Very nice swim location - unfortunately, also very good and safe harbouring place for all smaller (and not so small) sea vessels. One can easily decide how long a swim shall be: from some 200-300 meters, to 3000 meters or more (around the entire Lovište Bay). Stray out of the Bay, and the Sea is the limit - jAs in every popular and tourist-infested location, one shoud be really careful about sea traffic.
Location
Getting there
First you need to get to Orebić, a small town on the South shore of Pelješac Peninsula, sitting almost directy opposite the much more famous Old Korčula Town, with its stone walls and towers. Once you get to Lovište, a very small, cozy place at the very tip of Pelješac, everyting is at your fingertips and accessible by walking. You simply don't need any inside information, as you can discover pretty much everything by yourself, doing your own explorations.
Accessibility
Easy. No safety issues or hazzards that I know of.
