Croatia’s Green Island
By Linda Tancs
It’s high season at Mljet National Park, Croatia’s southernmost national park. Its lush, green vegetation has earned it the nickname, “the Green Island.” The majority of the park is covered by forest and, among its many charms, you’ll find two saltwater lakes, the Great Lake and the Small Lake. The Isle of Saint Mary sits within the Great Lake and includes a Benedictine monastery. Park admission includes a visit to it by boat. The villages of Polače and Pomena are connected to the lakes by hiking trails, one of the most popular activities in the park. Get there via ferry from Dubrovnik.
