    Nightlife on Lopud island

    Posted by MarkGrey 1 August 2006

    Lopud is perhaps not the best choice-unless you make it that way yourselves. There are a few bars and restaurants and that's really it. We
    were treated to in-hotel entertainment, folk music, quizzes and some dancing.

    Sunj beach, Lopud island

    Posted by MarkGrey 1 August 2006

    Part naturist on the other side of Lopud, it’s idyllic and has good facilities in a sheltered, shallow bay - safe for swimming and the sea is clean and turquoise. It warms quickly and there's only the occasional jelly fish to vex.

    Lopud island

    Posted by MarkGrey 1 August 2006

    Lopud is reached via a one hour ferry crossing from Dubrovnik. Unusually for Croatia, it has sandy beaches; that was part of the appeal to us. The other was that the island is completely car free. Indeed there is little traffic at all aside from some little tractors and buggies carting people and luggage about. Each morning, locals cluster round the port to unload produce and supplies from the ferrys - everything comes to the island from the mainland and everyone living there seems to know each other!

    Staying on Lopud island

    Posted by MarkGrey 1 August 2006

    There's a small choice of accommodation on the island, but for those like us with young children, the Lafodia Hotel is ideal. It provides a kids club
    where the children's creative side is encouraged and they are taken on little fishing trips. We travelled earlier this year when the weather was rather mixed, the children were kept occupied with activities for about 90 minutes in the morning and afternoon.

    Food is hot and cold Mediterranean buffet style with plenty of salad and fruit and the hotel is all inclusive so you could get house red/white; beer and some spirits all day to 11pm.

    Lopud island is about a one hour ferry journey from Dubrovnik.
