It is one of the sunniest islands in the Adriatic with around 2700 hours of sun per year. During the summer, temperatures go above 25\u00b0C, sometimes above 30\u00b0C, and the sea goes up to 27\u00b0C. During the coldest winter days, temperatures are around 7-8\u00b0C.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>If you plan to visit Lastovo, this guide will give you all the necessary information regarding the island, its beaches, party places, travel information and of course the detailed list of things to do during your stay.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Ferry_to_Lastovo\"><\/span><span style=\"color: #4a79e2;\">Ferry to Lastovo<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Lastovo island is <strong>connected with Split and Dubrovnik<\/strong> (during the summer) on the mainland, but also with other islands such as Korcula and Mljet. <strong>Ubli<\/strong> is a small settlement on the south-west part of the island and at the same time, it is <strong>the only ferry terminal on the island<\/strong> and the only connection to the mainland and other islands. The ferry terminal itself is located in a narrow bay which makes it perfectly protected from the wind and waves, and there\u2019s a nice promenade by the sea nearby.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h3>Getting to and from the ferry terminal in Ubli<\/h3>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>As mentioned, Ubli is a very small town, so no matter where your accommodation is, the ferry terminal is located within walking distance.

Here are some interesting sights you can discover on the island:<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p><strong>Struga Lighthouse<\/strong> &#8211; One of the trademarks of Lastovo is the lighthouse that can be found at the entrance of Skrivena Bay, where Struga Cape lies. This old lighthouse was built in 1839, it is 70 meters tall and stands on a very steep hill. It is open all year round for visits, but you can also stay overnight, the capacity is 14 people in total.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p><strong>Lastovo Castle <\/strong>&#8211; The most important fortification of Lastovo island is the so-called Kastel located on Glavica. It was destroyed in the beginning of the 17th century but it was rebuilt at the beginning of the 19th century. Today, the fortress has a meteorological station and is a popular location from where the most amazing view stretches.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p><strong>The Old Christian Basilica of St. Peter<\/strong> &#8211; The remainings of this 17 meters long and nearly 7 meters wide basilica date back to the 6th century. It was conservated between 1978 and 1981, and sarcophagi and graves cut into the rock were found inside.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p><strong>Church of St. Luke<\/strong> &#8211; Constructed in the 11th century, this church is situated by the old trail that connects the two biggest places on the island &#8211; Lastovo and Ubli. It is the oldest church on Lastovo in general but also the oldest church where ceremonies are still performed.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p><strong>Lucica <\/strong>&#8211; This is one of the last few examples of Baroque fishing villages that can be found in the Dalmatian region. It is a symbol of a long tradition and one of the most important occupations since fishing was the main source of food throughout the centuries. You will find stone fishermen\u2019s houses that were built as protection from the bad weather.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p><strong>Chimneys of Lastovo<\/strong> &#8211; The island has a specific trademark that makes it recognizable. You will find that all stone houses have a chimney of various styles and sizes and it is nearly impossible to find two exactly the same ones. Ask a local to tell you more about this interesting tradition that goes back centuries in time.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Locals of Lastovo are full of stories to tell, especially elderly ones. So, if you get the chance, catch a local who is willing to tell you more about this wonderful island.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-3011\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.ferrycroatia.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/Aerial-view-of-Struge-Lighthoise-taken-in-Lastovo-Croatia.jpg\" alt=\"Lastovo sights\" width=\"1024\" height=\"767\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ferrycroatia.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/Aerial-view-of-Struge-Lighthoise-taken-in-Lastovo-Croatia.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.ferrycroatia.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/Aerial-view-of-Struge-Lighthoise-taken-in-Lastovo-Croatia-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.ferrycroatia.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/Aerial-view-of-Struge-Lighthoise-taken-in-Lastovo-Croatia-768x575.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Top_beaches_on_Lastovo_island\"><\/span><span style=\"color: #4a79e2;\">Top beaches on Lastovo island<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Lastovo island is full of beautiful bays and beaches which vary from sandy to rocky ones. Basically, wherever you go you are able to find a swimming spot, some of them being tourist recognized, and some very peaceful ones. Here are a few of them:<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p><strong>Saplun<\/strong> &#8211; This is probably one of the most attractive sandy beaches, located on Saplun island. The island is in a deep forest providing a lot of shade. As well as the beach, it is accessible by boat only, but it is worth every visit! This beach is a paradise for everyone who wants to simply enjoy the peace since there are no facilities around, therefore prepare yourself by packing your own food and necessities. There are organized boat transfers to Saplun from Lastovo.