Lastovo features in list of top European islands

The Guardian has published a list of the 10 most beautiful unexplored European islands of untouched nature, and a Dubrovnik island features in the top ten.

In the newspaper’s list of “10 of Europe’s most enchanted off-the-radar islands,” the island of Lastovo features.

“It may take an arduous four-and-a-quarter hour ferry crossing from Split to reach Lastovo, but this chunky Croatian island is so different from its touristy sister, you’ll be glad you made the effort. Spend your time dawdling through pine forests, admiring the island’s Venetian-style houses, then exploring some of its 38 churches or swimming in the transparent waters off Skrivena Luka Bay,” writes The Guardian.

In 2006 the island of Lastovo was declared a nature park.
