Islands in the Sun -- Dubrovnik's Elaphiti Archipelago

Just off the coast of Dubrovnik you'll find the Elaphiti Islands, a collection of paradise isles boasting palm-fringed, pearlescent beaches, clear blue waters, and a quiet, laidback atmosphere that you can only find in the middle of the Adriatic Sea.

Whilst there are eight islands in the group, only three are inhabited, and it is these three that attract the most visitors with their hillside villages and old-world traditions. You can hop over to any of the Elaphiti Islands from Dubrovnik Port, and many of them are visible from the city walls.

There's Kolocep, also known as Kalamota, which is the smallest of the inhabited islands and is situated literally moments from the coast of Dubrovnik. As the nearest island to the mainland, it boasts a pocket of paradise just seconds from the hustle and bustle of the old city centre.

Next, there's Lopud, which is the busiest island of the archipelago with hundreds of visitors heading to its shores every day. Here, you can find some of the best beaches on this part of the coast, with wide, empty stretches of sand and warm, shallow waters.

Get to the Heart of Dubrovnik

Stradun might be the centre of Dubrovnik and the busiest street, but it's the winding alleyways that tail off it where you'll find the real personality of Dubrovnik. Step away from the smooth limestone boulevard and venture into the rabbit-warren of laneways that boast a collection of fascinating handmade craft shops, delicious family-run pizzerias, and cosy bars tucked away from the hordes of tourists.

Really get to know Dubrovnik from a local's perspective with our range of Dubrovnik apartments, from boutique studios hidden away from the crowds to budget flats nestled in the centre of the action.

Delve into Dubrovnik -- How to Get From the Airport to the City Centre

Dubrovnik Airport isn't far from the city centre, though it's worth remembering that the entire Old Town is pedestrian-only, which means if you are staying there you won't be able to get transport the entire way. Luckily, the centralised pedestrian area is quite small, so it's likely you won't have to struggle very far with your luggage.

Getting to the Old Town in the first place is easy, quick, and cheap. There's an airport bus that travels from the airport to Pile Gate at the western entrance of the Old Town. Buses leave every fifteen minutes and offer great views of the city as you come in. Alternatively, there are a number of local bus services that travel from the airport to the Old Town. They stop a lot on the way, so might not be ideal if you're in a hurry. Finally, you can get a taxi which will either drop you at the western or eastern entrance of the Old Town -- again, you won't be able to get taken right to the door if you're staying in the tangle of pedestrianised alleyways.
