The Elafiti Islands are a collection of small islands located northwest of the city of Dubrovnik. These quiet wooded islands are a world removed from the tourist throngs of Dubrovnik and offer a quiet and easily accessible day excursion. You can reach them via a daily ferry service or request a water taxi. Once there you can explore on foot (no cars are allowed) and enjoy walking/hiking to numerous sandy bays and coves lapped by azure waters. You can also rent a bike or kayak. The islands are home to a handful of historic buildings including a few churches, the ruins of a fortress and a Franciscan Monastery which is now used as a luxury vacation residence.
