Apartments in Korčula Prigradica

Prigradica is a small village on the island Korčula. It is 4 kilometers away from Blato, 12 from Vela Luka and 45 kilometers long road leads to the town Korčula. Due to its special position, Prigradica lays in one of the earliest inhabited bays on the island. It is located on the north of the island with a panorama on the island Hvar.
