Regarding the food we highly recommend lunch at Antonio Patak. The restaurant is famous for excellent tasty dishes made from fresh fish caught the same day. We would like to point out the well known broth from Hvar, with magnificent lobster, prepared with local fish and potatoes.
Day 2 – Korčula
Rich in vineyards, olive groves and small villages, and harbouring a glorious old town, the island of Korčula is the sixth-largest Adriatic island, stretching nearly 47km in length. Dense pine forests led the original Greek settlers to call the island Korkyra Melaina (Black Corfu). Quiet coves and small sandy beaches dot the steep southern coast while the northern shore is flatter and more pebbly.
Tavern Škafetin is an amazing restaurant that can offer you delicious and fresh dalmatian dishes.
Day 3 – Vrnik
Vrnik is a tiny inhabited island in the Korčula archipelago. It is well known for its deep stone quarries dating back from Roman times. Vrnik is worth to go and visit during the day as it has a lot of secluded small swimming spots where water is so blue and clear as well as a lot of pine trees on the eastern side of the island, where one can enjoy the shade on the hot summer days.
The restaurant where you can try the best food on the island is Vrnik Arts Club. On their menu you can find classic Mediterranean dishes made in modern way.
After lunch you can visit some of the bays located in Velika and Mala Stupa where you can go swimming and enjoying in the sun. It’s pretty much raw nature and nothing else so it is ideal for people who want to enjoy the nature.

Restaurant Pomena is the perfect place to enjoy your lunch, with a rich choice of fish and homemade specialties, local wine and brandy, goat cheese in olive oil and other delicious meals. Interesting fact about this place is that owner itself catches fresh fish sou you can be sure that your meal won’t disappoint you.
