Activities

  • Surfing

    The location of Viganj and Kučište on the coast at the narrowest part of the Pelješac canal and at the foot of a hill contributes to the development of a west mistral wind that blows a lot faster than is usual on the Adriatic, so Viganj and Kučište have become top surfing destinations for all professional and recreational surfers and kiters.



  • Mountaineering

    Mountain paths to St. Ilija are marked by standard markings. 3 routes are marked as shown on our map.



  • Cycling and walking

    Is there a better way of exercising and relaxing at the same time? Walking paths have been marked within the entire area of the Orebić municipality.



  • Camping

    Accessible from every corner of Europe with only a few hours drive,especially with the recent additions to its modern highway system, or with just an airline flight of an hour or two, the Croatian coast and Peljesac coast really is your closest vacation destination in the European Mediterranean.
