Wave a long goodbye to Hvar but don't fall off the boat as you have some miles to sail direction east. While sailing, contemplate life and the afterlife but also think of what to do with your day this time. Let's be crazy and reverse the roles this time. Nature is where you can go rogue this time as we want to send you to Lovište, the final tip of Pelješac peninsula. As if the peninsula is a flower that blooms at Lovište in a form of beautiful bays like petals spread across, this site is very popular in the nautical world. Lots of beaches and bays can accommodate many boats and give you some privacy to enjoy the gifts of nature. Speaking of privacy and gifts of nature, you can combine these two in even more literal and, to some, more interesting way as Lovište has a beautiful FKK beach where you can take off the excess weight and feed your body with vitamin D even in the places that haven't seen any since childhood when you bathe in a plastic bucket. Swim, sleep, do whatever you want to do just don't combine the two at the same time or you will wake up in the middle of Korčula channel and your boat will go in a different direction. The peace and quiet on this day can be found in the town of Korčula. Although it lives off tourism, Korčula is not so crowded and exploited as Hvar. ACI marina can give you the place to leave your boat and you can go marvel the sights around. You will be amazed by the preserved walls that still encompass the old town of Korčula, beautiful towers in the corners that gave the most needed defense in the time of crisis. There were a few throughout history as Korčula as an island was inhabited from prehistory. After Illyrians, the Greeks, and Romans had their colony in the site, Byzant and Venice always crafting their influence web around Korčula. Probably the most famous fact about Korčula is that Marco Polo, the famous merchant, was born in Korčula as the Polo family had a house in the town, preserved and well-visited to this day. He was even captured in waters around Korčula after a sea battle between Venice and Genoa, triggering the series of events leading to his story being told and written down. Story of many travels and wonders he has seen in his wonderings along the Silk Road. Stay around and catch some of the stories from the Korčula's elders as sometimes they tell of how naughty and adventurous Marco has been in his childhood. Alcohol can be a friend and a foe sometimes. Be careful with it. Check the tight alleys, check the beautifully decorated stone houses and the walls that saved Korčula a few times and lived to this day. The alleys will eventually lead you to the Korčula's summer theater in which you can see some plays during the fertile cultural summer period. The main event is definitely the sword dance of Moreška, one of the greatest and longest traditions of Korčula. This mock dance was introduced to the island as it originates from a Spanish sword dance where, in the form of a play, Christians and Moors fight over a lady. Other countries as well have their own version of this or similar mock dances, but the one in Korčula is special because of the costumes, use of two swords instead of one, and a great scenery of course. For some more info about the dance, as we don’t have enough room to explain the whole complexity of the dance, and schedule of plays, you can always visit the official web page of Korčula's tourist office.
