Elaphite Islands – Sunny Islands near Dubrovnik

These precious islands are a natural wonder – but they are also so much more. This Dubrovnik islands tour will provide you with a real experience of island life, Dalmatian style, of course. This group of thirteen islands is located to the north-west of Dubrovnik, and several of them are inhabited. Dubrovnik island hopping will simply blow your mind! This boat tour will show you the three most beautiful islands – Kolocep, Lopud and Sipan. You can go for a swim in a crystal clear sea, wander around in the shade of Mediterranean vegetation, explore interesting small villages or simply take a journey through the local cuisine, it’s up to you! This is a perfect place to get away from busy towns and the hustle and bustle of life since there are no vehicles at all on two of them, and only a few on the third. The highlight of the tour is the largest of the islands – Sipan. Artefacts discovered here show that this island was already inhabited in the time of the Romans. There are many examples of its rich historical heritage, such as ancient villas and old churches on the island – but since this is one of the best Dubrovnik boat tours we will make sure we show you some wonderful, secret places rich with natural beauty.

A perfect day cruising the Ealphite Islands with Regina Maris

What’s better than a sunny Saturday morning?

A sunny Saturday morning you get to spent with your best friend, on a beautiful boat, cruising the wonderful Elaphite islands!

We were so excited to plan this little getaway, and schedule some girl time which can be pretty hard when you live busy lives. The driver picked us up around 9:45 and brought us to Gruž port where we waited for our boat, Regina Maris, and mingled with other excursionists. And then beautiful Regina Maris boat arrived… We were really impressed and we couldn’t wait for our  3 island cruise Dubrovnik !

regina maris dubrovnik

It’s a brand new, classic boat, just made for cruising the beautiful Adriatic.

As we boarded the boat, the friendly crew member offered us the cold beverages right away. The staff was very friendly and helpful. We loved the comfy boat interior and we both agreed it’s ideal for chillexed family getaway.

elaphite islands tours

The Elaphite islands cruise  was absolutely breathtaking, but we couldn’t wait to arrive to our first destination: The island of Koločep (local name: Kalamota).

Island of Koločep (Kalamota)

This picturesque island, is the closest one to Dubrovnik. It’s famous for its vineyards, citruses and olive trees. There are only two settlements on this small, car-free, island; Gornje and Donje Celo. If you want to take a quick swim in the sea now’s the prefect time to do so.

kolocep dubrovnik

Kalamota is made for exploring and the beautiful Mediterranean scenery will certainly impress you. If you decide, to start your day with a cup of coffee, just like we did, make sure you check out Donje Celo. Here, you’ll find plenty of cute cafes, ideal for relaxing, chatting and people watching!

kolocep

Island of Šipan

sipan dubrovnik

If you’re looking for a perfect souvenir from your trip, make sure you check out the stands in Suđurađ port. We went for some olive oil, since it’s the best one you can get in the entire Dubrovnik area. Even the Guinness World Records Book notes that Sipan has the largest number of olive trees in the world compared to the size of the island and the number of inhabitants. If you’re a wine lover, think about purchasing a bottle here. It won’t disappoint.

sipan dubrovnik

Once again, we boarded the boat, and we were on our way to Island of Lopud. But then, something extraordinary happened… One of the crew members started feeding the seagulls, as we sailed away from Sipan, and it was one of the most beautiful experiences we had in a while. Please, take in consideration that we both are local girls and we often think we’ve seen it all. But this experience was out of this world! The seagulls followed our boat and put on quite a show for us. This is certainly one of those moments you get to experience only here,on beautiful Adriatic sea, and definitely one of the highlights of your summer in Croatia.

Just a few minutes after we were already at Island of Lopud.

