Geocache Description:


Bacina lakes

The Bacina lakes are located in Dalmatia (Croatia). They are named after the inland town of Bacina close to port of Ploce. The lakes are part of a picturesque landscape and surrounded by mountains. They are situated between Makarska and Dubrovnik.


It is a crypto-depression lake. Despite its proximity to the sea and the permeable nature of the karst area, they are fresh water lakes. The seven lakes cover an area of 138 hectares and they are named Ocusa, Crnisevo, Podgora, Sladinac, Vrbnik, Sipak and Plitko. Six of these lakes are linked. The largest lake is Ocusa and the deepest is the Crnisevo (34 m). The lakes are connected with the sea and at times the water can be brackish. Salty water is found at the bottom of the deepest lake Crnisevo.
