Your sejour in Tučepi will mean for you swimming, snorkling or scuba-diving in the crystal sea, trekking or climbing the magnificent Biokovo mountain-both in the same day if you wish, plenty of sightseeing to go along and all sorts of sports activities in town's modern facilities. However, should you decide to take a trip outside of Tučepi, say, to have a drive or to sail along the coast, admire monuments of Split or Dubrovnik or visit the islands of Brač, Hvar, Korcula-you will easily rent a car, scooter or a bicycle, catch a boat to the islands as all these services are available at your convenience. Please note the modern small harbour only 100 m away fit for 200 boats, should you arrive with one.

If you come between May and September, then you won't be able to miss on swimming and sunbathing. Fortunately, Villa Ancora is practically on the beach, so you won't have to make those long trips to the beach, and you will be able, if you wish so, to jump right into the sea when you wake up in the morning, for example. If you are a naturist, then you would probably appreciate the fact that Tuččepi naturist beaches rank very high in terms of seclusion and scenic beauty.
