The unique experience of sailing through pristine nature in parts of Neretva swamp, in authentic boats more than 120 years old has become a true attraction of this area. This adventure offers the opportunity to learn about flora and fauna, a variety of birds and traditional way of life in one of the oldest swamps in Europe. To complete the experience, there is a Neretva House you can only reach by boat.
“While enjoying eel and frog “brodetto” in a rustic ambience of Neretva House and listening to the silence around you, you will feel nostalgic about the past times when there was no hurry, when it seems that the time was waiting for the man to finish his work. A lot of people have truly experienced this symbiosis - why don’t you, too?” say the hosts. “Once, when you visit Neretva, you will always want to come back as many before you.”
