Transport in Mljet

The island of Mljet is one of the jewels of the Adriatic and that is why the western half has been declared a national park. No doubt this is the most striking part of the island and has thousands of places wonderful to see, but getting there is not so simple. Although it is a small island 37 miles long by 3 miles wide it can be difficult to get from where you left the ferry to the national park entrance. The ferries usually stop in Sobra, at the eastern end and to enter the park you must reach or Pomena or Polace. There are several ways to make the journey, one of them is on a local bus which lasts half an hour.
