Lukovo Šugarje

Lukovo Šugarje is a small settlement on the Adriatic coast that spreads along a sheltered cove with clear waters. The village sits on the slopes of the Velebit mountains and connects to open sea through a natural strait.

The settlement began in medieval times but was abandoned in the 17th century before being revived later on the Velebit slopes. This revival shaped how the village developed along this protected coastal area.

The Church of St. Luke stands at the center of community life, bringing people together for religious gatherings and celebrations. The building reflects how faith has shaped daily routines and gatherings here over generations.

The nearby town of Karlobag has a Tourist Board that provides visitor information and help. You can reach them by phone or email if you need advice or details about the area.

A stone cistern built in 1840 stands beside the church and shows how early residents stored water. This simple structure reveals the practical ways people solved water challenges in this coastal setting.
