Lopud

This small and peaceful island is located some 7kms to the west of Dubrovnik. Its warm and sunny climate sustains luxuriant Mediterranean and sub-tropical vegetation with cypress, lemon, orange, pine and palm trees. There is a beautiful beach in the Bay of Sunj which faces the open sea. The small fishing village of Lopud has a wide promenade, a botanical garden, a profusion of flowering shrubs and trees, little bars and a restaurant or two. A safe, sandy beach and traffic-free streets are ideal for families with children.
