Uspon na otok Jabuka kolovoz 2025.

The island of Jabuka is an uninhabited volcanic island in the Adriatic Sea, located west of the island of Vis in Croatia. It belongs to the Dalmatian archipelago and is the far from the Croatian mainland or other land masses. The island is characterized by steep, almost vertical cliffs rising up to 100 meters, making it very difficult to approach or land on. Jabuka is known for its volcanic magnetite rock, which causes magnetic anomalies that can interfere with compass readings, and it is frequently struck by lightning due to its iron-rich composition.

The island has a unique ecosystem with protected endemic species such as the Dalmatian Wall Lizard and several endemic plants. It is also part of an Important Bird Area, hosting breeding colonies of species like shearwaters and Eleonora's falcons. Despite the rough conditions and remoteness, the surrounding sea is rich in fish, making it a historically significant fishing area, although fishermen tend to avoid it due to its dangers.

Jabuka is also famous for the mysterious Jabuka Carnation, a botanical enigma since it was first identified but has not been located on the island since the early 20th century. The island's harsh environment and isolation contribute to its allure and mystery
