Orebic harbour from N

The harbour of Orebić lies on the S coast of the Peljesac Peninsula on the Adriatic coast of Croatia, just two miles NE of the town of Korčula on the island of the same name. A former maritime centre and now a popular tourist resort, Orebic is the largest settlement along this stretch of coast until arriving at Dubrovnik. In addition to its thriving tourist industry, the town is also a centre for exploring the Peljesac wine-producing area, one of the most productive in Croatia.

A small 240-berth marina caters for the large number of yachts cruising along the Peljesac channel to and from Dubrovnik. Shelter in the marina is good, although strong W winds send in a swell.