Island of Lopud

As soon as you hop out from the boat the beauty and uniqueness of Lopud will knock you of your feet.  With 1.20km of beautiful sandy beaches Lopud is really something special. Forget about the noise and air pollution, since there’s no cars allowed on the island. Location of the island is just perfect, but what makes Lopud so charming is the architecture, the local people, the beautiful gardens and the extraordinary views from every single point.

sipan dubrovnik

If you’re looking for a perfect place for souvenir shopping, make sure you visit Lopud. Its charming little stores offer a wide selection of locally made souvenirs, artefacts, beach clothes, silk scarves, jewellery etc.

dubrovnik lopud

We loved the local art gallery where you can purchase the olive wood hand-made bowls…

lopud

There’s so many restaurants and cute cafes to choose from, that we simply couldn’t make up our mind.

lopud cafe

Lopud is made for beach-life, so explore it and find your own perfect spot. Make sure you check out the southeast side of the island, where Sunj beach found its place. Fine sand set in a large shallow bay is just perfect for paddling in. We decided to take a swim at the beach near the port wich was just as perfect.

lopud beach

We loved everything about this beautiful Elaphite Island tour; we got to see three different islands, had some great fun at the beach, did some souvenir shopping, and finally, made some great summer memories.

As soon as we arrived back to Gruž Port, we started planning our next trip… And guess what: It will be the very same tour! Except this time, we’re bringing our other- halves.

Jump Into The Deep Mediterranean Blue

The next stop of our Elaphiti Islands tour is Lopud Island with beautiful sandy beach Šunj where the green and blue-hued clean sea and warm sand shine under the hot Mediterranean sun.

It is a perfect place to have a bath, snorkel, have a cold drink in a local coffee bar or just to walk around.

If all the exploring and bathing wears you out, feel free to doze off on the boat or on the beach. We will also visit the village of Lopud on the other side of the island where you can explore the 15th century Franciscan monastery and the Rector’s Palace.

Our next destination is Šipan Island where, if you wish, we can make a lunch reservation for you in a superb fish restaurant called BOWA, located right on the beach. After lunch, we suggest a visit to Sudurad. It is a small charming fishing village bounteous with historic buildings, such as the renaissance castle of the Stjepović-Skočibuha family, the 16th century Pakljena tower and the church of St. Spirit with a flat roof, the largest of this shape on the Adriatic coast.

To conclude your Elaphiti Islands tour, on your way back you can once again admire the city walls, especially the fort Lawrence, constructed atop a 37m-high cliff.

Koločep Island

Lopud island, šipan island, tour highlights.

The Elaphite archipelago consists of 13 islands, of which only three are inhabited: Koločep, Šipan, and Lopud. Each island is surprisingly different and unique and on this tour, you’ll have free time to explore all of them!

Your Dubrovnik Boat Trip starts with a pick up from your hotel and a short drive to the port of Gruž, where you’ll board a boat for the excursion!

The first stop is Lopud Island - 3 hours

The most popular island in the Elaphite archipelago, due to its amazing beach Šunj - the ONLY SANDY BEACH in Dubrovnik region which is listed by many travel guides as one of the best beaches in Croatia. The water is very shallow, perfect for children and the popular local game picigin. Lopud is the favorite weekend place for the locals to escape the crowds of the Old Town. Lopud Island has one of the oldest botanical gardens in the region.

Fun fact: According to a local legend, if you bathe with your loved one at Šunj, you’ll never separate...

Lopud is car-free, therefore nothing interrupts the tranquility of this peaceful oasis. Lopud Island was a favorite place for the summer residence of the local aristocracy, and it abounds with forts, little churches, and monasteries.

The second stop is Šipan Island - 2 hours

The largest of the Elaphite Islands. Known for the quiet bays, beaches, cypress and fig trees, groves of oranges, and vineyards.

Here you have a chance to taste local gastronomy! At the Captain's house you will be served a six-course lunch and meet his cheerful, welcoming family who will take good care of you. Lunch includes homemade dalmatian ham (prosciutto) and cheese, chicken soup, mussels prepared the Dalmatian way, the main course for which you can choose between fish, pork or chicken, freshly caught grilled fish with mashed potatoes and a salad. All of that is served with a homemade bread and olive oil. For drinks, we offer you red and white wine and soft juices. During the whole tour, you can enjoy unlimited drinks.

This is the only Elaphite Islands Boat Tour that offers lunch at the Captain's house!

The third stop is Koločep Island - 1 hour

On Koločep Island, we are taking you to explore the Blue Cave , a unique natural site! When you swim into the cave the whole place turns blue due to the light and the positioning of the cave itself. A great place to swim, snorkel and take awesome photos. Snorkeling equipment is provided.

