Metković in 4k | Croatia / Kroatien / Neretva Valley / near Dubrovnik
Metković - the second largest town of Dubrovnik-Neretva County
Welcome to Metković dear traveler, the second largest town of Dubrovnik-Neretva County and the administrative, economic and cultural centre of the Neretva Valley. You will find the beautiful town Metković in the valley of the Neretva River, which opens towards the sea. Such a unique location offers great possibilities for enjoying your vacation.
Brief history of Metković
Metković was first depicted on a map in 1570 by Venetian cartographer Jacopo Gastaldi. The 15th and 16th centuries were characterized by conflicts between the Turks and the Venetians. The Treaty of Požarevac in 1718 determined the border between the Turkish Empire and the Venetian Republic. After this the Venetians destroyed and abandoned Gabela and founded a new port on the River Neretva, in today's Metković.
When Metković was connected with Mostar by railroad, it quickly became of of the main ports in the Adriatic; when it comes to the amount of goods passing through Metković, it was the second largest port, right after Rijeka. Unfortunately due to numerous bombings from the Second World War to the Croatian War of Independence, the importance of Metković port has fallen away.
See and do in Metković
Culture, history, nature and fun events await you in Metković. The remains of the ancient city of Narona, today's Vid are 4 km southwest of Metković, where the Archaeological museum Narona is built, as the first in situ museum in Croatia. Built on the locality of an antique temple dedicated to the 1st Roman Emperor Augustus, it shows a unique collection of antique statues made sometime in the 1st century B.C. The Archaeological museum Narona is a unique and unavoidable destination for all lovers of culture, art, history and archaeology.
If you're a nature lover, Metković will be one of the top destinations for you. Neretva delta is the best example of a rich and diverse bird population. You can observe all the birds in the ornithological collection of Natural History Museum Metković. Unfortunately, the Dalmatian pelican, griffon duck and marbled teal are gone, but even today we can see bitterns and ferruginous ducks nesting in the Neretva delta. The delta is an important resting place for millions of migratory birds but also a popular destination for many nature lovers.
In Predolac cave you can meet the unique cave shellfish Congeria, a living fossil, a tertiary relic and unique species to the Dinarides. You can also meet many other animal species living exclusively underground, and those who live in surface waters. All of those phenomena are unique in the world and will provide a unique experience to all tourists visiting this area.
Metković hosts interesting events both for locals and tourists. During May there is the traditional folklore event Na Neretvu misečina pala or Moonlight falls on Neretva, while July is reserved for traditional mullet fishing - Cipolijada and jumping into the Neretva contest.
There's also the Roman Night in Narona, which will transport you back in time to Roman times, where gladiator fights and slave markets were prominent. A part of the Day of the Neretva Principality in August is getting to know traditional crafts and village games, watch exciting contests and costume plays. The traditional Neretva boat marathon, Maraton lađa, where around 30 crews from the Neretva valley and abroad compete, is held on the 2nd Saturday in August.
In addition to rich cultural, historical and natural heritage, you will enjoy our gastronomy and wines, photo safari tours through the untouched swamp, and first of all the kindness and cordiality of our residents.
Welcome to the town of history, culture, nature and sports! Get a unique experience of Metković with Pointers Travel!

Croatia, Salona Ancient City - Roman Amphitheatre
Photographer:Samuel Magal (samuel@sites-and-photos.com)
The remains of Roman amphitheatre indicate that gladiator fights were held in the city of Salona just as in any part of Roman empire, until the fifth century when they were finally banned. The building was ellipsoidal in shape, with three floors on the south side and one floor on the north side, which was conveniently laid down on a natural hillside. Despite its relatively small size (125 by 100 meters outer shell and 65 by 40 meters the arena), Salonitan amphitheatre could have been occupied by 15.000 up to 18.000 spectators.

When vegans go on holiday!
Probably one of my best and most favourite videos I’ve had to edit. I love showcasing different experiences for people to see and recommending great places to visit. This one has been on my list for a year!
Now that filming is over and I needed a tan as well as a much needed break, I thought why not, let’s go Dubrovnik. Being massive nerds and fans of the epic tv series Game of Thrones, who could turn this down!?
On a serious not I highly recommend this place is you’re a foodie, love some sun (go in June and it’s 30 degrees!) beaches, walks, tourist sites and more. We even did a 7km kayaking tour! It was well worth it though for the sunset.
Places shown in my video are:
- Nishta/Only vegan restaurant in Old Town
- Old Town - Cersei’s walk of shame steps, The Red Keep, etc
-The Cruise Port (you’ll see sooo many boats coming in and out)
- Sunset Kayaking tour booked through Air B&B (So was put hotel)
- The City Walls/Takes over an hour and is 200 Kuna or you can get a pass which includes it as well as his tickets and entry’s I multiple museums
- The Pharmacy/Oldest pharmacy in Europe (1300’s)
- Maritime Museum
- History Museum
- Art Galleries
- Archaeological Museum
- Island of Lokrum/Quick 10 minute boat over and you can float in the salt water lake!
This is just a brief description of what there is to do. We got a good three days and got so much done even with some chill time.
If you have any questions please leave them in the comments below, if you enjoyed the video please give it a thumbs up.
Thanks for watching,

The Interesting Split Ethnographic Museum
Tourists usually bypass the very engrossing Split Ethnographic Museum because of limited sightseeing time. We, however, spent four days in Split and sightsee like we talk...Fast! The Ethnographic Museum is also free with the Split Card which certainly helps.
A person could probably spend most of a day inside. We zoomed through spending the most time looking at firearms, jewelry, clothes and, believe it or not, the Grandfather chairs. Visit if you have the time...
