Modro oko, Protected lake in Dubrovnik-Neretva County, Croatia

The Modro Oko lake forms part of a flooded karst formation within a swampy valley along the lower Neretva River in southern Croatia.

The lake system, including Modro Oko and Desansko Lake, developed through geological processes in the Neretva Delta region between Croatia and Bosnia Herzegovina.

The nearby village of Desne maintains traditional connections to Saint George, locally known as Sv. Jure, reflecting the regional spiritual heritage.

Three airports serve the area: Mostar International at 23 miles, Bol at 45 miles, and Dubrovnik at 52 miles from the lake location.

The lake's ecosystem contains specific wetland biotopes that support diverse wildlife populations within the protected landscape area of southern Croatia.
