Orebic is situated at the south-western part of the Pelješac peninsula, at the bottom of the St. Elias hill (Sv. Ilija 2900 ft.). That picturesque sunny townlet was the town of sea captains and a sailors. Many documents and various articles from its famous seafaring past can be found in the Maritime museum of Orebi?.
Orebic offers to its visitors pure enviroment, untouched nature with hundred years old pines and cypress trees almond trees, agavas and flowers. Long sandy beaches and numerous small bays with cristall clear sea - water.

On the hill nearby there is the Franciscan Monastery (1470) dominating the scenery and housing the museum. Tourists are offered an impressive and memorable view from here to unique beauty of this region.

The small town and the most famous settlement located on the southern cost of the peninsula Peljesac, right across Korcula. The limestone hills, St. Ilija (961 m) and Vizanjica (443 m) partially protect it from the northern wind -bura. The surrounding area is covered with rich Mediterranean vegetation (pines, almonds, citrus fruits). The most famous beach is in the cove Trstenica. The town used to be an important marine center. Earlier it was called Trstenica, but in the 16th century it was named after the family of captains from Bakar. The town has the Naval Museum. In the vicinity, two kilometers from the town, there is the Gothic-renaissance Franciscan monastery from the 15th century with the church built by local masters.

Orebic is an important tourist resort, offering various accommodation facilities (hotels, apartments), long sand beaches, numerous small coves and clear seawater, as well as sports and recreational facilities and opportunities (tennis courts, football; yachting, windsurfing), outstanding gastronomic offer - especially seafood and famous Peljesac wines (Dingac, Postup) - and pleasant walks in the surroundings. The cemetery near the church of Our Lady of Karmen above Orebic, the final resting place of Peljesac-born captains, offers a beautiful view on the island and the town of Korcula, as well as on numerous islets in the Pelje-sac Channel. Below the Franciscan monastery and the church is a forest of cypress, protected as a -forest park. The ships passing through the Peljesac Channel sound their sirens to greet the church of their patron saint and the resting place of deceased captains, and are replied by sounding of the monastery bells.

Close to the monastery is the village of Karmen with several mediaeval monuments. It is the starting point of walking tours to the picturesque upper villages of Ruskovici, Stankovici and Podvlastica. One of the favourite ascents to the peak of Sveti -Ilija (St. Elias) (961 m) also starts here.
