My Balkans travel: Dubrovnik #2 Lokrum Island a.k.a Throne Island or Curse Island

in #travel6 years ago (edited)

If you visit Dubrovnik, one of the "must" to do action is visiting any island.
The second day destination of my Dubrovnik travel was the nearest island Lokrum. In local language it is called as "Otok Lokrum". Also, it has a few alias, too: Thrones island(because of "Game of Thrones" museum and famous throne), Lionheart King Richard Island(Because King Richard visited that island during one of his journey) and the curse island(there is a curse of myth of Benedictine community). Sounds exciting, hah! :)

You can get island from "Old port" that is located behind sea side of the Old town. It takes around 20 minutes and there are half an hour interval trips.
