The best place in Lapad is 'Uvala Lapad' or 'Uvala' meaning 'Bay', a wonderful and green nature surrounded promenade walkway with many café bars featuring dim and personal atmosphere during the evenings. At the end of this walkway is a beach with the same name 'Uvala'. Pass just north of the beach and go westward along a beautiful Lapad coastline walkway with view of the Lapad Bay beaches and The Elaphite Islands, a walkway with many places for undisturbed rest in the wonderful green and the view at the astonishing sunset beyond The Elaphite Islands.

Following this same path you will end up in Babin Kuk, the most western part of Dubrovnik. It is worth to mention that Babin Kuk also has its promenade walkway called 'Little Stradun' surrounded by nature and various sport playing grounds. Of course our little path goes all around peninsula Lapad and brings us back not far from the place we started our walk. The whole walk is about 4,5 km.
