Day Trip to Lokrum Island

Head to Lokrum Island to escape the crowds in Old Town.

Peace out in Lokrum

One of the things that you should take note when in Dubrovnik is the dates when cruise ships are expected to dock at the Old Town so you can escape the crowded town by going on side trips instead.

Lokrum Island

Just a short ferry ride from Dubrovnik port, Lokrum Island is a good side/day-trip from Old Town. The ferries leave every half an hour from the port during peak/summer season. The trip lasts for about 15 minutes and costs 40 Kuna.

Take note of the times of the last 2-3 boats leaving the island to make sure that you get back to the main land as these would be peak times and there is a possibility that you would have to wait to board the next boat when the boat gets full of passengers.
