According to EU Helpers, this Croatian geopark is scheduled to formally join the list of UNESCO World Geoparks in April of next year.

According to a statement issued by the Croatian National Tourism Board on September 8, in addition to the Vis archipelago and Papuk geoparks that were previously mentioned, Croatia now has three geoparks.

The Geopark is of exceptional importance, according to the Director of the Public Institution PP Biokovo Slavo Jaka, as it contains cultural, historical, and natural riches and showcases several types of geology as well as habitats for diverse plant and animal species.

At the same time, Imotski's mayor, Ivan Budali, reaffirmed the city's ongoing commitment to provide financial help. The next stage and a key objective, he added, is to build a contemporary tourist center inside the Geopark.

The UNESCO classification greatly raises the destination's awareness and opens the door to expanding tourism as a distinctive and lovely kind of selected tourism, according to the Director of the Tourist Board of Imota Luka Kolovrat.

Additionally, the Blue Lake, which is distinguished by its oval shape and various depths ranging from 300 to 500 meters, is one of the attractions of the Biokovo-Imotski Lakes Geopark. This lake's water level fluctuates yearly, occasionally plunging to astounding depths of up to 100 meters.

Blue Lake, which is on the borders of the historic town of Imotski, is a popular summer vacation spot where people congregate for swimming and leisurely activities.

Recognizing Biokovo Nature Park and Imotska Krajina as a geological gem within the Dinaric Karst area led to the decision to collaborate in creating the UNESCO Geopark Biokovo-Imotska Jezera. The goal of this collaborative effort was to use both regions' capabilities for the good of the neighborhood. As a result, the Biokovo Nature Park and the Imotska Jezera Geopark Association, both based in Imotski, collaborated to develop the concept for the upcoming UNESCO Geopark, Biokovo-Imotska Jezera, in 2019.
