An infamous hazard to navigation in the Adriatic, Palagruža is an isolated island in the middle of the Adriatic, 48 km south of Lastovo. The island is a sharp ridge of rock 7/8 mile long and about 330 yd wide. Construction of the lighthouse at the highest point of this isolated island was a considerable engineering triumph. Two apartments in the large building are available for vacation accommodations, with boat transportation provided from Korčula. ARLHS # CRO-012
