Lokrum is the green island right across from Dubrovnik’s Old Town. Instead of a busy ferry, see it from your own boat: swim in its quiet bays, then cruise back along the city walls with a drink in hand.

2 hours from €200There are two ways. The public ferry runs from the Old Town harbour if you want to walk around the island. For swimming in Lokrum’s bays and seeing the island and the city walls from the sea, take a private boat: the Old Town Panorama trip passes Lokrum, and I can add a swim stop there.
Lokrum fits into a short trip around the Old Town, or replaces Šunj beach on the Elafiti half day.
2 hoursThe city walls, the fortresses and Lokrum from the sea, at an easy pace. Juice, wine, rakija and beer included.
4 hoursPrefer Lokrum to the sandy beach? Tell me when you book and we swap Šunj for a swim at Lokrum.
2 hoursA welcome glass of wine as the sun sets over the Adriatic, then the Old Town lights from the water.
Lokrum sits just off the Old Town, covered in pine forest and ringed by rocky bays. It is a protected nature reserve, which is why it stays so green right next to the busiest part of Dubrovnik.
From the water you see it at its best: the cliffs and coves on one side, and the full sweep of the city walls on the other.
The rocky bays around Lokrum have clear, deep water that is perfect for a swim from the boat. On a private trip we stop where it is quietest, and you stay in the water as long as you like.
For the most beautiful light, combine Lokrum with the Sunset Getaway. As the sun goes down the walls turn golden, and on the way back you see the Old Town lights come on from the water.
Both are good choices, for different days.

Highlight of our trip to Dubrovnik
“The whole trip felt like a dream, and Željko is an awesome guy. He managed everything smoothly, he was so chill and it was like he wasn't even there. I'd definitely choose My Dream again!”
“Because of him, I was able to make the best marriage proposal I could ever imagine.”
“What a day out! Could not imagine better way to spend a beautiful day.”
Still unsure? Call or message me and I'll answer myself.
Yes. Swim stops in Lokrum’s bays are one of the highlights. Tell me when you book and I plan the route around them.
The Old Town Panorama route passes Lokrum and the city walls. Ask for a swim stop at Lokrum when you book.
The two-hour Old Town Panorama with Lokrum costs €200 per boat for up to 6 guests, with drinks included.
If you want to explore the island on foot, take the public ferry from the Old Town harbour. Our trips focus on swimming and the views from the sea.
