Discovering the Charm of Sailing in Mljet: A Visit to Polače Sailing in the Adriatic is an unforgettable experience, but few destinations captivate the heart quite like the island of Mljet in Croatia. Known for its lush landscapes, pristine waters, and tranquil atmosphere, Mljet is a sailor’s paradise. Among its many hidden gems, Polače stands out as a must-visit location for those exploring the island by boat. Setting Sail to Mljet Mljet is one of the southernmost islands in Croatia, located just a short sail away from Dubrovnik. The journey itself is a visual feast, with the deep blue waters of the Adriatic Sea contrasting against the rugged coastline dotted with ancient forts and charming villages. As you approach Mljet, the island’s dense pine forests and dramatic cliffs come into view, promising adventure and relaxation in equal measure. Arriving in Polače: A Natural Harbor Polače, situated on the northern coast of Mljet, is one of the island’s oldest settlements and its largest natural harbor. The bay is exceptionally well-protected, making it a favored anchorage for sailors. As you glide into Polače, you’re greeted by the sight of the village’s picturesque waterfront, lined with traditional stone houses and lush greenery. The calm, crystal-clear waters invite you to drop anchor and take in the serene surroundings. Exploring Polače: History and Nature Polače is not just a beautiful anchorage; it’s also steeped in history. The village is named after the ancient Roman palace, the remains of which still stand proudly near the harbor. These ruins, dating back to the 5th century, are among the best-preserved on the island. Wandering through the remains of this once-grand structure, you can almost hear echoes of the past, adding a layer of historical intrigue to your visit. Beyond its historical significance, Polače is a gateway to the natural wonders of Mljet National Park, which covers the western third of the island. The park is famous for its two saltwater lakes, Veliko and Malo Jezero, connected to the sea by a narrow channel. A short hike or bike ride from Polače will take you to these serene bodies of water, where you can swim, kayak, or simply enjoy the breathtaking scenery. The park is also home to a wealth of flora and fauna, making it a haven for nature lovers. Dining and Relaxing in Polače After a day of exploration, Polače offers a variety of local eateries where you can indulge in delicious Croatian cuisine. Fresh seafood is the highlight here, often caught the same day and prepared with locally sourced ingredients. Enjoy a leisurely meal at a waterfront restaurant, savoring the flavors of the Adriatic while watching the sunset over the harbor. For those who prefer a more relaxed pace, Polače’s laid-back atmosphere is perfect for unwinding. Whether you’re lounging on your boat, taking a quiet stroll through the village, or simply sitting by the water with a glass of local wine, Polače invites you to slow down and soak in the beauty of the island. A Sailor’s Dream Sailing around Mljet and visiting Polače is a journey that combines the best of nature, history, and Croatian hospitality. The tranquility of the harbor, the richness of the surrounding landscapes, and the warmth of the local community make Polače a destination that lingers in your memory long after your sailing adventure ends.
