 solopes Says:  Did I tell you something about Peljesac coast? No? Well... (Caught you! You didn't read my other Croatian tips...). Briefly I say... its a photographer's paradise at sunset! 

 solopes Says:  Distracted with the beauties of Peljesac coast, we suddenly arrive to a small town, with a long wall perched in the hills. More than 5 km long, this remains of Ragusa republic is an invitation - and a health test. I passed the test, climbing to the top, where the award is...... 

 edwis Says:  , Joan and I drove by car to the nearby village of Ston, which has a stone wall circling the hills second in length to the Great Wall of China. Strings that are used to farm mussels fill the water of Ston’s inlet, and a salt works is still functioning, distilling the densely...

 GeoV Says:  The Dalmatian Coast is famed for its islands and if you're not actually visiting one - maybe you're based in Dubrovnik, for instance - Pelješac, joined to the mainland only be a narrow neck of land, is the next best thing. And, of course, you have access from the peninsula... 

 JLBG Says:  When you walk down, you will get another kind of reward if you happen to find on the main place of Ston, a restaurant grilling a lamb (janjetina). That is what we were lucky enough to get. And the chef had got a gorgious pair of moustaches! (photo 1)I highly recommend... 

 JLBG Says:  Locals claim that the great Ston wall is almost equal to China’s great wall but this is pure bragging as it is a thousand time shorter! Nevertheless climbing along the great Ston stonewall by a hot afternoon of August is a challenge. The reward will be a magnificent... 

 SabrinaSummerville Says:  Until I arrived in this little town, I had no idea that there were walls anywhere in the world that might be compared to the Great Wall of Chine. Ston, however, has such walls and they are second in the world to those of China.They can be seen from quite a distance as you...

That in itself sounded like a dream come true, but nothing could have prepared...

 JLBG Says:  Not really off the beaten path but off Ston, further on Pelješac.Photo 1 and 2. The landscape northwards between Dubrava and Drače. In the foreground, the islets of Dubovac, Tajan and smaller ones (Lovorikovac, Maslonovac, Pučenjak and Galičak. In the... 

 karentids Says:  Ston is a unique village in that it has retained it's charm whilst at the same time playing host to visitors. It is a chance to walk to some tiny hamlets where life has just about stood still. Where wine and brandy are made by the locals and where people will make you so...
