Korcula Island | Croatia’s Mini-Dubrovnik Old Town & Prehistoric Cave in 4K

Not far from Dubrovnik, Korcula was a strategic outpost fortified by the Venetian Republic in the 13th century, and today is one of the best-preserved medieval island towns in the Mediterranean. Tourists enjoy Korčula's old town as a quieter, smaller version of Dubrovnik, along clear- blue water with palm-lined streets, wonderful restaurants, and beaches. And on the other end of the island is the beautiful port city of Vela Luka, with a stunning cave (Vela Spila) housing one of Europe’s most important prehistoric sites.
