Klek is a peninsula in the Adriatic Sea located southwest of Neum, Bosnia and Herzegovina. It encloses the Bay of Neum, separating it from the larger Bay of Mali Ston and the Pelješac peninsula.{{Sfn|Klemenčić|2000}} At the cape of the peninsula, a few hundred meters from the shore, is a small islet as part of a reef consisting series of bare rocks appearing under the water table ({{langx|sh|hrid, hridina}}). It is called Lopata, and at the tip of the reef there is a lighthouse, also called Lopata. At the very tip of the peninsula, there is another lighthouse, called Rep Kleka.{{cite web |title=Granica općine Neum u Malostonskom zaljevu od 1974. |url=http://www.infobiro.ba/article/136054 |website=infobiro.ba |publisher=Oslobođenje |access-date=6 February 2022 |date=29 November 2005}}{{cite web |title=Neum i granični problemi |url=https://www.hercegovina.info/hercegovina/neum/neum-i-granicni-problemi/52814/ |website=www.hercegovina.info |access-date=6 February 2022 |language=hr |date=13 December 2012}}{{cite web |title=Lighthouses of Bosnia and Herzegovina |url=https://www.ibiblio.org/lighthouse/bih.htm |website=www.ibiblio.org |access-date=6 February 2022}}

The tip of the peninsula, known as Rep Kleka (also known as Ponta repa and Turski rep), that lies directly across the eponymous village of Klek in Croatia, is disputed between Bosnia and Herzegovina and Croatia; they last negotiated its status in the 1999 Neum Agreement.{{Sfn|Arnaut|2014|pp=160-164}}
