Podgora

Tourist destination info Podgora

Podgora is a small place situated in the heart of Dalmatia, on the Makarska Riviera. Because of its favorable position, the place has been inhabited very early. It was first mentioned in 1571 in written records. The population has long been involved in fishing, marine and, more recently, tourism. Tourism started to develop in 1962 and became one of the most attractive tourist destinations in Dalmatia. Visit historical sites such as: tower on the Roscici hill (adapted for inhabitants over time), All Saints church (built in 1764), Chapel of the Sacred Heart of Jesus (was built in 1804 by the Mrkusic family), Punta Podgore with the medieval cemetery and St.Tekla Church (significant to local fishermen as a place to which a lot of fish come with the sea tides). During the summer months, Podgora organizes numerous manifestations and festivities such as the fishing night, folklore evenings and many others. This place is a true paradise for those who wish to spend their vacation away from the summer crowds, surrounded by the Mediterranean vegetation, beautiful beaches and crystal clear water. Sports and active vacation fans can enjoy football, basketball, volleyball, tennis, cycling, hiking, diving, sailing and many more water activities. If you would like to get acquainted with the gastronomy of this region and savor the specialties of this region, visit the restaurant “Obala”.

      Porgora a quiet destination, is now suitable for families with children than for young people. We really liked the location, the food is incredibly good everywhere. We would have liked to be more clubs and entertainment, but overall it was a holiday exactly as we wanted.
      The Lack of clubs :)

      Perfect place for those who value peace and independence
      Beautifully located, well-maintained house in a great location (5 minutes from the Korčula port). Surrounding the house is an olive grove, lavender, rosemary, orange trees, and pomegranates. A large pool with clean and well-filtered water - perfect for bathing both during the day and at night. The house (bathroom/kitchen) is equipped with everything needed. The owners are incredibly kind and helpful, eager to answer any question/request. A welcoming liqueur and delicious cake awaited us 😋. The house is situated high up, offering breathtaking views of the sea, the Pelješac peninsula, and Orebić. 3-10 minutes by car to a store, bakery, vegetable market, and fish market. I recommend it for couples and families with kids who never leave the pool 😁.

      A dream-come-true holiday.
      Perfect place to spend the time with your family, without any noise or crowds. Extraordinary view! Our kids loved to check the garden each day and find cucumbers, tomatoes or eggplants for dinner. Of course the best part, swimming pool all day! :-) Driveway well prepared, but very steep at some points, so please be careful when traveling with a big van. In this case, when in doubt, contact the owners, they will help for sure :-) Thank you to the owners for the hospitality and help!

      A dream on earth! A place you would never leave.
      We enjoyed our holiday soooo much. A lovely house up on the hill, marvelous vieuw, total privacy, a great swimmingpool (and even greater swimmingpoolboy ☺) a bakeoven in the open air and in 10 minutes in the cosy old town of Korcula. Thank you Ostoya en Jelena for your hospitality and making our staying so pleasant. Nothing we asked was to much for you. We surely will come back next year.

      Krásné prostředí, příjemní a vstřícní majitelé.
      Ubytování je na krásném místě (samotě) uprostřed olivového háje, ze kterého je krásný výhled na Pelješac. Malý nedostatek byl v tom, že každou noc byla slyšet nedaleká diskotéka.

      Ein Paradies
      Wir wohnten nicht nur inmitten der phantastischen Natur in einem entzückenden Haus, welches mit viel Liebe gestaltet wurde und mehr als genügend Platz bot. Es fehlte an Nichts. Die Gastgeberfamilie bestach durch Aufmerksamkeit, Zuvorkommenkeit Großzügigkeit und nicht zuletzt durch Herzlichkeit. All dies war in Summe für eine wunderschöne, außergewöhnlich entspannende Zeit verantwortlich - herzlichsten Dank dafür!
