Bacina is a village in southern Dalmatia, 7 km west of
Ploce; elevation 40 m. Bacina Lakes are a frequent tourist destination.
They abound in freshwater fish but there are also grey mullets, which
made the Lakes their natural habitat after the tunnel drilling. The area
is a true promised land for nature-lovers and anglers.

The
ruins of the ancient town of Narona are located in the village of
Vid some 4 kilometres west of Metkovic. The town was situated on
the hillsides at an altitude of 58 metres and was built according
to a Graeco-Illyrian urban concept, spreading in the form of a fan
towards the east. Its eastern flank remained unfortified, with the
Neretva river forming a natural protective wall. The round towers
on the hilltop, which date back to the 4th-3rd c. B.C., represent
the relics of the earliest defensive walls. In the mid-3rd c. B.C.
the town walls reaching to the Salona-Bigestea-Narona road were
built, parts of which have been preserved to the present day. In
the 1st c. A.D. the town began to expand eastward, and in the late
2nd c. A.D. its fortifications were reconstructed during the Marcomanni
wars.
