Top 50 things to do and attractions in Konavle

Amazing island is waiting to be discovered. We were very glad that we had the chance to visit this amazing place. With a ferry every 30 minutes you can get there early and spend the day exploring the place. The is a lot of walking to be done if you do want to explore the island but you can reward yourself with a swim either in the Dead Sea or by the rocks. There's a restaurant on the island, a cafe/ bar and another one by the lake.

Visiting Lokrum Island was an absolute highlight of our trip to Dubrovnik. We definitely enjoyed our time on this beautiful, tranquil nature reserve. It’s the perfect, accessible escape from the Old Town crowds. Getting there is quick and straightforward. It’s just a 15-minute ferry ride from the city's Old Port. We found ticket purchasing to be easy, whether you opt to buy online or at the counter right in the port. Once on the island, you immediately feel the difference. It truly is a beautifully silent, isolated place, filled with lush greenery and the most lovely peacocks who roam the grounds freely. For activities, there are great offers to swim in the crystal-clear Adriatic, so be sure to pack your bathing suit. And for Game of Thrones fans, the Iron Throne is here! I highly recommend dedicating at least a half-day to exploring this wonderful, peaceful haven.

A must visit especially for the fans of the Games of Thrones. The throne is here and many people choose to lineup for a photo opt. The ferry services to and from the island are at the old port that’s a 15 minute boat ride. The boat schedule runs every 30 minutes with two boats. The ticket sales can be purchased online or at the ticket booth. It’s 30 euros round trip including admission. You’ll find many areas to swim and enjoy the scenery. The popular swimming spots have lifeguards. There are restaurants and eateries located throughout the island. Worth a visit and less crowds here.

This is a magical place only 10-15 minutes boat ride from Dubrovnik port. It is a protected island and there are plenty of beautiful peacocks all around the place. For GoT lovers this is the city of Qarth. You will find maps all over the island with the important locations that you have to visit, there is a beautiful beach and a lake. The boat to the island costs 30 euros per person but you get a 20% discount if you have the city pass. Totally recommend it, you cannot miss it if you visit Dubrovnik

The Island of Lokrum is a beautiful place to visit with the family. 🌿 The scenery is amazing, and it’s a great spot to swim, relax, and explore. You’ll also enjoy seeing the animals roaming around and the variety of trees and plants across the island. The only thing to keep in mind is that there’s quite a bit of walking involved 😛—so be prepared with comfortable shoes. Overall, it’s a fun, natural, and refreshing experience.

It was fine. The trails up to the observatory are horrible and should not be attempted by anyone unfamiliar to long hikes or rough trails. The descent is no better. The beaches are rocks but the swimming appears good. They clearly want you to stay by the parts they can make money off you by their bar and cabana by the rocks. The ferry is timely and the trip is easy and quick. Overall if you can take you own boat or trip plan to spent €30 to hang out and bring drinks/snacks to hang by the water it is worth it. Otherwise save your money and just go to a beach

We visited Lokrum Island off-season, so it wasn’t crowded at all. The boat ride from Dubrovnik itself was already an amazing experience, and the trip is definitely worth the price. The island is beautiful, lush and green, with a few cafes and restaurants to relax in. There are also plenty of spots to sunbathe and enjoy the sea. A must-visit, especially for Game of Thrones fans! And of course the peacocks😱😍🦚🏰🌊

Rector’s palace is a must see in Dubrovnik old town. You get the chance to see probably the most historical building in the city and learn a lot about the history and the culture of the city. What most people don’t know and they don’t advertise it in the museum is that you can download the free IOS app of the museum and it has an amazing audio guide in Croatian and English. Our experience was so much better due to the audio guide and we have noticed many things that we would otherwise miss. Definitely check it out if you are in the city and make sure you buy the Dubrovnik city pass before hand since the entrance of the palace is included.

I visited Rector’s Palace in Dubrovnik mainly because I’m a big Game of Thrones fan — some scenes were filmed here, which made it extra exciting. The palace itself is incredible, with a beautiful mix of Gothic and Renaissance architecture, elegant arches, grand halls, and intricate details that tell the story of Dubrovnik’s rich history. The museum inside provides insight into the city’s past, displaying artifacts, portraits, and period furniture. Depending on your interest, it can be covered in about an hour or less. It’s best to visit with the Dubrovnik Day Pass, as the entrance is included — that way you save paying extra and can combine it with other sites. Highly recommend it for history buffs, architecture lovers, and Game of Thrones fans alike.

