There are several other great beaches within the vicinity, including; the cool waters of Rijeka, Dubrovnik town beach, Blu and Orasac beaches, Gof public beach and Bucarij in Cavtat. Make sure you take the Elaphiti island cruise, join a boat trip, or charter a yacht, and stop off at Sipan, Kolocep, and Lopud as you spend the day sunbathing, swimming, and snorkelling. There are many different ways to familiarise yourself with the area, from Vespa rental and tuk-tuk rides to kayaking the city walls and thrilling speed boat trips.
A day in Dubrovnik’s old town is a must. Enter via Pile Gate, walk the medieval stone walls, admire the views from Minceta Tower and the fort of St John, seek solace in Baroque churches, see the Renaissance Sponza Palace and the Gothic Rector’s Palace, then visit the Maritime, Modern Art, and Natural History Museums. Wander down the paved limestone pedestrianised Stradun, lined with shops and restaurants, pass the Onoforio fountain, and take a guided tour to see where Star Wars and Game of Thrones was filmed. For a bird’s eye view of the city, take the cable car over Dubrovnik, and enjoy some Croatia cuisine in the Panorama restaurant at the top of Mount Srdj.
Take the ferry to Lokrum island, where there is a sandy beach, beautiful gardens, preening peacocks, and super large rabbits roaming free. Get active with a walking or cycling tour, snorkel the blue cave, go scuba diving in Mlini, or sit and fish from a traditional gulet. Enjoy a wine-tasting tour, visit vineyards, sample the delights of Croatian vintages, and then take a bottle home with you. Go further afield for a day trip to Korcula, on the Peljesac peninsula, and visit the medieval city that was the birthplace of Marco Polo.
Make your way to Mostar in Bosnia Herzegovina to see the famous bridge and Kravica waterfall. Cross borders to Montenegro and visit the fortified town of Kotor, with its winding streets and inviting squares, Romanesque churches, and Maritime Museum. As dusk falls, in the summer evenings, the Kinoj Adran shows your favourite films, where you can watch the stars under the stars before enjoying some Croatian cooking in one of the many restaurants which Dubrovnik is famous for.

Dubrovnik's Old Town, a captivating and well-preserved city on the southern coast of Croatia, is a place that effortlessly transports you through time. This historic walled city, with its timeless beauty and rich heritage, offers a unique blend of history and culture that will captivate your heart.
Enclosed within the formidable stone walls, Dubrovnik's Old Town is an architectural masterpiece that has endured for centuries. This medieval gem has witnessed the ebb and flow of history, from its origins as the Republic of Ragusa to its present-day status as a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
Entering the city through the imposing Pile Gate, you step into a world where every cobblestone has a story to tell. The limestone-paved Stradun, the main street, stretches out before you, flanked by elegant baroque buildings that house a variety of shops, cafes, and restaurants.

One of the city's famous historical highlights is the Rector's Palace, a stunning Gothic-Renaissance structure that was the seat of power during the days of the Republic. Today, it houses a museum that offers a window into the city's history. Another architectural gem to check out is the Sponza Palace, a former 16th century customs house and mint that is a testament to the city's prosperity, with its elegant blend of Gothic and Renaissance styles.
For those interested in the city's spiritual and artistic side, the Dominican Monastery is a quiet sanctuary that showcases both. The monastery's cloister is a masterpiece of late Gothic architecture, and the museum boasts a rich collection of art and historical artefacts, offering a deeper understanding of the city's history and culture.
If you’re seeking a bit of outdoor fun, then a trip to Banje Beach is a must for your itinerary! This pebble beach is within walking distance from the Old Town and boasts crystal-clear waters perfect for swimming and sunbathing.
