Even though some beautiful Orebic pebble beaches and public hotel beaches with pools are just 3 min walk from the house, hillside and valleys on Peljesac are also something worth exploring. That is also because this is one of the best wine regions in Croatia. Driving through the peninsula you’ll discover vast wineyards in the inner part or those maybe a bit more impressive wineyards on the hill banks along the southern shoreline. Wine tasting at the local wineries is of course a must.