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Two other islands situated close to Saplun offer the same type of beach, so visit <b>Little and Big <\/b><span style=\"color: #333333;\"><strong>Arzenjak<\/strong> <\/span>with its pebble shores if you prefer remote places with only a few people, if any.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p><strong>Krucica bay<\/strong> &#8211; In this bay, you will find two pebble beaches with shallow waters, a great option for families with small children. There is shade on the beach, but the shore can be uncomfortable, so wearing the appropriate water shoes would be the best. The beach doesn\u2019t have any facilities around, and you can easily reach it on foot or by boat.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p><strong>Zaglav bay<\/strong> &#8211; Very close to Ubli town you will find a pebble beach with thick shade. Besides the pebbled shore, there are rocky spots so wearing the appropriate water shoes would be good. You can reach the beach easily on foot or by bike from Ubli.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p><strong>Mihajla<\/strong> &#8211; This is the closest beach to Lastovo town and it is probably the favorite one among the locals which is why it might get crowded in the season. It is very easy to reach it since it is only 1 kilometer away from the center of town. The beach has a natural shade and some facilities around such as a shower, cafe and a volleyball court nearby.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p><strong>Skrivena Luka<\/strong> &#8211; Translated as Hidden Port, this is an ideal beach for families with children and it is located on the north side of the island. The beach is also known as Portorosso after the restaurant of the same name. Here you will find several small beaches, some with facilities, some without, and one of the beaches is also suitable for nudists (Kujenceva ropa).<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p><strong>Uska bay<\/strong> &#8211; Right next to Skrivena Luka lies one of the most attractive bays on the island, and as the name reveals it (Narrow Bay in English) it is a small beach with a lot of shade. There are no facilities on the beach so bringing your own food would be great. Also, have in mind that the pebbles on the shore can be sharp and uncomfortable, so bringing appropriate water shoes would be a plus.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>The list stops here, but there are many more great places such as those in <b>Zaklopatica bay<\/b>, <b>Pasadur<\/b>, <b>Barje <\/b>with a little islet on the eastern side etc.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-3012\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.ferrycroatia.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/Remote-bay-with-old-stone-houses-and-old-fishing-boat-on-the-island-of-Lastovo-Croatia.jpg\" alt=\"Lastovo beach\" width=\"1024\" height=\"480\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ferrycroatia.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/Remote-bay-with-old-stone-houses-and-old-fishing-boat-on-the-island-of-Lastovo-Croatia.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.ferrycroatia.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/Remote-bay-with-old-stone-houses-and-old-fishing-boat-on-the-island-of-Lastovo-Croatia-300x141.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.ferrycroatia.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/Remote-bay-with-old-stone-houses-and-old-fishing-boat-on-the-island-of-Lastovo-Croatia-768x360.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Camping_on_Lastovo\"><\/span><span style=\"color: #4a79e2;\">Camping on Lastovo<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Spending a vacation in nature is a unique experience, especially if you decide to go on a vacation somewhere on the Mediterranean during the summer months.

There are many roads on the island that connect villages while offering unspoiled nature along the way with light traffic. The best time to go cycling is early spring or autumn. Summers are too hot, so make sure you always bring at least water with you.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Although most of the roads listed above can also be used for cycling, here are some popular cycling routes:<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>From Lastovo town you can get to Zaklopatica, Skrivena Luka, Lucica and Barje via local road (trails ranging from 1-5 km) and to Ubli via state road (9.5 km).<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Other popular routes are:<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<ul>\r\n<li>Ubli &#8211; Pasadur (2.8 km),<\/li>\r\n<li>Prehodiste &#8211; Pasadur (2.3 km),<\/li>\r\n<li>Pasadur &#8211; Jurjeva Luka (1.2 km),<\/li>\r\n<li>Ubli &#8211; Hum (4.5 km)<\/li>\r\n<li>Prgovo &#8211; Duboke (1.2 km).<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-3015\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.ferrycroatia.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/Lanes-of-Lastovo-Island-Croatia.jpg\" alt=\"Lastovo street\" width=\"1024\" height=\"681\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ferrycroatia.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/Lanes-of-Lastovo-Island-Croatia.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.ferrycroatia.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/Lanes-of-Lastovo-Island-Croatia-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.ferrycroatia.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/Lanes-of-Lastovo-Island-Croatia-768x511.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Snorkeling_and_diving_on_Lastovo\"><\/span><span style=\"color: #4a79e2;\">Snorkeling and diving on Lastovo<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>The island of Lastovo has a very rich and interesting underwater life with flora and fauna. There are plenty of coves and bays as well as <strong>Lastovnjaci<\/strong>, a true paradise for divers. Lastovo with its archipelago is proclaimed Nature Park, meaning underwater nature is well-preserved and untouched with crystal clear waters.