Globoko (pronounced [ɡlɔˈboːkɔ] or [ɡlɔˈbɔːkɔ]) is a small settlement on the left bank of the Sava River in the Municipality of Radovljica in the Upper Carniola region of Slovenia.
Geography
Globoko is located in a basin at the confluence of Dobruša Creek with the Sava River. Dobruša Creek flows through Globoko from the north, from the Otok Valley (Otoški graben). There are tilled fields on the terraces above the village. [2]

- Valentin Benedičič (1903–1984), beekeeper [4]
