Island Korcula - holiday apartments and houses Island Korcula lies in the central Dalmatian archipelago. It has an area 279,03 sq km (length 46,8 km, width 5,3-7,8 km) and a population 17038 inhabitants. The coast is rather indented and the highest peaks are Klupca (568m) and Kom (510m). The climate is mild; an average air temperature in January is 9,8 °C (49,6 °F) (in the town of Korcula) and in July 26,9 °C (80,4 °F); the average annual rainfall is 1100mm; the annual insolation reaches 2671 hours (Vela Luka). The island is largely covered with the Mediterranean flora; at some places are pine forests. Economy is based on farming, viticulture, fruit growing, fishing and fish processing, shipbuilding, processing of synthetic materials and tourism. Summer tourism has a long tradition on the island; nautical tourism has been recently developed. Major places on the coast are Korcula, Lumbarda, Vela Luka, Raciste, and in the interior Blato, Zrnovo, Smokvica, Cara and Pupnat. The regional road 118 connects major places on the island. Ferry lines connect the island of Korcula with the mainland. The island was inhabited as early as the Neolithic (cave Vela Spilja near Vela Luka, cave Jakasova Spilja above the cove of Rasohatica, Zrnovo) and the Bronze Age. A Greek colony existed here in the 6th and the 5th centuries BC; at that time the island was called Korkyra Melaina (remains of Greek habitations in Lumbarda, in the vicinity of Blato and in Potirna). From 35 BC the island was part of the Roman Empire; traces of Roman settlements have been discovered in the vicinity of Lumbarda, Vela Luka (locality Beneficij), Blago and on Pelegrin. On the collapse of the Western Roman Empire, the island became part of the Ostrogoth state (AD 493) and then came under the Byzantine rule (AD 555). In the 9th century it was taken by the Nerentani / Narentini and in AD 1000 by Venice. In 1180 the island came under the Hungarian-Croatian king (in 1214 the statute of the town and the island were passed). From 1221, during two centuries, the island had several rulers - rulers from Zahumlje, Venice (in 1298 the Genoese fleet defeated the Venetian fleet near Korcula), King Lodovic I (1358), Bosnian rulers (1390) and the Dubrovnik Republic (1413-1417). In the period 1420-1797 the island was under Venice but it retained its autonomy. Due to frequent attacks of the Turkish fleet and pirate ships (all until the beginning of the 18th c.) several important points on the island were fortified (especially the town of Korcula). - After the fall of Venice there was another period of various rulers (1797-1805 Austria, 1805-1813 France, 1813-1815 Great Britain, 1815-1918 Austria). Korcula was under the Italian occupation in the period 1918-1921, and after that was annexed to Croatia. The centre of the island, the town of Korcula, with its cultural and historical heritage, its town ramparts (similar to those of Dubrovnik) ranks among the favourite tourist destinations in southern Croatia. - As for the local economy, shipbuilding (town of Korcula, Vela Luka) and stone cutting (extraction of white marble from a quarry on the eastern coast of the island) have been important branches for centuries.

Otok Korčula - apartmani i kuće za odmor Otok Korčula se nalazi u arhipelagu srednje Dalmacije. Površina otoka iznosi 279,03 km2 (dužina 46,8 km, širina 5,3-7,8 km), broj stanovnika 17038. Obala je razvedena, klima blaga, sa prosječnom temperaturom u siječnju od 9,8 °C u gradu Korčuli, i sa prosječnom temperaturom u srpnju od 26,9 °C, prosječna godišnja količina oborina iznosi 1100mm, a broj sunčanih sati se penje i do 2671 (Vela Luka). Otok je zbog toga pokriven mediteranskom vegetacijom, prije svega makijom i borovima. Gospodarstvo se temelji na ribarstvu i preradi ribe, poljodjelstvu, vinogradarstvu, brodogradnji, uzgoju voća i turizmu; ljetni je turizam još davno razvijen, dok se nautički tek počeo razvijati. Jedna od većih mjesta su prije svega Grad Korčula, Lumbarda, Vela Luka, Račišće, a u unutrašnjosti Blato, Žrnovo, Smokvica, Čara i Pupnat. Regionalna cesta 118 povezuje glavna mjesta na otoku, a trajektne linije otok sa kopnom. Otok je naseljen još u Neolitiku, (špilja Vela špilja u blizini Vela Luke, Jakasova špilja ) i u brončanom dobu. Postojala je i grčka kolonija u 6. i 5. stoljeću prije Krista, a u to se vrijeme otok zvao Korkyra Melania (ostaci grčkih naseobina u Lumbardi, blizu Blata i Potrina). Od 35 godine prije Krista je otok pod rimskim carstvom, a rimski tragovi su također nađeni u Lumbardi, Vela Luci (lokalitet Beneficij), Blagu i Pelegrinu. Nakoh pada zapadnog rimskog carstva, otok postaje vlasništvom Ostrogota (493.), a zatim dolazi pod Bizant (555.). U 9. st. dolazi u ruke Neretvljana, a godine 1000. u ruke Venecije. Godine1180. dolazi pod vlast Ugarskog kralja. Od 1221., tijekom dva stoljeća otok je imao nekoliko vladara – vladare iz Zahumlja, Venecije (1298. genoveška flota je pobijedila venecijansku flotu blizu Korčule), Kralj Ludovik I (1358.), bosanski vladari (1390.) i Dubrovačka Republika (1413.-1417.). U periodu između 1420.-1797. otok je bio pod Venecijom, ali je zadržao svoju autonomiju. Zbog učestalih napada turaka i pirata sa mora (sve do 18. st.), strateška mjesta otoka, posebice oko grada Korčule, postaju male tvrđavice u svrhu obrane. Nakon pada Venecije, još se nekoliko vladara izmijenilo na ovom području; 1797.-1805. Velika Britanija, 1815.-1918. Austrija. Pod talijanskom okupacijom je Korčula bila u periodu od 1918.-1921., a te godine se pripojila Hrvatskoj. Centar otoka, grad Korčula, sa svojim kulturnim i povijesnim naslijeđem, sa gradskim bedemima sličnim onima u Dubrovniku, je zasigurno među interesantnijim gradovima južne Dalmacije. Što se gospodarstva tiče, brodogradnja (gra Korčula, Vela Luka) i kamenolom (vađenje bijelog mramora sa istočne strane otoka) su stoljećima bili važni za ovaj otok. Što znači uv-k ?
