Najčešće drvo je bor, i to alepski bor (Pinus halepensis), pinija (Pinus pinea) i dalmatinski crni bor (Pinus nigra dalmatica). Na otoku uspijevaju i čempres (Cupressus) te guste samonikle šume česvine, crnike (Quercus ilex), divlje masline, rogača i lovorike. Na Korčuli ćete vidjeti i palme,

KORČULU DO B RO DO Š LI NA OTOK eukaliptus, bugenviliju, oleandre, pitosporu i razne vrste kaktusa. Na otoku raste samoniklo ljekovito i aromatično bilje: kadulja, ružmarin, lavanda, smilje, metvica, majčina dušica, mravinac, mažuran itd. Mnogo je jestivih trava i biljaka. Početkom jeseni beru se razne vrste gljiva, a u proljeće šparoge i bljušt. Na Korčuli raste i endemska biljka crna orhideja. Vela Luka je Iocus classicus te vrste orhideje, tj. mjesto gdje je pronađen njezin prvi primjerak, koji je iskorišten kao uzorak za opis vrste. Taj primjerak čuva se u Botaničkom muzeju u Zürichu. Ista vrsta orhideje, osim na otoku Korčuli, pronađena je još jedino u Italiji na poluotoku Monte Gargano. Rasprostranjena je na vrlo welcomte to the island of korčula korčula of island the to welcomte ograničenu području. Od ukupno 25 000 poznatih vrsta orhideje u svijetu, samo jedan posto raste u Europi. Od toga, na Korčuli uspijeva 35 različitih vrsta orhideje. Na Korčuli ćete pronaći i mnogo održavanih vinograda i maslinika. U životinjskom svijetu ističu se inače rijetki čagalj (Canis aureus dalmaticus) i mungos (Mungos mungo) te mnoštvo ptica pjevica. Na otoku žive razne vrste divljači: zečevi, fazani, divlje patke, veprovi, a na otočiću Badiji možete pronaći i jelene. More je bogato ribom, rakovima, školjkama, ježincima. Ljudi i povijest Stanovnici Korčule žive iskorištavajući sve blagodati modernog doba, a istodobno poštujući tradiciju i život u skladu s prirodom. Gotovo svaka obitelj obrađuje zemlju. Najčešće uzgajaju vinovu lozu i masline uz posao koji im osigurava egzistenciju, a neke obitelji žive isključivo od njihova uzgoja. Teško je utvrditi koje je mjesto na otoku najstarije; neki kažu Pupnat, neki Blato, ali sigurno je da je Korčula naseljena od davnina. Najprije su ga naselili Iliri, zatim Grci i Rimljani, a u 7. stoljeću došli su Hrvati. Svi su oni na Korčuli ostavili trag; svaki kutak otoka čuva tajne davne prošlosti. To je dio ljepote i bogatstva tog, u turističkom smislu, još 6 neotkrivenog otoka. while the maximum temperature rises up to 40 °C. Snow falls very seldom during winter, and is quite a special experience for the inhabitants. The average sea temperature in March is 12, 9 °C, and 22, 3 °C during the summer. The most frequent wind during the summer is the west wind – maestral, and the southeast – jugo or northwest – tramontana during the winter. Korčula is one of the most forested Adriatic islands. Pine trees are the most frequent – Aleppo pine (Pinus halepensis), Pinus pine (Pinus pinea), Dalmatian black pine (Pinus

nigra Dalmatica). There are a lot of cypress KORČULU DO B RO DO Š LI NA OTOK trees (Cypressus) and thick, wild woods of holm-oak, wild olives, carob and laurel. You can also see palm-trees, eucalyptus, bougainvillea, oleander, Australian laurel and various cacti. There are also indigenous therapeutic and aromatic plants: sage, rosemary, immortelle, lavender, mint, thyme, oregano, marjoram, and many edible plants. At the beginning of the autumn, one can find different sorts of mushrooms, and asparagus and black bryony in the spring. There is also the endemic black orchid on Korčula island. Vela Luka is mentioned as «Locus classicus» of this orchid (the place where the first example of the plant was found welcomte to the island of korčula korčula of island the to welcomte and used as a sample for the first description of its kind). There are 35 different species of orchid that you can find on the island of Korčula. The most interesting animals that can be found on the island are: a rare jackal (Canis aureus Dalmaticus), mongoose (Mungus mungo) and a variety of birds and song-birds. The wildlife of the island includes rabbits, pheasants, wild geese, boars and even deer, which can be found on the small islet of Badija. The sea is rich with fish, crustaceans, shells and sea-urchins. People and history Today the inhabitants of Korčula use all the benefits of the modern age, while at the same time they respect traditions and live in harmony with nature. Almost every family is engaged in agriculture, mostly wine grape and olives, along with an additional job if needed. Some families live solely from agriculture. It is hard to establish, with certainty, which place on the island is the oldest. Some say Pupnat, some Blato. What is certain, however, is that the island of Korčula has been inhabited from ancient times. The first to arrive were the Illyrians, followed by the Greeks and Romans. The Croats arrived in the 7th century . All of these tribes left their mark on the island; every place contains secrets of ancient history. This is part of the beauty of this, for guests, still undiscovered island. 7 Arheološko nalazište - Vela Spila
