Imotski

Travel Guide

Blue Lake *
(Croatian: Modro jezero or Plavo jezero) is a karst lake located near Imotski in southern Croatia. Like the nearby Red Lake, it lies in a deep sinkhole possibly formed by the collapse of an enormous underground cave. The total depth from the upper rim is around 220 meters, while water depth varies with season. In spring, when the snow from surrounding mountains melts, it can reach 90 m, and in 1914 it reached 114 m, overflowing the southern rim. The lake is a popular destination for hiking and sight-seeing.

Maximum dimensions of the lake are around 800×500 m, but they significantly vary due to big changes in the water level. At the end of the summer the lake may completely disappear.

In 1907 a road was built descending to the lake. In 1942, an earthquake caused a large landfall resulting in reduction of the lake's depth.

Modro jezero
Insane beautiful blue karst lake in Imotski. 
Created by the collapse of an enormous cave. (Same as with the nearby Red lake.) 
Now you can make fantastic hikes along the craters and have a refreshing swim in the blue lake. Just awesome! 💦💙

8.6/10 Excellent! (312 reviews)
This hotel itself is very nice but the location is also the star. It sits on an incredible seaside walkway that has incredible beaches and views. The road down to the town and hotel was narrow and winding but well worth it! Great breakfast and beautiful pool areas. We went in October so we missed ...

Fin liten lägenhet med perfekt havsutsikt.
Vi var 6 personer (4 vuxna 2 barn) som bodde i lägenheten och den kändes för liten för oss. För upp till 4 personer hade den varit utmärkt. Läget var fantastiskt med havsutsikt och ca 20 meter till stranden. Köket var litet men funktionellt. Luftkonditioneringen fungerade, men var omodern då det ...