Koločep is the smallest of the three settled Elaphite islands and is like a nearby dream. With its picturesque port with colorful fishing boats it is closest to Dubrovnik and one of the favorite excursion spots of locals. Photo opportunities abound. It is a very quiet and peaceful island since it's car-free with no traffic at all, perfect for people who want a quiet, getaway from it all type holiday.

Around 18:15 your Dubrovnik Boat Trip to Elaphite Islands ends and we'll take you back to your hotel.

Elaphiti Islands Boat Trip Itinerary

First stop on your half-day elaphiti islands boat tour: lokrum island.

Lokrum Island and Fisherman Cave…

Lokrum Island, located just a short ferry ride from Dubrovnik, Croatia, is a unique and enchanting destination. It boasts a rich history dating back to the 10th century, lush botanical gardens, a pristine saltwater lake, and an abandoned Benedictine monastery that now serves as a museum. The island’s stunning natural beauty and cultural significance make it a must-visit location for any traveler to Croatia.

Led by our knowledgeable local skipper, you will first explore the Fisherman Cave, situated in the eastern part of Lokrum Island, where you will uncover fascinating secrets and learn about its captivating history. The cave is shallow, but the rocks surrounding it are over 20 meters high. We will go inside by boat to explore this beautiful place. The most exciting part about this cave is that you can see layers of the earth – a marvelous natural sight.

After soaking up the atmosphere in the cave, you can do some cliff jumping at the entrance where the water is deep.

Second Stop: Lopud Island Village and Šunj Beach

Our next stop is the beautiful island of Lopud, and you’re in for a treat! This island is known for having one of the most amazing sandy beaches in the Dubrovnik area, called Šunj. Can you imagine spending a hot summer day lounging on the Adriatic Sea? It’s never less than blissful!

During our half-day tour, you can roam and discover the island at your own pace. We’ll also make a fun visit to the village, where you’ll have the chance to see some incredible sights, like the Dominican and Franciscan monasteries, Đorđić-Mayneri Park, charming small churches, and so much more. Or, if you’d prefer, you can spend even more time in the water, perhaps snorkeling!

It’s entirely up to you how you want to spend your time. Relax on our luxurious speed boat, where you can indulge in a selection of complimentary, refreshing beverages as you soak up the sun. Or step ashore and immerse yourself in the island’s charming atmosphere and beautiful landscapes.

Either way, it’s going to be an unforgettable experience! If interested, you can also learn more about our boats on the  Our Boats  page.

Next Stop: Koločep

The Evergreen Island of Pine Trees…Koločep

Koločep, locally known as Kalamota, is the closest of the Elaphiti Islands to Dubrovnik (0.6 miles away).

This a truly magical place that you just have to visit. Its crystal-clear waters and pristine sandy beaches make it the perfect place to escape the hustle and bustle of everyday life. Plus, the island’s charming, traditional architecture and laid-back atmosphere will transport you back in time, giving you an authentic taste of what life was like on the Adriatic coast in days gone by.

Travel to the Elaphiti Islands from Dubrovnik

“No cars and no rush” is the life motto of the residents, as you will notice from the minute we arrive.

We will visit three caves on the island called the  T hree   S isters  or the   Three Green Caves . Venture beneath the rocks and uncover hidden chambers.

A Convenient Dubrovnik Snorkeling Trip

We will also visit Koločep’s famous  Blue Cave , which can only be accessed by swimming. We offer all guests complimentary snorkeling equipment (cleaned and maintained before and after every tour).

A Relaxed Blue Cave Boat Tour from Dubrovnik

There’s no more convenient way to see Koločep’s  Blue Cave  than on tour with Rewind Dubrovnik! Get countless Instagram-ready snaps of this area of outstanding beauty.

The Rewind Dubrovnik Difference…

Competing with a crowd of tourists to see the stunning Blue Cave is not the Rewind way…

That’s why we offer two options – you can join us for an early tour at 9:00 am and beat the crowds or enjoy a more relaxed experience during the last part of our tour at 13:30.

Once back from touring the islands, we will go for a panoramic drive around the old town and its majestic city walls.

Elaphite islands boat tour info.

The Elaphite Islands or as a Frenchman would say Les Iles Elaphites, consist of a large number of reefs and eight islands just north of Dubrovnik. Only the biggest Iles Elaphites are inhabited, and on this Elaphite Islands Boat Tour, we will visit all three of them. Other smaller Elafiti islands are just a playground for the seagulls, rarely disturbed by the visitors searching for tranquil isolation. Each of these Iles Elaphites is like a special pearl, each similar to the other, but still somehow different.

