Orebic

The small town and the most famous settlement located on the southern cost of the peninsula Pelješac, right across Korčula. The limestone hills, St. Ilija (961 m) and Vižanjica(443 m) partially protect it from the northern wind-bura.

The surrounding area is covered with rich Mediterranean vegetation (pines, almonds, citrus fruits). The most famous beach is in the cove Trstenica. The town used to be an important marine center. Earlier it was called Trstenica, but in the 16th century it was named after the family of captains from Bakar. The town has the Naval Museum. In the vicinity, two kilometers from the town, there is the Gothic-renais-sance Franciscan monastery from the 15th century with the church built by locad masters.
