The Balkan coastline holds a hidden labyrinth of four thousand islands
In short: Explore the stunning Mediterranean landscape stretching from Slovenia to Albania. This film examines the intricate geography of the Balkan coast, where thousands of islands transform a 550-kilometre coastline into a complex maritime network.
The video traverses the shared waters of Slovenia, Croatia, Montenegro, and Bosnia. While the straight-line distance of the Croatian coast measures 550 kilometres, the presence of approximately 4,000 scattered islands significantly extends the navigable shoreline. The journey highlights the Mediterranean beauty of the region, from the museum-like ports of Split and Korcula to the unique fjord-like landscape of Kotor in Montenegro.