Kolocep Island

Kalamota, as the locals call it, is an evergreen island full of pine trees entangled with citrus gardens and small olive groves. This Elaphite Island is made of limestone and dolomite rock but at each end, there is a natural, miraculous, sandy beach. There are two settlements both interconnected by meandering paths that lead through the gardens and olive groves, unraveling the remnants of medieval architecture. Apart from sightseeing and enjoying the beaches, Blue cave and Green cave are the places which we will not miss.

Lopud Island

One of the most interesting Iles Elaphites is Lopud – a true summer feel. Full of Mediterranean and subtropical vegetation, pine parks, and citrus gardens. It’s no wonder that in the time of the Dubrovnik Republic, the island was a preferred leisure place for patrician families. This is where they used to build their summer residences as a getaway from the busy Old Town. Sunj beach is one of a kind sandy beach in the Adriatic and is unavoidable on this boat tour. On Lopud, you can also see numerous remains of early-medieval churches, summer manors, and fortifications. Here you can visit a Franciscan and Dominican monastery from 1483 with a cloister and a defense tower with walls. Old Spaniard fortification Sutvrac dating from 1563. is located on the highest point. From there a view of the Elaphite Islands is more than fantastic!

Sipan Island

Sipan is the largest of the Iles Elaphites, and it was inhabited already in the time of the Roman Empire. Today on Sipan, people grow olives and figs, almonds, citrus fruits, and of course, there are large vineyards with the finest grapes. Sipan also has many nice beaches where you can enjoy the sun and swim in the clean blue sea. It is a beautiful island for spending a vacation and having a great time on your special boat tour in Dubrovnik.

Nice Boat and Josko was great! Super friendly and perfect service. He gave us good recommendations on where to go.

Just wanted to say we had a great trip around the islands. Plenty of great places to walk around and also stop for a swim and snorkel. Josko, our driver to the boat, was excellent and very friendly. Ivan our skipper showed us all the great stop points and was also very helpful. Worth the money and time to do.

Highly recommended company!

Fantastic trip. Josko was super helpful from the very 1st contact. He sent pictures of which boats were available on our chosen date, suggested and reserved a restaurant booking, and transferred us to and from the boat. Leader 8 was the perfect size for our group. Antonio was a great skipper and couldn’t have been more helpful. Fantastic day and very professional and well-organized service. Thank you again.

ABSOLUTELY RECOMMEND IT TO ANYONE LOOKING TO HAVE AN AWSOME DAY AT SEA

I really recommend these awesome people. Joseph was our guide for one day and we ended up liking it so much that we came back the next day. He knows everything there is to know about Dubrovnik, he was patient and kind and took us to the best places to go for a swim.

elaphite islands tour from dubrovnik

Stretching northwest Dubrovnik, this breathtaking archipelago of thirteen islands has only three inhabited ones – Koločep, Lopud, and Šipan, blessed with lush woodland and white-red rocks that make the deep blueness of the Adriatic stand out remarkably.

Koločep is a charming, car-free island with rich, diverse vegetation, and sandy beaches. There are two settlements – Donje Čelo and Gornje Čelo . The main attraction of these peaceful islands is the limestone and dolomite rocks as they are hiding excellent cliff jumping spots and spectacular caves, of which the Blue Cave is the most famous one.

Lopud is another car-free island in the group, famous for its long sandy beach Šunj , situated beneath the hills covered with densely, scented pine trees. On Lopud, you can find only one main settlement with restaurants, bars, local shops, and residences, but many sacred, cultural, historical, and natural monuments are situated all over this unique island.

The biggest island in the archipelago is Šipan . Due to the island’s high, uneven terrain there are two seaside fishing villages – Suđurađ and Šipanska Luka . Nature has really blessed this attractive island with lush vegetation, while secluded coves and groves seductively hide many examples of Dalmatian architecture. Šipan is a truly preserved oasis of peace and serenity waiting to be discovered.

