Soline

Soline Green island of Mljet, situated in the southern part of the Adriatic sea, is well known for its rich cultural and natural heritage, dense Mediterranean vegetation and transparent and clear sea with great variety of sea life.

The island is known as one of the last habitat of monk seal as well - the rare and endangered sea mammal which unfortunately does not exist in the Adriatic sea any more. Since the medieval ages, it has been well known for its exceptional products: goat cheese, vine and honey after which it was named (Melita and Meleda are ancient names for Mljet, both coming from the word mel - honey).

Today, many lovers of the authentic nature discover this island in their escape from the urban life. In the extreme north-western part of the island is the submerged valley of Mljet Lakes: Malo and Veliko (Small and Big). Small Lake (area 24 hectares, depth up to 29.5 m) is connected with a 30-m long canal with Big Lake. Big Lake (area 145 hectares, depth up to 46 m) is connected with the open sea by a shallow, 30-m long canal called Soline.
