Dubrovnik to
Elafiti Islands

Three quiet islands just off Dubrovnik — Koločep, Lopud, and Šipan. Koločep and Lopud are car-free; Šipan, the largest, has a single road linking its two villages. Sandy beaches (rare in Croatia), botanical gardens, medieval churches, and the peaceful pace of island life. Reached by ferry from Dubrovnik's Gruž ferry port — there is no road link, so your driver takes you to the port and a boat does the rest.

Day Trip FAQ

Dubrovnik to Elafiti Islands questions

How long does the Dubrovnik to Elafiti Islands transfer take?

+

The drive is approximately 30 min covering 15 km. Your driver picks you up from your hotel in Dubrovnik and takes you to the Gruž ferry port; the scheduled boat to Koločep, Lopud and Šipan does the rest. The boat ticket is bought at the port and is not included in the fare, and the sailing timetable — not the road — sets the shape of the day.

Can this be a round trip?

+

Yes, most guests book a return trip. Your driver drops you at Gruž port and waits on the mainland while you are on the islands, then drives you back to your hotel when the boat returns. Ask about round-trip pricing.
