General
The island is home to two settlements: Gornje Čelo and Donje Čelo . The settlements are connected by a street, but due to the lack of width, no motor vehicles can travel on it, so the street serves as a purely pedestrian path. The island is regularly served by the shipping company Jadrolinija and is connected to Dubrovnik through this . The population is mainly made up of Croatians , who mainly live from tourism in the high season and from fishing. There is a hotel for married couples on the island, but many locals offer apartments.
