Offering superb levels of luxury, the private beach of Copacabana is studded with white-linen beds and provides special evening sunset cruises for visitors. Meanwhile, Cava and Uvala Bay are fabulous options for families.

Packed with great facilities and on-site restaurants, you can also hire inflatables or water skis. Some parts of the beach are sandy, others shingle or rock. Holidays to Lapad are all about luxury – the main stretch is where you’ll find the bulk of upscale hotels in Dubrovnik. This is also the place for fine-dining restaurants, extravagant beach clubs and sunset cocktail lounges.
