About this Stone

This charming coastal town sits nestled between lush pine-forested mountains and the sparkling azure waters of the Mediterranean Sea. The elegant marina, countless cafes, and diverse restaurants create a vibrant atmosphere that draws visitors year-round. History lives here too—the well-preserved castle dating back to the Ottoman era stands as a reminder of the town's rich past, while the bustling bazaar overflows with local crafts and goods. What makes this place truly special is its claim to one of the world's largest natural harbors. Today that harbor pulses with life as a major center for yachting and sailing, welcoming enthusiasts from across the globe. Each May, the International Yacht Festival transforms the waterfront into a celebration of maritime heritage, cementing the town's reputation as a premier sailing destination.
