CRAZY TRAVELIST ABOUT ISLAND PROIZD
The island of Ošjak is characterized by peace, tranquillity and simplicity so it is no wonder that its visitors have been calling it Love Island for decades.
That is so true, because once you come here it is so easy to forget the everyday rhythm of the hectic city life, and its untouched nature, aromas of the Mediterranean, crystal-clear sea, sunshine and heat always remind the visitor of the beauty of existence and the wonder of nature!

There is a walking path leading through a dense pinewood covering the entire island, so you can walk to easily accessible rocks and places where you can sunbathe, swim in the sea and relax.

On the western side of the island, right next to the walking path, there is an interesting cave surrounded with rocks and the sea, making a beautiful sight of a unique natural beauty.

Here you will find no traces of city life. There is nothing here except the sea, pinewood and crickets, and all those who like the untouched beauty of nature will discover the Mediterranean as it once was and find, even if only for a little while, "their place in the sun"!

Ošjak is only a ten-minute boat ride from the Vela Luka town centre.

During the summer months there are organized tours to both islands and the boat ferries across several times a day. You can access the islands on your own, by your own boat, a taxi-boat, or you can rent a boat from the local tourist agency.
