Mljet National Park

Mljet National Park

Mljet National Park is situated on the island of Mljet, a park that covers the western side of the Island. The Island itself dates back to the 1st century when Polace was a Roman settlement. The island receives a fair amount of visitors in the summer, especially when there is a daily catamaran, the Nona Ana, connecting Polace with Dubrovnik.
The Mljet National Park is adorned with thick forests, and 2 inland salt lakes, The “Great Lake” (Veliko Jezero) and the “Small Lake” (Malo Jezero). Interestly enough, the Benedictine monks constructed a monastery right in the middle of the “Great Lake”.
This unique park is free from poisonous snakes, although there are a total five recorded species of snakes and six species of lizards on the island. Mljet’s National Park’s largest predator is the Snake eagle which helps to maintain a healthy balance of nature on the Island.

Entrance into the park is reasonably priced at 90 Kuna (~12 €) for Adults, and 40 (~5.5 €) Kuna for children over 6, children under 6 can enter the park for free.
If you are planning a vacation to this delightful destination, you will many 4 star hotels, including the Hotel Odisej which was voted number # 1 by travelers.

Plan your trip today and have a one of a kind experience.
