Saplunara on Mljet is a lovely large bay located at the Eastern tip of the Island. The place is well known for its sandy beaches Velika and Mala Saplunara and Blaca, surrounded by dense pine woods. Due to its sandy beaches, its name has roots in Latin word for sand – ‘sabulum’. The bay is opened to the southwest, so it has a lot of natural sunshine and is sheltered from Bura and Maestral winds. The bay itself is about one kilometer long and due to its secluded position, the waters here are very warm all year around. The bay has its restaurant, café, and a small shop.
After swimming the tour returns you to Cavtat or Dubrovnik port in the afternoon. Still, plenty of time left to do something else or just relax and check on the photos taken on this magnificent tour. Memories last forever.
