Bunski kanali

The Buna Channels are a natural phenomenon on the Neretva River, formed by fluvial processes at the point where the Buna River flows into the Neretva, near the village of Buna, south of Mostar, along the M-17 main road Mostar–Čapljina. At this special spot, the entire Neretva flows into a narrow channel just over three meters wide and about 850 meters long, and over a tufa barrier it joins the Buna in a unique scene of tufa waterfalls.

After passing through the channel, the Neretva calms down and widens, taking on a more lowland character. The phenomenon is visible only at extremely low water levels, in the summer period, when dams have reduced the river to its biological minimum. The Buna Channels are a distinctive destination for photo tourism and nature researchers. There are proposals for legal protection of this area.
