Too busy to devote an entire week to kayak touring in Europe? Or do you simply crave a long weekend getaway filled with sunshine, outdoor activities, and great food? Take a Short Break! Like our Island Hopping Tour, AKT's Short Break Tour offers the beauty of the Elafiti Archipelago region, geared for travelers who are on a tighter time line.
Upon arrival in Dubrovnik, you'll take a brief ferry ride to your guest house on either Šipan or Lopud Island. Šipan, the largest and wildest of the three inhabited Elafiti islands, was summer home to many noble Dubrovnik families in the 15th and 16th centuries. Lopud, the liveliest and most developed of the islands, is an island without cars or roads and features one of the best beaches in the Dubrovnik region.