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Ideal spots for diving can be found in <strong>Zaklopatica, Pasadur<\/strong> and <strong>Skrivena Luka<\/strong> (especially popular is <strong>Struga<\/strong>). Besides that, various cliffs and islets can be found around the island, one of the most attractive spots is <strong>Seka Drasan<\/strong>.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p><strong>Snorkeling <\/strong>doesn\u2019t require that much preparation and physical shape nor the theoretical and practical knowledge important for scuba diving. Snorkeling equipment can be rented at the beach or from different rental agencies in towns, or you can even buy it from the stores or stands in the main towns. There are <strong>2 scuba diving centers on the island<\/strong> where both professionals and novices can explore underwater life, one located in Pasadur, the other one in Zaklopatica.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Festivals_on_Lastovo_island\"><\/span><span style=\"color: #4a79e2;\">Festivals on Lastovo island<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>On Lastovo Island, summer months are never dull! There are various open-air music concerts and festivals, especially during the peak season, from June till September, when the weather is simply perfect for such things.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p><strong>Lastovo &#8211; Music Island<\/strong> is one of the best-known festivals happening every summer, usually at the beginning of August. The festival hosts numerous renowned bands and artists from the region, being more alternative than mainstream, but everyone can find something for themselves since a variety of genres is included, from jazz and swing to blues, rock and pop.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p><strong>Lastovo in the Stars (Lastovo u Zvijezdama)<\/strong> is a new festival that immediately got everyone\u2019s attention. The festival has a daily and nightly program, during the day Zaglav campsite hosts many educational and fun workshops of various types, during the night live concerts and DJs take over. The night ends with the observation of the stars through a telescope.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Besides the music festivals, summers are reserved for <strong>Culture Summer (Kulturno ljeto)<\/strong> on Lastovo when the tourist boards and other groups and individuals organize a number of manifestations, events and performances together.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>If you\u2019re there by the end of the summer, on September 26th, then you can be a part of the celebration of the <strong>Day of Municipality of Lastovo<\/strong><b>.<\/b> On that day, Lastovo celebrates its patrons St. Kozma and Damian, and according to the legend, all grapes should be harvested and put into barrels by that day.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>One of the best known and most widespread traditions in Croatia is probably a <strong>carnival (Poklade),<\/strong> and every part of the country has its own specifics, including Lastovo. If you get the chance to find yourself on Lastovo in February, don\u2019t miss the great masked celebration.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-3014\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.ferrycroatia.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/The-Lastovo-Carnival_-The-pokladari-arrive-at-Dolac-Square-where-the-festivities-reach-their-peak.jpg\" alt=\"Lastovo summer festivals\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ferrycroatia.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/The-Lastovo-Carnival_-The-pokladari-arrive-at-Dolac-Square-where-the-festivities-reach-their-peak.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.ferrycroatia.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/The-Lastovo-Carnival_-The-pokladari-arrive-at-Dolac-Square-where-the-festivities-reach-their-peak-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.ferrycroatia.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/The-Lastovo-Carnival_-The-pokladari-arrive-at-Dolac-Square-where-the-festivities-reach-their-peak-768x512.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Lastovo_nightlife\"><\/span><span style=\"color: #4a79e2;\">Lastovo nightlife<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Lastovo is definitely not the popular party destination such as <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ferrycroatia.com\/en\/island-hvar\/\">Hvar<\/a>, and considering the fact that it has been open for tourists since recently in history, its popularity is still not that high, which is why <strong>Lastovo is more often picked by families with children who want to enjoy the pure nature and sea.<\/strong> Of course, that doesn\u2019t mean that you can\u2019t have memorable nights while staying on the island.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>There are a few bars where you can go out with your friends and sip drinks such as a relaxing bar called <strong>Mamilo<\/strong>, located in town Lastovo, and a dive bar <strong>Poseidon<\/strong>, located on the other side of the island, in port Ubli.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Still, summer definitely offers more than any other period of the year, so there are various concerts, events, as well as festivals, check them in the section \u2018Festivals on Lastovo island\u2019.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Food_supplies\"><\/span><span style=\"color: #4a79e2;\">Food &amp; supplies<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Lastovo is not a big island but you can easily find stores with most of the food and supplies so you don\u2019t have to bring anything from the mainland. The biggest offer is in bigger settlements, of course, so if you need to stock up on food supplies head to <strong>Studenac Market<\/strong> which can be found in Lastovo town and Ubli. The one in Lastovo can be found on Pjevor street and the working hours are every day from 07:00 &#8211; 21:00, and the other one in Ubli has working hours from 07:00 &#8211; 20:00. During the summer season, there is an additional Studenac in Ubli usually with basic nautical equipment.