Lastovo, together with some forty surrounding islands and islets, has been declared a nature park. Like Vis, it was long a closed military zone, so the coast has remained almost untouched. The village of Lastovo faces away from the sea towards the fields and is known for its unusually shaped chimneys.
A nature park ticket is charged for the boat. Zaklopatica on the north coast is a small bay with konobas and berths, protected by an islet at the entrance and open only to bura. Skrivena Luka in the south is almost completely enclosed and is the best shelter on the island. The ferry and the fuel station are in Ubli, and the bay of Velo and Malo Lago near Pasadur is safe in all winds. Korčula town is about twenty miles away across open sea.
For boaters
Konoba berths in Zaklopatica, buoys and berths in Skrivena Luka, Ubli harbour, anchorages in Velo Lago bay near Pasadur.

Anchorages
Uvala Zaklopatica
Sheltered from Jugo, Oštro, Lebić, Pulenat, Maestral
Open to Bura
Park buoys along the south side of the islet and konoba quays with berths for guests; enter only by the eastern entrance. It is sheltered from everything except bura: then you lie under the islet, with lines ashore to the north. The buoy is charged on top of the park ticket.
Skrivena Luka
Sheltered from Bura, Tramontana, Levant, Jugo, Maestral
Open to Lebić
An almost landlocked bay with a narrow entrance, the best shelter on Lastovo: park buoys in the middle, anchoring on mud in 3 to 10 m, or the konoba pontoons. A south-westerly raises high waves at the entrance, and the gusts of bura and jugo are felt inside as well. The last 100 m are very shallow.
