Lopud Holidays

Explore this beautiful traffic free island

Lopud Holidays


Lopud island is one of the jewels of the Adriatic and one of Croatia's lesser known gems. Lying one hours ferry ride west from Dubrovnik Lopud is a small island and importantly traffic free making it a great family holiday destination.

The island boasts a small harbour lined with a number of shops and restaurants. It is from here that regular boats depart to Dubrovnik.

On the north side of the island is a wonderful golden sand beach, walking from the harbour you'll go over sand dunes on a path before setting your eyes on this wonderful hidden gem.

There are a small number of accommodations on Lopud from hotels to apartments but we'd recommend booking as early as you can as they always sell out quickly.

Where is Lopud?

Lopud is just off the coast lying slightly north from Dubrovnik, it's about a one hour ferry ride away.

When to visit Lopud

The best time is very similar to Dubrovik from spring through to Autumn. July and August can be hot of course whilst the months of May, June and September are warm with fewer tourists. 

What is Lopud like?

Lopud is one of the smaller islands on the Dalmatian coast for holiday makers. Being traffic free gives Lopud a huge advantage to attract families.

The pace of life here is slow, you can wish the days away on the beach, at a harbourside restaurant, walking the island or takin boast rides. This is the place to come if you're looking for a week of rest and relaxation.