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>You will probably stumble upon other mini-stores but the prices can be slightly higher than in the main ones previously mentioned, also, the offer is limited. Besides that, there are bakeries and pastry shops in bigger places as well as other kinds of small shops.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Lastovo has plenty of <strong>restaurants<\/strong>, too, so you can always eat outside, which we definitely recommend since there are numerous specialties you should try. Regarding fish specialties, definitely try <strong>grilled fish<\/strong> or <strong>scampi<\/strong>, \u2018<strong>black\u2019 risotto<\/strong> with squids, <strong>octopus with potatoes baked under the lid<\/strong> on an open fire (also known as peka)\u2026 If you prefer meat, than don\u2019t miss to try <strong>pasticada with gnocchi<\/strong>, <strong>roasted lamb<\/strong> on the spit, <strong>meat with potatoes baked under the lid<\/strong> (meat version of peka)&#8230;and many more!<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>In general, Mediterranean cuisine is similar to Italian one, so you will find a lot of olive oil and herbs like rosemary and sage, garlic and tomatoes in almost every sauce, a lot of vegetables and fruits, etc.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>If you want to try something <strong>exclusively from Lastovo<\/strong>, consider these specialties: <strong>fish in white sauce<\/strong> (fresh fish in a sauce of onions, garlic, parsley with potatoes), <strong>lobster pasta<\/strong>, <strong>roasted sardines<\/strong> on the spit and <strong>grouper stew<\/strong>.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Of course, great food goes hand in hand with great wine, and you\u2019re probably already familiar with the fact that Croatia has some excellent wines! While on Lastovo, try white wine <strong>Rukatac<\/strong>, pink <strong>Opolo<\/strong> or red wines <strong>Mali plavac<\/strong> and <strong>Merlot<\/strong>.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-2910\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.ferrycroatia.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/Octopus-peka-Croatian-food.jpg\" alt=\"Octopus under the lid\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ferrycroatia.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/Octopus-peka-Croatian-food.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.ferrycroatia.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/Octopus-peka-Croatian-food-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.ferrycroatia.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/Octopus-peka-Croatian-food-768x512.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"ATMs_exchange_offices\"><\/span><span style=\"color: #4a79e2;\">ATMs &amp; exchange offices<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Remember that the official currency in Croatia is <strong>Croatian Kuna (HRK)<\/strong>, so most of the places accept Kuna only.

On the other hand, bringing a bicycle on a catamaran is in most cases forbidden as there is simply no space. In case you are traveling off-season, the boat crew might let you bring it if there are no many passengers.<\/p>\r\n<\/div>\r\n<div id=\"faq-question-1625823753168\" class=\"schema-faq-section\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\"><strong>Can I buy \/ reserve a ticket for a specific departure?<\/strong><\/strong>\r\n<p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">In the case of the catamaran, you can buy a ticket for a specific departure, but for the car ferry, you can buy a ticket online and pick the specific travel date and departure, but that ticket doesn&#8217;t guarantee you boarding at chosen departure time so make sure you arrive at the ferry port on time.<\/p>\r\n<\/div>\r\n<div id=\"faq-question-1625823760494\" class=\"schema-faq-section\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\"><strong>Can I make a day trip to Lastovo from Split or Dubrovnik?<\/strong><\/strong>\r\n<p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">Making a day trip to Lastovo is definitely not a good idea since it is one of the furthest islands from the mainland, so it is not even technically possible to do it from Split or Dubrovnik. If planning to visit this island, you should stay at least 2 days to be able to discover the main sites.<\/p>\r\n<\/div>\r\n<div id=\"faq-question-1625823775542\" class=\"schema-faq-section\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\"><strong>Can I bring my dog on the ferry\/catamaran?<\/strong><\/strong>\r\n<p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">On catamarans, you can NOT bring your dog, but on the car ferries you can, but you are not allowed to take them into the closed areas where passengers are sitting.<\/p>\r\n<\/div>\r\n<div id=\"faq-question-1625823782358\" class=\"schema-faq-section\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\"><strong>How much luggage can I bring?<\/strong><\/strong>\r\n<p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">On ferries up to 100 kg, on catamarans up to 20 kg but as the luggage it not weighed, it is normally not an issue if you bring a bit more.<\/p>\r\n<\/div>\r\n<div id=\"faq-question-1625823788758\" class=\"schema-faq-section\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\"><strong>How long should I stay on Lastovo island?<\/strong><\/strong>\r\n<p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">You can explore all the mentioned sights in 2-3 days, but if you want to properly relax and discover all the authentic places on the island, take a few more days.<\/p>\r\n<\/div>\r\n<div id=\"faq-question-1625823796654\" class=\"schema-faq-section\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\"><strong>When is the best time to visit Lastovo?<\/strong><\/strong>\r\n<p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">The best time is summer because you can spend your days on the beach, relaxing, swimming and sunbathing.