The Rector's Palace is absolutely a must-see destination in Dubrovnik. We thoroughly enjoyed our time here, completely captivated by the building's amazing architecture. The blend of different styles is truly beautiful and offers a deep dive into the history. The entire palace provides a wonderful insight into the city's past governance and noble life. For Game of Thrones fans, you should not miss this location. A major plus for visitors is that entry is included if you have the Dubrovnik Pass, making it fantastic value. As a bonus, the palace frequently hosts temporary exhibitions, and the war photo exhibition we saw was incredibly powerful and moving. Plan to spend at least an hour absorbing the history and beauty here.

Buy the Dubrovnik Pass, it pays for the old city wall walk at 40 Euros, and you get access to many museums and attractions. Rector's Palace is one of them, right in the heart of the old city. We really enjoyed the beautiful courtyard and staircases. There's a few levels and things to see in the Palace, likely won't take more than 30min.

A beautiful historical building, with iconic stairs and courtyards. The rooms are a little underwhelming, nothing particularly interesting in them except maybe some unique chests and a few statues. We were there maybe 30 minutes max, and a lot of that was spent admiring the stairs since we skipped the transport exhibit section after peering in. I do think €15 is steep for what it is. If it wasn’t part of the Dubrovnik pass I’m not sure I would pay to enter.

Fascinating Palace and museum , lots of period furniture and antiquities. Even a room dedicated to Dubrovniks former tram system. I especially liked the jars from the old pharmacy and the wonderful cabinet with all the pictures. Highly recommended, good short film about the history of Dubrovnik and the earthquake in 1667.

This is part of the Dubrovnik Pass so we went in and were pleasantly surprised! The art work, furniture and clocks are all impressive but DO NOT MISS the war pictures exhibit on the ground floor in the back. A reminder of the early 1990s here in Dubrovnik!

The graveyard where the mausoleum is situated is free to visit and offers fine views of the sea & coast. There's a small entrance fee for Mausoleum itself, I think €4, but it's worth having a look inside where there are written guides in several languages telling you about this family burial place and explaining the design and significance of the interior decorations.

You can spot the Racic family mausoleum from a distance as is located on the highest point of Cavtat. The climb is a bit steep if you are coming from the steps but if you are walking in the centre of Cavtat is not so bad. The Racic family mausoleum which is also known as Our Lady of the Angels it was built in 1922 by the Croatian sculptor Ivan Mestrovic in Art Deco style on top of an existing chapel of Saint Roch. The architecture is designed as a fussion of memorial, religious and artistic space. The floor plan is octagonal with prominent chapels in the form of a GreeK Cross. The cemetery is still in use today and any funerals do take place in the mausoleum. The views are amazing as you get to see the whole of Cavtat from above and over to the Adriatic sea so is worth the climb.

The Mausoleum of the Racic family by Meštrović is a peaceful and well-kept burial site with beautiful architecture. There are two ways to reach it one from the harbor with many steps and the other with a smaller path and fewer steps on the opposite side of the hill. The entrance fee is €4,- Once at the top, you're rewarded with stunning views of the bay, making it well worth the climb.

It is a breathtaking place, walking inside the mausoleum, seeing the many details in the craftsmanship in such a small space. Initially I walked up on recommendation from our hotel (Hotel Supetar), and I was not disappointed. The history of the mausoleum, builds upon the craftsmanship. The tragic events inflicted upon the Racic family, and the Trust who ensured it was built, makes this a worthwhile visit. It was worth the €4 entry fee, and I recommend sitting in silence to take in the space, before reading the information sheet, which takes you through the history of the Racic family and the details of the stonemasonry work.

Stunning - don’t miss it if in Cavtat, well worth the climb up the steps. A sad story though - worth reading the information sheets inside, which are well written and in multiple languages. Also good views from outside across to Dubrovnik.

