Your Experience

Discover the beauty of the Elaphite Islands

Set sail on a scenic cruise to the stunning Elaphite Islands, known for their lush landscapes, sandy beaches, and laid-back charm. As you cruise along, your guide will introduce you to each island’s unique character and local highlights.

Your first stop is Koločep Island, where you’ll have around 1 hour 15 minutes to soak in the natural beauty. Join a guided hike through peaceful trails or visit a family-owned farm to sample local produce. Next, continue to Suđurađ village on Šipan Island, where you’ll again have 1 hour 15 minutes to explore. Discover the historic Skočibuha family mansion, opt for a wine-tasting experience, or simply unwind in the tranquil surroundings.

The final and longest stop is Lopud Island, where you’ll enjoy 3 hours of free time. You can choose to have lunch at a local restaurant (meat, fish, or vegetarian options available at an additional cost), hike up to Fort Sutvrač for panoramic views, stroll along the scenic Riviera, or take a refreshing swim.

Relax at Sunj Beach & cruise back

A golf cart ride takes you to the other side of Lopud Island to Šunj Beach, one of the few sandy beaches in the region. With shallow waters and a relaxed vibe, it’s perfect for both swimmers and non-swimmers. You’ll also find restaurants tucked into the wooded area above the beach, ideal for a laid-back break.

As your day winds down, enjoy a scenic cruise back with beautiful coastal views. Stay connected and share your experience in real time with the onboard free WiFi.
