Korčula By Night

Although Korčula is beautiful by day, with its natural beauty and historical landmarks, there’s something magical about it in the nighttime too. It’s well known that the most beautiful time of the day on the Mediterranean coast is sunset, but the day doesn’t end when it falls dark.

Korčula actually has a good offer of bars and nightlife, so you don’t have to worry about what to occupy yourself at night. Just like during the day, there’s something for everyone, especially in the summer with all the events and festivals.

Discovering the romantic side of the island
There’s something about summer evenings on Adriatic islands. Everything simply turns magical once the dark falls and all the old town cores turn into movie scenes. Discovering the old town by night is a unique experience and it’ll make you fall even more in love with Korčula. Explore the narrow streets surrounded by stone walls and romantic steps which are a perfect spot for eating ice cream.

A lot of the landmarks are visible in the nighttime too, but in different light so you’ll get a new perspective on what you’ve seen during the day.

Discover the nightlife
Nights on Korčula don’t have to consist solely of strolling through the city. There are some great nightclubs and bars for those looking to have fun and dance.

A good suggestion is Dos Locos Bar. This is a nightclub beloved by locals, located on a narrow street near the bus station. In the summer, you’ll find a lot of people in front of it and you’ll meet some new interesting people in no time.

If you prefer live music to DJs, you’re in for a treat. A lot of bars and cafes have live music in the evenings ranging from jazz and rock to pop or Croatian country music. Some of those are Akademija, which books great jazz and rock musicians, and Dno Dna which is a beloved local café and pub.

For a more chill atmosphere, head to Tramonto Cocktail Bar or Massimo Cocktail Bar. They both have a wide offer of drinks, chill music, and a relaxing atmosphere.

Explore the street events
If you prefer going to festivals and street events rather than in bars or clubs, Korčula has a lot to offer. We’ve covered only several festivals in our list of events in Korčula. There are many more music festivals which take place all year round so you can rest assured that something will be going on when you arrive.

Even if you miss all the festivals, there’ll definitely be some street musicians. You’ll stumble upon this kind of concert a lot in Croatia, and while they’re free to listen to, they accept donations.

If you’d like to see a particular festival like the Korkyra Baroque Festival, check the official tourist website of Korčula for dates in advance.

Relaxing after a day of exploring
After all, not everybody wants to explore the island 24/7. Why not just rest in your villa after a long day of marvelling at the beauty of Korčula? This way, you can prepare for the next day, new adventures, and memories, and skip the hangover and tiredness.

Korčula has something to offer to everyone, both during the day and at night. That’s why it’s easy to vacation here with a group of people of different interests – everyone can find a suitable activity. You just have to explore the official website and check out events beforehand so you can plan your trip in advance. This way, you’ll get the most out of Korčula.
