Lapad Peninsula & Bay
Lapad
A relaxed peninsula west of the Old Town, with pebble beaches, a seaside promenade, and pine-shaded paths. Accommodation and restaurants here are quieter and more affordable than in the Old Town.
Lapad is Dubrovnik's main hotel and residential district. Lapad Bay has sandy-pebble beaches, a rarity in the city, which makes it ideal for swimming with children. The pedestrian street is lined with restaurants and ice cream shops. You can follow the seaside promenade around the peninsula to Sunset Beach and Petka Forest Park, where you can watch the sunset over the Adriatic. Bus 6 from the Pile Gate in the Old Town takes about 15 minutes. Lapad is a popular accommodation choice in peak season for those who want to escape the bustle of the Old Town.
