Skrivena Luka, Harbor settlement on Lastovo island, Croatia.
Description
Skrivena Luka sits in a sheltered bay on the southern coast of Lastovo island, naturally protected from strong winds and rough seas. The settlement spreads along the harbor with a handful of houses built right at the water's edge.
History
The settlement began as a Roman trading post and later became a permanent fishing community. This connection to the sea has shaped it ever since.
Culture
The handful of residents here maintains traditional fishing practices and prepares local Dalmatian dishes from their catches. These customs shape daily village life and connect people to the sea.
Practical
Everything here is within walking distance, arranged compactly around the harbor, making it easy to navigate the small settlement. Summer months can bring crowding, so earlier or later in the season offers a quieter experience.
Did you know?
The waters here maintain a constant temperature year-round because underground springs mix with the Adriatic Sea. This makes the bay particularly interesting for water activities.
