The engine hums, the Adriatic opens, and the mainland blurs into stone cliffs and scattered islets. In four hours a private speedboat unfurls the Elaphiti Islands — Koločep, Lopud and Šunj — letting travelers choose a rhythm of cave swims, beach time and short, local-history stops. The water is startlingly clear and blue; cliffs hold small grottoes and hidden coves that invite a mask and snorkel.
