The only inhabited part is a small picturesque town Lopud, situated at the western side of the island. There the guests can walk along a picturesque boulevard with palm trees, small restaurants with seaside terraces, visit the renaissance garden or swim on the lovely sandy beach.

Day 3: Island of Lopud – Island of Kolocep
This tour starts with a morning walk from the town of Lopud to a lovely bay of Sunj. Along this pathway one can experience the beauty of untouched nature. There are no cars on the islands and the only sound that can be heard is birds’ singing. After about 20 minutes we reach romantic bay of Sunj, with a sandy beach and palm trees.
Our kayaking expedition starts here and we paddle to the island of Kolocep. The first stop on this island is a small fishermen village, Donje Celo. Here one can swim, explore the picturesque village or simply relax on a sandy beach.
After a break of about 1 hour the expedition continues and we paddle around the outer side of the island, stopping at the fabulous blue cave. Crystal blue water and a play of sunrays make this place unique in the Mediterranean. After a break of about half an hour we proceed to small village of Gornje Celo, where the guests can have lunch in one of the local restaurants. After lunch we paddle back to Lopud.

Sipan is rich with pine trees and lush Mediterranean vegetation, stone houses and old churches.
