ACCOMMODATION IN LIGHTHOUSE
The island was named after its interesting shape. Flat and low, it resembles a torpedoed WWII aircraft carrier. It is one of the most beautiful landscapes on the Adriatic.
Out of all lighthouses, Plocica, along with Struga, can accommodate the most people (max. of 14) and is perfect for a Robinson Crusoe type of holiday. The ground and first floor have an area of 165 square meters, while the yard is paved with stone and the tamarisks and century-old fig trees offer shade all day long.

TRANSFER
Bothway transfer for guests to the lighthouse is organized from Prigradica. Price of the transfer is 130 EUR per apartment and it is paid on the spot. Guests are transferred by Mr. Ante Petkovic on a fast rubber dinghy. The transfer to Plocica takes 10 to 15 minutes, depending on sea conditions. In case of unfavorable weather conditions or if the number of guests exceeds 7, guests are transferred on a larger boat with cabin. This kind of transfer is slower and takes from 30 to 45 minutes, depending on sea condition.
It is also possible to take a regular transfer from Split, but at a much higher price. Check our transfer price list.
You can reach Prigradica:
by ferry line Split - Vela Luka and by car to Prigradica (in the direction of Blato until you reach the left turn for Prigradica).
from Dubrovnik by car or bus via the Peljesac peninsula to Orebic and then by boat to the island of Korcula. Guests that arrive by car head directly from the town of Korcula to Prigradica on the other side of the island. Guests that arrive by bus get off in Vela Luka, where Ante Petkovic can pick them up if arranged in advance. There is also the possibility that Mr. Petkovic picks up guests in the town of Korcula. This service is charged 200 KN. Taxi services are also available.
