Ston, Croatia - Along our Croatia Road Trip from Split to Dubrovnik, we make a stop in Goran's hometown near Ston and Mali Ston; two incredible Croatian villages that people often overlook when traveling to Croatia.

Before arriving to Ston, we stop at the Neretva Delta; home to some of the most delicious fruits and veggies I have ever tasted. This is the true essence of Croatian Food, and a perfect pitstop on our Croatia Road Trip.

We stay at Goran's grandparents house in the traditional Croatian village of Čepikuće. It is a beautiful town that is close to Ston and Mali Ston.

On our way to Ston, Croatia there is a place where you can get some of the freshest oysters and mussels in the world! These oysters are so delicious, and we have the privilege to go out on a boat and see the harvesting process first-hand. This really makes you appreciate the food we passively eat.

Onward to the small town of Ston and neighboring Mali Ston (which just means little Ston). Two of the most Disney fairytale-like towns you’ll ever come across. It is an incredible region that most people skip because they travel direct to Split or Dubrovnik.

Another major reason why this is my favorite place in Croatia is because you have direct access to the island of Mljet. Mljet is an unspoiled island paradise that very few visitors take the time to explore. It’s said to be Croatia’s greenest island, with dense mediterranean forest and clear, clean water. On the Western end is an extensive National Park covering 5400 hectares of land and sea.

One of the most interesting attractions within the national park itself is St Mary’s Island; home to an incredible 12th Century Benedictine Monastery. Dating all the way back to ancient Greco-Roman geographers, The Romanesque Monastery has been rebuilt several times, and still features it’s original Roman ruins. The church itself is simply designed, but its position within this stunning landscape is what makes it so cool to see.

Finish the day up on Mljet with some cliff jumping and it's easy to see why I love this place so much!
