Lighthouse description

The lighthouse was built in 1875 on the island bearing the same name and is located in the middle of the Adriatic Sea, between the Italian and the Croatian coast. It is the most remote Croatian island and the lighthouse. It is situated 68 NM to the south of the town of Split and 26 NM to the south of the island of Lastovo. The island is 1400 m long and 300 m wide, and is covered by Mediterranean vegetation. The lighthouse is located 90 m above sea level in the central part of the island. There is a keeper at the lighthouse. As the lighthouse is located high on the hill, it is not recommended to older people and those not physically fit. The island is surrounded by nothing but the open sea which gives you an incomparable feeling of being separated from the rest of the world. The sea is very rich in fish. Due to the isolated location of the island, guests should bring their own supplies. The lighthouse can be reached by ferry from Split to Vela Luka (three and a half hours), then by car to Korčula and from Korčula by motorboat (3 hours). On the island of Palagruža, spend 2 weeks as Robinson Crusoe, take a break from the civilization, enjoy your solitude and find your inner self.
