Vela luka

Vela Luka sits at the western tip of Korčula island, tucked into a long, sheltered half-moon bay that makes for a calm anchorage. Drop the hook here and you're within easy reach of Vela Spila, a prehistoric cave site dating back over 20,000 years, as well as the claim-to-fame Luka Mozaika — the world's longest mosaic. The town itself is low-key and unhurried, with waterfront cafes and a genuine local feel that's a world away from the busier spots on the island.
