Croatian National Tourist LUCK (continued, p.2) The island of Mljet Our next stop was the island of Mljet (island in the southern part of Croatia, approx. Perevi.), Half of which is national park. We have heard that this place is a must to visit, so that they rose early and headed to the ferry, where we had to swim for two hours. To get to this island, no need to rent a boat, it distinguishes it from other islands. We wanted to go from Dubrovnik by ferry rather than by bus or bicycle, so that Mljet we just came up. We boarded the ferry, owned by D & V, this is partly state postal ferry service more affordable than "Yadroliniya" (the main Croatian ferry company, ca. Perevi.). The ferry stops first in a bay on the island of Mljet Collection, then in the village Pomena, which is located to the east, from the national park. We toured around the Big Lake and partially around the Lesser. Picturesque bay on the island of Mljet Alas, we did not destined to get to the Benedictine monastery, which was located on a separate island. Hike to the monastery, plus payment for the boat included in the ticket price in the national park. Next time we will definitely go down. The roads on the island, especially in the park, gravel. I would not advise him to go on a bike. After lunch in town we went to Polache Coll. My advice - do not try to eat in Govedari (hotel Polache, approx. Perevi.). There's cute, but absolutely no food. Polache was not ready to meet the hungry cyclists. We bought it one of the worst of our dinners. The road from Polache went uphill, and then along the mountain ridge down to the Collected Works. The road to Mljet road went under the slope 9-10%, in contrast to 4-8% on other islands. But despite that, we liked to drive it more than on the roads of the national park. Sunset in Zhulyane And again we had to go down to the pier in time for the ferries "Yadrolinii, his trip - to the bay on the peninsula of Peljesac Prapratna. This is a long peninsula, connecting Dubrovnik and Split. Getting off the ferry, we were faced with a group of 6-8 the Scots, who just sat on it. They rode bicycles from the port town of Orebic on the other side of the Peljesac Peninsula to the bay Prapratna, and the whole day was blowing a strong headwind. With us also stopped to speak Irish couple on road bikes, seeing Dan on Irish cycling jersey. After talking with the Scots and Irish, we set out with renewed energy and belief in what we expect good roads and a tailwind! End of day on the peninsula Peljesac When it became clear that this is only Prapratna port, we asked a local sailor, chinivshego network, where you can stay overnight. The time was close to 17:00. He advised to go to Stone, a large town about five kilometers east of the port, or Zhulyanu, a fishing village 23 kilometers to the west, just west from the very beginning and were going to go. When we left the main road, we suddenly got sick to go to Stone. On the road, there was no truck, the wind and we are led to the west. We got to the crooks, just before sunset. Sunset over a backwater in Zhulyane was the perfect finale of the day. We stopped and ate at the store, owned by a German family. I advise to visit Zhulyanu anyone who wishes to visit a small Croatian fishing village. And another note of the information for future visitors to Croatia: Irish riders later told us that they liked to stay in the Stone, bright and cheerful city. Beach Zhulyane As for us, we were satisfied that the chosen Zhulyanu, not Stone, apparently, we have reached the point of our journey where every choice will be successful. Start material:
