Stay in Babin Kuk Dubrovnik

Dubrovnik's Babin Kuk peninsula at the northern end of the Lapad peninsula has four large hotels and a limited amount of private accommodation. Babin Kuk is less populated than Lapad, on the southern end and contains Dubrovnik's longest beach, the Copacabana, a pebble beach that is well-equipped for a day of sun and sea. There are snacks, drinks, meals and ice cream on offer, plus a wealth of water sports activities. It's also convenient to have showers and changing rooms, umbrellas and beach chairs.

Staying on Babik Kuk is a great choice for families as well as beach fans. Divers will appreciate the Navis Underwater Explorers (099-502 773) based on Copacabana and nightbirds can head to one of Dubrovnik's major discos, Exodus, on Babin Kuk. See more on Dubrovnik nightlife.

It's convenient although not obligatory to have your own wheels if you stay in Babin Kuk (see more on car rentals in Dubrovnik) but the city bus lines do serve the neighbourhood. See a map of all bus routes in Dubrovnik.
