Ston is rich with historical and cultural tradition, and the former value of Ston as the city of salt has been confirmed today in the plants of the oldest active saltworks in the world. The saltworks remained true to the tradition and a natural production method, which hasn't change since the era of antiquity. he very beginning of the peninsula is the location of a little, magical place, Mali Ston, which is connected to Ston by the longest preserved stone wall in Europe (5.5 km). Bay of Mali Ston, known for its cultivation of shellfish, especially oysters and mussels, is an indispensable destination for true lovers of seafood delicacies. A boat ride to the oyster farms and tasting of this natural aphrodisiac straight from the sea, paired with a glass of fine wine from Pelješac, make this place a real gourmet jewel.

Because of its geopolitical and strategic position, Ston has had a rich history since antiquity. Located at the gates of the peninsula, surrounded by three seas, protected by four hills, rich in fresh water and saltwater, fertile plains, it has been an important political, cultural and ecclesiastical centre.

Historic town great for sightseeing and amazing food in place of Mali Ston, distanced 1km away. It has Unesco protected city walls and salt production facility.

Medieval walls, 15th century salt pan still in use, finest oysters and local wine make a daytrip to Ston and Peljesac peninsula a great cultural and food experience.

Ston is for three things – its very well preserved town walls, its salt works, and its mussels! If you pay a visit to this part of the Peljesac Peninsula, we’re sure you’ll encounter at least two of these three things! The Town Walls The town walls are perhaps what this little town is best known for – and rightfully so. The walls are much longer than those of its more famous neighbor, Dubrovnik, at 5km in length. This makes them the longest defensive structure in Europe; they are sometimes referred to as the ‘European Walls of China”. Built-in the 14th and 15th centuries as an additional defense for the Republic of Ragusa (Dubrovnik) and to protect the lucrative salt pans in the area, the walls also consist of three fortresses – Veliki Kastil (in Ston), Korula (Mali Ston), and Prodzvizd Fort – and a number of towers. The walls once stretched for as long as 7km, but parts were destroyed following the fall of the Republic of Ragusa, and during the 19th century when the stone was used to construct other structures. The walls have long since been protected and, following extensive renovations, were open a number of years ago to visitors. The walls are open year-round to visit (with longer opening hours in summer). Saltworks in Ston The saltworks were established as far back as the 13th century (although the harvesting of salt in the area is thought to go back much further). The production of salt contributed to the wealth of the Republic of Dubrovnik. These days, the harvesting of salt from the sea is still done in a traditional manner. Saltworks You can not only visit the saltworks, but you can even work there! Summer camps exist every year for willing participants. Mali Ston and its oysters Mali Ston (meaning ‘Little Ston’) is about a kilometer and a half away on the upper side of the Peninsula. You can easily walk between the two places. Mali Ston Bay is where you will find the oyster beds that produce what are often said to be the most delicious oysters in the world! If you do make it to Ston or Mali Ston, you must consider dining at a local restaurant to try out some of these famed oysters, right from where they are farmed. Eating in Ston Baca is a smart choice in town – unsurprisingly, they have a number of oyster specialties, plus meat mains too. Stagnum is a great choice for all the family, with a wide range of fish and seafood dishes (you can’t go wrong with the fish plate, or the mussels or squid ink risotto), plus pizza and steak options if that’s the kind of thing you prefer. Kapetanova Kuca (‘Captain’s House’) is in an excellent location by the harbor in Mali Ston. As ever, oyster dishes rule the day but there are also excellent pasta choices and you must also try one of their desserts. Bebek in Mali Ston is a very suitable place if you want to merely sample some of the local oysters (and wine!) without having a proper sit-down meal. Wine Bar Ston is the place to go if you like to concentrate on sampling the local wine! Events in Ston One of the top events has to do with oysters (unsurprisingly!). The Festival of Oysters takes on and after 19th March each year, where you can sample oysters and local wines. And it’s also no surprise to see an event related to the town walls! The Ston Wall Marathon takes place in September.
