Sipan
We take a short break of 45 minutes in small port -Suđurađ. You can relax and have a coffee in old fisherman’s port, or you can do some quick sightseeing for that time! The Island is the biggest island, and it is in the Guinness book of the records by biggest number of olive trees on one island. It is historically very interesting. During the 15th century it was a chic summer getaway for the very best Dubrovnik’s families, many of whom built villas on the island. There’s late-Gothic Rector’s Palace and ruins of archbishop’s palaces. In Suđurađ, you will find many fisherman’s families who stayed on the island and kept their tradition for all those years. The reason for that is that island is furthest from town so tourism didn’t commercialize it. You will see how people are truly living on the island. Many small and big fishing boats, old stone houses and children selling seashells in the port. Šipan is known to be called “the Mediterranean as it used to be“.
60 minutes here
Lopud Island
Enjoy 3 hours of you free time. This oasis of peace and beauty is attractive and popular because of the numerous sandy beaches, rocky paths through the mysterious old forests, olive groves and vineyards. Lopud is known for its old stone houses, rich historical culture and breathtaking views of the unforgettable sunsets which are sure to stir up the romance in any heart. The MUST on the island is to visit one of the oldest Botanic gardens in Europe, and spend your time on famous beach Šunj, where, according to a local legend, if you bathe with your loved one, you’ll never apart. There are also more then 30 small churches that you can visit on the island. You’ll find many cocktail bars, restaurants, shops, homemade olive oil, vine, and other traditional food and beverages to taste and buy.

Great day on the water
Overall it was a great day. Facilities on board were very good. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Like much was tasty. The three hour stay on the last island was possibly a little too long. If I knew there were a number of restaurants on this island I might have skipped the on board lunch. Having lunch looking out over the harbour would have been a nice way to spend an hour or more. Overall would highly recommend

10/10 experience
It was absolutely wonderful. Natasha was such a helpful person on board. Drinks were unlimited and they genuinely would go around every 10 minutes or so to check if we needed more. For lunch we had a whole bottle of free wine and water. After the 3 hour stop there was also another bottle of cold water waiting for us. Would definitely go again!! 🥰🥰🥰

Why this scores 93
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Full-Day Elaphite Islands Cruise from Dubrovnik with Lunch: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Dubrovnik.
How much does Full-Day Elaphite Islands Cruise from Dubrovnik with Lunch cost?
+
Prices start at $53 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Dubrovnik usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Full-Day Elaphite Islands Cruise from Dubrovnik with Lunch take?
+
Plan for about 8 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Dubrovnik is not rushed.
Is Full-Day Elaphite Islands Cruise from Dubrovnik with Lunch worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 93 out of 100, which we label "90+ Club". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 10,190 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable most popular in Dubrovnik, and how flexible the cancellation terms are. Scoring 90 or above puts it in the Outty 90+ Club, the top tier of everything we rank.
Can I cancel or reschedule Full-Day Elaphite Islands Cruise from Dubrovnik with Lunch?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Full-Day Elaphite Islands Cruise from Dubrovnik with Lunch suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 8-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Full-Day Elaphite Islands Cruise from Dubrovnik with Lunch?
+
Around 3,567 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Dubrovnik can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Dubrovnik and add a light layer if any part of the 8-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Full-Day Elaphite Islands Cruise from Dubrovnik with Lunch start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Dubrovnik within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Dubrovnik?
+
On Outty we rank every Dubrovnik experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Dubrovnik: Game of Thrones Walking Tour, Panorama Zipline Experience in Dubrovnik, Dubrovnik: 7 Caves & Blue Cave Speedboat Tour (4h). The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Dubrovnik?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Dubrovnik?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
