If you spend the night in Korčula, have a morning coffee and continue sailing further south towards the island of Mljet and the town of Pomena, app. 14 miles from Korčula. On the other hand, if you decided to stay in Lovište, forget about coffee while anchoring and hit the wave right away! Just kidding, plan your time by checking out our suggestions to reach the destination in time for your other activities. Don't forget to dress!!!! You can tie the boat up on the seafront in front of the hotel in Pomena or in surrounding bays. A real paradise for sailors, Mljet is truly a love at first sight where one can find plenty of fish specialties and great hospitality. Paying a visit to the National Park Mljet is a must as you won't be able to believe your own eyes. Pristine beauty, preserved nature in form of a Small and Great lake, connected saltwater lakes with an isle of St. Mary on it that is a most visited location on Mljet thanks to the Benedictine monastery built in 12th century are the main attraction of this park. We are sure that no one can beat the beauty of our island-in-a-lake-on-an-island, even though there are several island-in-a-lake-on-an-island-in-a-lake-on-an-island islands. Dizzy? Try to say it faster a few times... :) Ok, ok, ok...get off the boat and take one of the roads connecting all the beauties inside the park, climb up the peak of Montokuc to prey on the breath-taking view of Mljet and the Aleppo pine tree colony from which Mljet got the nickname Green Island. Exactly because of this green richness, Mljet has been heavily connected with a legend of Odysseus and nymph Calypso. Several locations on the island and geographical focal points on the island can be tracked and linked with the original description in Homer's masterpiece. Truth or not, while on your mini-tour, check the Odysseus' Cave on the south side of the island. Who knows, maybe you are the one to find some crucial evidence to uncover the truth!
