Ubli is a small village on the island of Lastovo with a ferry terminal. It serves as the port of entry to Croatia, and the island’s only gas station is located here. When the ferry is not present, boats moor alongside the dock at a distance of 3–6 meters. The mooring is usually occupied by fishing boats.
The bay where the port is located is enclosedby Prezba Island, to which it is connected by a bridge that separates the other inlet of Mali Lago. Here, be careful of the strong Bora wind, which can channel even into the most sheltered area on the western side. Opposite Ubli, the Bora wind blows mainly from the north. For night landings, the red Guidi light, which is intended to warn of hazards on the right, is obscured by the islets at the entrance.
Ubli is connected to the port of Split by ferry or catamaran. The ferry that stops overnight is very noisy, so it’s not very pleasant to spend the night at the dock. In town, you’ll find the harbor master’s office, customs, a store, and a bar. The gas station for boaters has split shifts outside the summer season, while during the summer season (June through September) it is open all day.
With its hills and valleys covered in orchards, olive groves, and vineyards, and its villages that seem frozen in time, the island of Lastovo(Lagosta) is a natural paradise—56 square kilometers of unspoiled nature and folk traditions. The island features many beaches and coves carved out of the inlets along its rugged and often rocky coastline. There are both sandy and pebble beaches. One of the most beautiful is Saplun, located on one of the uninhabited islets of the Lastovo archipelago.
The Lastovo Nature Park has been a protected area since 2006. The nature reserve includes the island of Lastovo, the surrounding archipelago, and the island of Susac. In total, 44 islands, islets, and rocks are included in the Nature Park.
All the roads on Lastovo are ideal for cycling, given the small number of cars on the island. The road connects Ubli with the town of Lastovo and Porto Rosso, covering a total of 17 km. The residents are engaged in viticulture, olive cultivation, and tourism. You can sample the island’s culinary offerings at the More, Pece, and Pace taverns; local specialties include lobsters and oysters.
