Location
Aminess Port9 Resort sits in peaceful Shell Bay (Uvala Luka) on Korcula Island, part of Croatia’s beautiful Dubrovnik Coast. The setting feels secluded yet practical: a pebble beach is just 100m away, there’s a small supermarket nearby for essentials, and the water taxi stop for Korcula Old Town is only a short walk along the waterfront.
Korcula’s walled Old Town, often likened to a mini Dubrovnik, is just 3km away. Stroll in along the coastal path or glide over by boat to explore narrow lanes, seafood restaurants and piazzas that look straight out of a film set. Inland, vine-covered hills and pine forest trails are perfect for gentle adventures between beach days.
