Your destination
About Korčula
Korčula has three ferry ports and the two that matter sit at opposite ends of a 47 km island. Korčula Town puts you a few minutes from the walled Old Town; Vela Luka is 35 km west. Which one your sailing uses — and whether you have a car, because no vehicle ferry reaches Korčula Town at all — decides more about the day than the crossing time does.
