The rich vegetation on the island explain why Mljet is also called “the green island”. The Mljet National Park is a beautiful sight all year round, walking along the coast to the 2 world’s famous lakes is always beautiful, hiking and cycling trails are scattered throughout the park, and almost always in the shade, so it is not too hot to walk in the summer either or bike.

The endless, turquoise waters that stretch from Istria in the north to Dalmatia in the south allow you to experience one of the most beautiful coastal stretches in Europe, both on land and at sea. The many beautiful beaches consist of pebbles and rocks, which is one of the reasons why the sea is so clean and they have completely fantastic colors and excellent underwater visibility, suitable for snorkeling and scuba diving.
