Responsible Travel
How to Explore Tučepi Sustainably
Walk Between Villages
The coastal path connects Tučepi with Makarska and neighbouring villages. Walking or cycling this route reduces traffic and lets you appreciate the Riviera at a natural pace.
Eat Locally & Seasonally
Choose family-run konobas serving fresh-caught fish, homemade olive oil, and local wine. Supporting these businesses preserves culinary traditions and keeps income within the community.
Respect Biokovo's Ecosystem
When hiking, stay on marked paths and take all rubbish with you. Biokovo's unique flora and fauna are protected by national law and fragile to human disturbance.
