David Skoko: a place for me

To be in solitude, far from the hustle and bustle, is the dream of almost every businessperson. Staying in lighthouse apartments offers the adventure of Robinson Crusoe style tourism amid the blue of the Adriatic, and David Skoko reveals their unique charm. In addition, together with his friend Nikola Mijandrušić, he catches and prepares fish as an authentic gastronomic expression of Mediterranean island culture and identity.

David takes us to Učka and Velebit, mountains whose peaks offer views of the sea. Mountains are becoming popular again, both because of the intense heat that is hard to bear along the coast and because of their gastronomic offerings. Mountain infrastructure is important, and fortunately we have architects who create masterpieces in nature. David will introduce us to one of the best and most award-winning among them - architect, carpenter, and paraglider Ivan Juretić from Grobnik.

In our most popular tourist destination, peace and quiet can be found even at the height of the season. David Skoko will introduce us to Dubrovnik’s divers and take part in underwater tours through which tourists from all over the world experience the magic of the Elafiti region, while also joining efforts to clean the seabed. In this episode, the group Ribarev sin will also take part in such an action. In addition, they will prepare a Mediterranean gastronomic spectacle.

Chef David Skoko travels to the Neretva Valley to discover the authentic offerings of this fertile region. Pavo Jerković, a passionate ambassador of the Neretva, introduces him to the area’s potential and unique character. Photo safaris, rides in traditional Neretva boats (*lađe*), mandarin orchards, and kitesurfing have become a distinctive brand of the valley. In the gastronomic segment, Skoko explores kapelunga shellfish and uncovers the secret of the perfect Neretva-style *brudet*.
