Did You Know?
The Malostonski Channel and Neum Bay hide fascinating secrets of brackish springs and vruljas. Vruljas are freshwater springs located beneath the sea’s surface, named for their resemblance to the visual effect of water boiling. The lack of detailed data makes this hydrogeological phenomenon intriguing, and the Mediteranetum botanical reserve will provide an excellent platform for researching and preserving this unique ecosystem.
The municipality of Neum, with direct access to the Adriatic Sea, is set to become the home of the future botanical-floral reserve. With its 24.5 km long coastline, this destination will captivate numerous nature enthusiasts and researchers with its rich biodiversity.
Establishing a protected area and botanical garden on the Neum-Klek Peninsula would positively impact tourism, the local population, and visitors, making Neum an even more attractive destination for sustainable tourism and the exploration of the natural beauty of Bosnia and Herzegovina.
