Bacina Lakes represent a beautiful area of clean and pure nature. They consist of seven lakes, of which six of them form a blue collar. Lakes are located near the port of Ploce and the estuary of the Neretva River, between the Adriatic Sea and the southern slopes of the Nature Park Biokovo.

The lakes are relatively small, but are among the most interesting phenomena in karst hydrography. The bottom of Bacina lakes is below sea level, and their surface areas above sea level, which makes this area very attractive for active holidays.

Bacina Lakes are formed of six connected lakes and one separated lake. Crnisevo lake is 34 meters deep which makes him the deepest lake there. Only one lake, Vrbnik, is not connected to the other lakes and it is the smallest lake of all seven of them.
