Lopud

The settlement of Mezzo extends along the western coast of Lopud island, featuring Mediterranean architecture and paths that connect residential areas to the waterfront.

During the 15th century, Mezzo developed into a maritime trading center with the construction of the Franciscan Monastery and numerous merchant vessels operating from its harbor.

The settlement maintains Croatian traditions through regular festivals where local residents perform traditional dances and prepare regional dishes from Dalmatian recipes.

Visitors reach Mezzo via regular ferry services from Dubrovnik, with boats departing multiple times daily and the journey taking approximately 55 minutes each way.

The settlement operates without automobiles, requiring residents and visitors to transport goods using small electric vehicles or traditional hand-pulled carts.
