Why a Lokrum day trip is a great idea when visiting Dubrovnik
Game of Thrones fan? Then you will be happy to find out that it was the island of Lokrum where several scenes from the popular series were filmed. The island of Lokrum was used as a stand-in for the city of Qarth, visited by Daenerys Targaryen in season two. Apart from that, some of the garden scenes were filmed in the botanical gardens on Lokrum, as well as in the Former Benedictine monastery. This is why a Lokrum day trip is ideal for fans of this brilliant series.
How to organize a Lokrum day trip?
You can reach the island by official transportation. The boat to Lokrum departs from the City Port every half hour during the season, docking at the Portoč cove on the island. The journey takes between 10 and 15 minutes. The boat does not operate in case of bad weather and during winter, and additional information can be found here.
