KučiÅ¡te (KućiÅ¡te) is a small fishing village on the southern coast of the in Dubrovnik-Neretva county in Croatia. It faces the narrow strip of water separating the peninsula from Korcula Island. Most of the buildings form a thin strip along the coastline and, because of the long and profitable sea-faring traditions, some are quite grand. The settlement has several jetties, with potential overnight mooring possible. Some of the houses are available to rent as holiday apartments and a little along the coast to the west are a couple of camp sights, mostly catering for the wind surfing fraternity.