This private tour presents you with the opportunities to explore hidden caves, dramatic cliffs, and secluded beaches of the archipelago, to taste exquisite Croatian gastronomy, and to experience vibrant settlements as a great example of the autochthon island culture in Dalmatia. This is a perfect tour for those who tend to relax while swimming, snorkeling, and island hopping! Whether you prefer sunbathing on the sandy beaches, exploring history and nature, or swimming and snorkeling in a crystal clear sea rich with marine life, your knowledgeable skipper will assist with suggestions that will ensure that all of your wishes are met. Our tours around this stunning archipelago usually take 2, 4, 6, or 8 hours, but we are always ready to provide you with details if another timing is required.

Elaphite islands tour is a perfect getaway from the hustle and bustle of the city center.

In case you are a history lover or if you prefer to know even more about the endless possibilities of touring the area, we provide knowledgeable and experienced guides that accompany you on the excursion in order to bring you, as close as possible to the history, value and the way of life on these unique and untouched islands.

Everything you need to know about doing an Elaphiti Islands tour from Dubrovnik

Some of the imagery that springs to mind when thinking about Croatia, has to be crystal clear water, and gorgeous beaches. For this reason when we were planning our trip to Dubrovnik we really wanted to make sure we had enough time to also do an Elaphiti Islands tour. Located northwest of Dubrovnik the Elaphiti or Elafiti islands are an archipelago made up of a number of islands in the Adriatic Sea.

They provide a great escape from the hustle and bustle of Old Town Dubrovnik, and give you a taste of life by the sea. They are also a perfect place to go to relax and enjoy life at a slower pace. Here is everything you need to know about planning your own Elaphiti Islands day trip.

elaphite islands tour from dubrovnik

How to get to the Elaphiti Islands

How long do you need to explore the elaphiti islands, choosing the best elaphiti islands tour, best time to book your elaphiti islands tour, what to expect on your elaphiti islands tour, elaphiti islands tour – visiting koločep, elaphiti islands tour – visiting šipan, elaphiti islands tour – visiting lopud, what to bring when visiting the elaphiti islands, reasons you should plan your elaphiti islands day trip, beautiful buildings in an old world setting, elaphiti islands day trip – is it worth it.

So the first thing to know when planning your Elaphiti Islands day trip is how to get there. The 3 main Islands that you will want to explore are Koločep, Lopud, and Šipan. You can get the ferry which operates 4 times a day, except on Sunday when the service reduces to twice a day. Although depending on which time of year you are travelling this schedule may change so be sure to check their website for up to date timetable details before you set off.

The other alternative is to book an Elaphiti Islands tour though a private operator. This is probably your best option unless you are planning to stay overnight on one of the islands.

The amount of time you need to explore the Elaphiti Islands will of course depend on what it is you want to do on the islands. If you have the time, and you just want a relaxed break away from the rest of the world then you may want to consider staying the night.

If you are short on time, the good news about visiting the Elaphiti Islands is that you can do it all in a day. The islands are relatively small so you probably only need an hour or so on each one, although you may want a bit longer on Lopud.

If you decide to go down the Elaphiti Islands tour route, then you will probably be faced with the dilemma of which tour to choose from. Tours range from private tours, to boats with larger groups of around 60 people or so. It all depends on what you want. Some tours also include extras like speed boat rides and snorkelling. We chose one of the basic tours, which was perfect because you get taken to the Elaphiti islands and get free time on each of them so the boat ride there is only part of your journey.

elaphite islands tour from dubrovnik

Here are some of the best Elaphiti Islands tours that you can book just to give you a taste of the kinds of experiences that are out there.

This tour is very similar to the one we did. You get taken to each of the islands, and have free time to explore yourself. You also get lunch and drinks on the boat. This is another tour that was very similar to the one we booked.

If you want to travel via a more unusual vessel then this Elaphiti Islands tour might be for you.

If you are wondering when the best time to book your Elaphiti Islands tour then it is important to note that these tours do not operate all year round. They usually start in April, and the tours are very much weather dependant. If the weather isn’t great chances are your tour will be cancelled and you will be encouraged to book on the next day instead. Make sure that you book well in advance and be prepared for changes to your itinerary.

