Mljet - Boats

After Hvar we went to Mljet, which is largely taken up by a nature reserve. We went to see the salty lakes in the reserve, which were created by some Monks who flooded the valley via a sea channel, in order to protect themselves in their island monastery from the angry villagers. Sounds like something out of Frankenstein, but I can't recall exactly what the villagers were angry about.
I loved all the quaint boats around, so decided to go for the arty black and white old boat compilation.
