Lokrum Island

Lokrum Island
Croatia, Dubrovnik
Lokrum Island is located in close proximity to Dubrovnik, from where there is a regular connection to the island. The area of ​​the island is only 0.694 square kilometers, the length of the coastline is 5058 meters. Despite its small size, there is a small lake on it - Dead. Also on the island are beautiful sandy beaches, which makes it quite a popular destination among tourists.

Lokrum is known for being the resting place of Archduke Maximilian of Habsburg, the future Emperor of Mexico. Since his time, the island has preserved a Benedictine monastery and a botanical garden, where several families of peacocks live.

Another attraction of the island is Fort Napoleon, built by the French in 1806 during their conquest of Dalmatia.

I highly recommend the island to exotic lovers - the island itself is beautiful, palm trees, flowers, conifers, and olive groves grow there, but the peacocks are the highlight of the island. They are everywhere - under your feet, over your head. It is important to take care of small chicks and are absolutely not afraid of tourists. There you can relax, swim, and just lie in the shade ...You can get to the island by boat for 11 euros.