Elaphiti Islands day trip tips

Here are some things we think you should know before planning your Elaphiti Islands day trip

  • The trip usually lasts a full day so if you are in a rush this might not be the tour for you
  • Bring sun cream because it does get pretty hot on the islands with limited shade
  • If you are planning to swim make sure you bring your swimming gear and a towel
  • Bring some cash with you, especially for some wine tasting on Šipan Island.

elaphite islands tour from dubrovnik

All in all we spent about 8 hours on our Elaphiti Islands tour. We were picked up from our hotel at about 9.20am and driven to the tours departure point. Not long after we set sail for the islands. The itinerary was roughly as below:

Kolocep Island – 45 minutes to explore

Sipan Island – Just over an hour to explore

1pm – Lunch is provided on the boat

Lopud Island – 3 hours to explore

I should also note that drinks are provided throughout the tour which included Grappa, Croatian wines, and soft drinks. At the end of the tour once you arrive back in Dubrovnik, there are buses waiting to take you back to your hotel.

elaphite islands tour from dubrovnik

As mentioned Koločep is the first island that we visited as part of our Elaphiti Islands tour. Here we had about 45 minutes allocated, which I know doesn’t sound like much time but it is a very small island. There are basic facilities on the island like a cafe, and public toilets. We ended up going on a walk exploring the island before returning to the boat for our next stop.

elaphite islands tour from dubrovnik

Out of the 3 islands we visited on our Elaphiti Islands day trip, Šipan was our favourite. It also happens to be the largest of the islands. We had just over an hour to explore and so we took the opportunity to get lost down some of the back streets. Whilst doing this we spotted a sign directing us to some wine tasting.

Never ones to miss an opportunity to taste some local wine we eventually stumbled into someone’s backyard where people were gathered around sipping red wine. The cool thing is this wine is made in a cellar of a former sailor. For the equivalent of about a Euro you can have a taste or under 10 Euro’s you can buy a bottle. The wine was really nice, and we bought a bottle to take home with us. It was a completely random but also a very memorable experience.

elaphite islands tour from dubrovnik

After a hearty Mediterranean style lunch on the boat we were whisked off to the final island on our Elaphiti Islands day trip, Lopud. We had around 3 hours to spend here, which was really beautiful. We started by exploring the Franciscan Monastery that overlooks the village. We then made our way to the Botanical Gardens for a relaxing walk. The walk was very atmospheric, but also a great reprieve from the scorching sun.

There are a couple of beaches on the island, including one that is sandy compared to the usual rocky beaches you find on the islands. It was a bit cold for us to swim but we did spend a bit of time just relaxing by the water and listening to the waves. There are also a number of restaurants and bars on the island with outdoor seating which are perfect for sipping wine and admiring the views.

elaphite islands tour from dubrovnik

Here are some of the things that we think you should pack when visiting the Elaphiti Islands.

  • Suncream, hat & sunglasses
  • Swimming costume & towel

If you are still on the fence about whether or not you should visit the Elaphiti Islands here are some reasons you should go.

One of our favourite things about visiting the Elaphiti Islands was the fact that there were so many quirky wine shops, selling local wines. But even cooler was the random wine maker who turned his cellar into a winery. The wine was really good I have to add, and it was all part of the Elaphiti Islands experience.

elaphite islands tour from dubrovnik

Food on the Elaphiti Islands is honestly out of this world. Seafood, unsurprisingly is very popular with many restaurants serving fresh and authentic seafood dishes.

Another really cool thing about the Elaphiti Islands is the architecture. You’ve got these gorgeous colourful, crumbling buildings, against a backdrop of crystal clear water. There are also a number of incredible churches and neighbourhoods to explore. Just walk around and enjoy!

I’m a bit of a crazy cat lady, and I’m not ashamed to admit it. Obviously one of my highlights when visiting the Elaphiti Islands was the number of cats living on the island. Just make sure you give them space and let them come to you.

elaphite islands tour from dubrovnik

Honestly you cannot beat the crystal clear waters of the Elaphiti Islands. And whilst the islands can be busy especially during peak tourist season, there are so many hidden spots you can find, where you can sit and enjoy the views.

elaphite islands tour from dubrovnik

So you might be wondering if an Elaphiti Islands day trip is worth it? Yes, it does take away a full day from your time in Dubrovnik, but the islands are incredible. If you are into crystal clear water, and chilled island vibes then you absolutely have to visit. The islands are beautiful and add something special to any holiday in Croatia.

If you are trying to decide if Dubrovnik is worth visiting here is a guide for you.
