During our 90-minute private tour, we stop at the beautiful island of Badija – a peaceful and unique spot just off Korčula.

Guests can enjoy a relaxing swim in crystal-clear water, sunbathe on the beach, or take a peaceful walk through pine forest paths. There’s a charming beach bar where they can enjoy a cold drink or a snack, and a small restaurant offering local specialties.

Badija is also home to a free-roaming herd of friendly deer, which guests can often see up close – a special experience for families and nature lovers.

The island has historical charm as well: it was once a sports training center, and even hosted the Croatian national football team, including legendary names like Davor Šuker, Robert Prosinečki, and Zvonimir Boban.
