Kayaking into Dubrovnik

Kayaking from Korčula to Podobuce
The kayaks were launched from in front of the old walls, and we headed across the channel towards the Pelješac Peninsula. The calm waters we were crossing were teeming in history. Most importantly, in 1298 the Battle of Korčula was fought between the Venetians and the Genoese. As the smoke [...]

With a population variously quoted at 17, 18 and 23, the tiny medieval travel wonder of Hum on the Istrian peninsula in western Croatia is officially listed by the Guinness Book of Records as the smallest town in the world.

End of the Tour in Hvar Town
