Fifteen minutes from Korcula town – by bike, we're off to explore the beautiful countryside, through vineyards, past old chapels, Roman ruins to sandy beaches. During the Venetian era, bishops and nobles built their estates here.

There's the Psephisma of Lumbarda, a 3rd BC tablet written in Greek documenting the founding of the settlement, the oldest human written record discovered in Croatia.

We'll be cycling through olive groves and along charming village roads – Lumbarda is where Grk, an excellent white wine, is grown. May be a wobbly ride back to the marina!
