The Quicksilver 705 slips away from Dubrovnik’s old port and the city’s stone walls fall aft like a memory. Salt air cuts sharp; the open water invites you to lean into speed as the Elaphiti chain resolves from haze into jagged green—Lopud, Šipan and Koločep—each island offering a different conversation with the Adriatic.

History
The Elaphiti Islands were named by ancient Greeks and later used by Dubrovnik merchants for summer retreats; small-scale olive cultivation and fishing shaped island life.
Conservation
Anchoring over Posidonia meadows damages critical seagrass—use marked anchorages, avoid single-use plastics, and patronize local island businesses to support sustainable tourism.

Bring reef-safe sunscreen

Wear water shoes
Beaches are often pebbled and boat landings can be slippery; protective soles make hopping on and off easier.
Protect against seasickness
If you’re prone to motion sickness, take preventive medication and sit mid-boat where motion is least felt.

Avoid stepping on seagrass meadows and follow the skipper’s guidance when snorkeling or swimming near moored spots.
