Šipanska Luka, Harbor settlement in Dubrovnik-Neretva County, Croatia.

Šipanska Luka extends along the northern coastline of Šipan Island, featuring traditional stone buildings and a protected bay for maritime activities.

The settlement became part of the Republic of Ragusa in 1426, developing into a maritime center with strong connections to Mediterranean trade routes.

Local fishermen maintain centuries-old fishing practices, focusing on European pilchard and tuna catches while sharing knowledge through generations.

Regular ferry services connect Šipanska Luka to Dubrovnik and other Elaphiti islands, with departures scheduled multiple times throughout the day.
