Only 12km to the west of town Korčula lies the small village Račišće. This picturesque seaside resort offers accommodation in many modern apartments, villas and holiday homes. Taverns by the sea offer an abundance of gastronomic pleasures with their traditional Dalmatian dishes made from fresh fish, home-grown vegetables and olive oil, all accompanied by a "good drop" of premium Korčula wine. If you head west of Račišće, the beautiful beaches of Vaja and Samograd invite you to spend joyful long summer days there.
