Ubli, Lastovo island

Lastovo is an offshore island so the trip from Dubrovnik by a TP Line catamaran lasts 3:30 hours, but its well worth it since it is a real oasis of peace amid the blue waters of Adriatic.

For most part of the twentieth century foreigners were forbidden to go to Lastovo due to its military importance and therefor the island preserved much of its original Mediterranean charm. Discover remnants of military installations, architectural landmarks from its rich history and well renowned wines cultivated on the island.

Lastovo is the second biggest island in Dubrovnik-Neretva county and the fifteenth biggest island in Croatia encompassing the area of a little bit more than 40 km2 and having a population of some 800 people. Lastovo is an offshore island so the trip from Dubrovnik by a TP Line catamaran lasts 3:30 hours, but its well worth it since it is a real oasis of peace amid the blue waters of Adriatic, still largely untouched by the mass tourism. Mostly due to extremely rich underwater fauna the Lastovo islands Nature park was constituted encompassing entire Lastovo and numerous smaller islands.

For most part of the twentieth century foreigners were forbidden to go to Lastovo due to its military importance and therefor the island preserved much of its original Mediterranean charm.

Lastovo is full of numerous pebble beaches surrounded by pine forests. In fact, it is the second most forested island in Croatia, second only to the nearby Mljet. What better place to have a nice, relaxing walk?

Lastovo is small and isolated enough to give you all the peace and quiet you want during your vacation, but still large enough to offer a good choice of restaurants serving local food and wine and a variety of accommodations and services. You will not make a mistake if you decide to visit it this summer so make sure to embark on TP Line catamaran in Dubrovnik every day at 14:30 o’clock from June to October.
