Sipan island is the largest of the Elaphiti Islands. The main port is Sudurad which is connected by road to Sipanska Luka, a larger town about 5km away. In between is a verdant valley composed of olive and fig trees, vineyards and citrus groves. Sipan is famous for its wine and for its delightfully laid-back ambiance.
Day trips to Dubrovnik are most popular with frequent car and passenger ferries all year. The island is small enough to be appreciated without a car. Bikes are easy to rent and one-way rentals are possible.
The island is historically interesting. During the 15th century it was a chic summer getaway for the noble Dubrovnik families, many of whom built palaces on the island. On the road between Sudurad and Sipanska luka, you can’t miss the late-Gothic Rector’s Palace and ruins of archbishop’s palaces.
Sipanska luka, meaning the port of Sipan is very much an active fishing village. Fishermen haul in the daily catch each morning, much to the delight of the local cat population!
