Where to embark the ferry to Lokrum

Ferry to Lokrum departs frequently (every hour or half an hour - depending on the season) from the Old Town port and docks in the port of Portoc on the northern side of the island. From there you can reach every corner of Lokrum island walking along the paths.

It's easy to reach the old port once you are in the Old Town. Just walk towards the City Bell tower, walk through the gate next to it, then turn right and you'll be in the port. To reach Old Town from other parts of Dubrovnik such as Gruz, Lapad or Babin Kuk, take one of many city buses which all runs to Pile - the western entrance to the Old Town.
