Croatia’s Leading Edge Tourism Project Welcome Continued Its Journey South On May Twenty-Eight 2011, Reaching The Picturesque Town Of Lombarda On The Island Of Korcula After A Mixture Of Kayak And Bike Ride From Loviste On The Western Tip Of The Peljesac Promontory

The purpose of the project is to highlight Croatia’s natural beauty, rich cultural heritage and wide ranging tourism offer by travelling the length of the country using numerous adventure sports methods of transportation along a winding route which spells out the word “Welcome.” The route will be visible from Google Earth, permitting Croatian tourism to claim the title of the world’s biggest welcome.

Leaving the protected bay at Loviste, the team headed to the island of Korcula by kayak, encountering windy conditions in the open sea and, while they were forced to proceed with caution occasionally it did not hinder them from socialising with various sea turtles whom they came up against on the route.

After a short swim, the team paddled to the hamlet of Babina on the northwards coast, where a decision was made to change the upcoming route after neighbors informed them about routes to a giant wooded ravine.

Switching to bikes, the Welcome team made their way to the little known Kocje nature park, a natural phenomenon not faced anywhere else on the trip. Kocje is a formidable collection of limestone rock, as high as 20m in parts, hidden by dense vegetation. The effect is a natural warren of tunnels, cracks and caves with lots of the rock covered in green moss.

Kojce has been declared a specially protected reserve of forest vegetation, and some archaeologists believe it was inhabited by early man. A rather more fascinating theory has been put forward by an Italian professor of mathematics and physics which places Kojce as the sole entry point in the world for positive lines for magnetic force from Space.

Taking to the key road, the Welcome team continued their journey, finally arriving in the surprising traditional walled town of Korcula, one of the finest preserved stone towns on the coast. One of the primary traveller attractions in that town is that it is allegedly the birthplace of the great explorer Marco Polo, who would without doubt have advised the drive of the Welcome Project.

Cycling thru the town’s streets, the team then headed straight for their last destination for the day, the tiny hamlet of Lumbarda, where they finished the route for the letter “M” in the “Welcome” message. Due to some diversions from the planned route, especially on the island of Hvar, the letter “M” is not as clear as the rest, but still extraordinarily understandable.

With just the letter “E” to go, the project is entering its last stages, with arrival in Dubrovnik scheduled for June 3. The final stages include travelling along the Peljesac Promontory to Ston, before backtracking thru the Bosnian Riviera (the only time the project leaves Croatia) to the border city of Metkovic, and then back to Peljesac and on to the island of Mljet before a last kayak effort to Dubrovnik, as reported tagza.com.

Croatia is extremely gorgeous country and everyone who comes in this beautiful country, would like to have Croatia real estate. The Croatian real estate market is fairly well developed. Croatian land and Croatian home costs are still extraordinarily propitious, especially on the Dalmatian islands where properties like beautiful Croatia stone houses built in the normal style.

Also in the gorgeous Croatia consequential towns like Dubrovnik, Hvar, Zadar or Korcula there are amazing real estate and property opportunities to get prime location real-estate at fair prices. Foreign interest in purchasing property in Croatia, including the miniscule islands, all of a sudden grew two years gone. Until then foreigners didn’t believe this was a market a smart idea to invest in property.

Broker real estate are consultants in real estate and property in all areas of Croatia. Croatia has a large range of villas on Dalmatian islands, terraces in pictoresque old cities, homes close to the fully clear Adriatic, homes or any type of property or property for development in the major holiday maker and holiday home areas of Croatia, including Dubrovnik and Istria.

The near term rental market will grow with the amount of returning holiday makers. Untouched, relaxed, attractive, and safe, Croatia is one of Europe’s loveliest treasures. Everything a discriminating visitor or house consumer is searching for can be discovered here : clear as crystal seas, invariable fishing hamlets, and unspoiled beaches, Roman ruins, a spotless lake district, and medieval walled towns. Although real-estate costs in Croatia have been accelerating at a rate of between twenty percent and thirty p.c per annum lately, it isn’t too late to purchase.
