If you are arriving by car from the direction of Split, then the easiest option is to take a ferry from the town of Split to Vela Luka on the island of Korcula. After Vela Luka, this ferry continues to Lastovo, so you an use it to visit this beautiful island by car from the island of Korcula. During high season there are 2 ferries from Split to Vela Luka each day, and the duration of the journey is around 2 hours 45 minutes.

Alternative to ferry Split - Vela Luka is to drive 130 kilometres to the south to Ploce, and then take ferry Ploce - Trpanj on the peninsula of Peljesac, then to drive from Trpanj to Orebic (20 km), and then take ferry Orebic - Korcula. This is good solution if you are coming from the direction of Split and you are going to the town of Korcula - in this way you avoid driving across the island of Korcula from Vela Luka (40 km). Previously, there was a better solution for this route, ferry Drvenik - Korcula but it has been discontinued in 2014.
Third option is to drive from Split all the way to Orebic on the peninsula of Peljesac (3 hours drive). You can use the highway from Split to Ploce. The road across Peljesac is very good and it was recently reconstructed, but you will need to cross the Croatian border and enter Bosnia and Herzegovina - we do not recommend this solution especially during high tourist season when traffic jams are possible.
If you are arriving to Korcula by car from the south, then your best solution is to drive directly to Orebic on the peninsula Peljesac and take one of many daily ferries that connect Orebic to Korcula - the journey lasts for only 15 minutes. While driving across Peljesac peninsula you will enjoy beautiful scenery and breathtaking landscape, and it will surely be one of the most enjoyable drives you ever had. The road is very good and there are many nice places where you can stop and refresh yourself, including many small family run wineries and restaurants.
