture that goes back
a thousand years, as well as an amazing gastronomic
offering. Even old Hellenic statesmen, Roman senators
and Austrian emperors have used Lastovo’s olive oil. For
those who are capable of living life to the fullest and
who are not afraid of the sound of silence, this island is
the ideal place for a vacation.
Archipelago Lastovo is comprised of 46 islands and ridges,
and they take up 56,2 square kilometres of overall
surface. It is located south of the island of Korčula and
48
about 60 nautical miles from Cape Gargano on the Italian
side of the Adriatic. The main island Lastovo has 46,9
square kilometres of surface and it is the fourteenth largest
island in the Adriatic Sea.
Along with Mljet, Lastovo is the most forested Croatian
island, and it owns all the standard characteristics of the
Mediterranean area. The local winters are rainy, and
the summers are dry, long and warm. Lastovo is one of
the ten “paradise” gardens of the Mediterranean that
make up the list of the World Wildlife Fund (WWF).
It was as early as mid-tenth century that Byzantine Emperor
Constantine VII. Porfirogenet mentioned Lastovo,
although the first major references of this island were
connected to the events of the year 1000. As described