This place is basically frequented by locals and there are few tourists there, especially because it is a cemetery. However, the place is beautiful! It is a local cemetery, located at the top of the hill in urban Cavtat, with a magnificent view of the city's waterfront and promenade.

The monument itself is a mausoleum of a rich family of shipbuilders from Cavtat, while the architectures of it and sculptures are the masterpieces of famous Ivan Mestrovic. It says it was his first commission. There is a quiet cemetery on the spot and a nice view.

This was very impactful on me. The quality of the photography is of a very high calibre. It’s very thought provoking and I learned so much about war and conflict in the past few years globally that I never knew was even occurring. It’s well worth the visit tbh.

War Photo Limited – a punch in the heart you must not skip On our very last day in the Balkans we walked into this small gallery on Antuninska street and were completely silenced. The exhibition is not big, but every single photograph hits you like a wave: burning roofs in this same Old Town in 1991–92, terrified children, proud defenders, destroyed villages, refugees… and then the map on the wall that shows how almost every house inside these beautiful walls was damaged or destroyed during the siege. Thirty years later you stroll the same polished streets full of tourists and gelato, and these images remind you what happened here while the world watched.

An excellent war photojournalism gallery featuring bravery photojournalists covering different important wars. I was glad that I learnt about this gallery in a travel brochure and made it in my first day in Old Town. I highly recommend everyone visiting Old Town the first time to stop by this gallery first before visiting the rest of the attractions. The photos of the wars, especially what Dubrovnik had gone through, definitely set the tone to the rest of my days in town and I thought about those who fought fearlessly for justice and innocents. My respect to the soldiers and the photojournalists! As cliche as it sounds, photo speaks a thousand words. Thanks for the curation!

The photos presented are interesting yet heartbreaking. This place truly manifests its intended purpose. However, calling it a museum is an overstatement; it is more of a gallery. I would recommend visiting if you are interested in photography.

Small museum with war pictures. Take a little time to reflect on the horrors of wars that Croatia, Kosovo, Serbia and Bosnia had to face in these past decades. It wasn’t so pleasant in the sense of a fun time, but it was very informative about the history of the conflicts and it’s an important moment not to forget that Dubrovnik it’s not only beaches and game of thrones. The pictures are sad but beautiful. 10 euros the entrance. It is worth it.

very informative and well organized. i wish the captions were given right under or next to the photos though, because it gets a bit park in some spots of the exhibition room, making it difficult to read from catalog. the last section about wars from many other parts of the world could be better organized chronologically.

Brilliant photographic gallery. Very powerful images very well displayed. As you can imagine thesubject matter not for the faint of heart but, this is a very good and though provoking exhibition. I would recommend a visit

Sponza Palace, situated in the heart of Dubrovnik's Old Town, is a splendid example of the city's rich architectural heritage. This remarkable 16th-century palace beautifully blends Gothic and Renaissance styles, making it a standout attraction for anyone exploring the historic city. The palace's exterior features elegant stone carvings and intricate details that reflect the craftsmanship of its era. The interior courtyard is particularly enchanting, offering a tranquil space adorned with graceful arches and columns. It's easy to imagine the bustling activity that once took place here when the palace served as a customs house and meeting place for merchants. Today, Sponza Palace houses the Dubrovnik State Archives, which contains a valuable collection of historical documents. Visitors are often captivated by the building's well-preserved architecture and the rich history it represents. While the palace itself is a visual delight, the exhibits inside may be more appealing to history buffs and those interested in archival materials. For the casual visitor, the main attraction is often the palace's architectural beauty and the ambiance of its courtyard. Overall, Sponza Palace is a must-visit for those who appreciate historical architecture and want to delve deeper into Dubrovnik's past. Its central location makes it an easy addition to any itinerary exploring the Old Town.

Reviews give an overinflated impression of the building.€5 entry (not in Dubrovnik Pass) Courtyard the only significant part of palace that can be seen but is covered in art displays. Historical photos of old Dubrovnik in some rooms and dedication to fallen soldiers in another. No sense of the architecture and history of the building can be gained. Save your money- don’t bother. Just take a photo of outside.

Apart from the central courtyard (filled with an art gallery), the entrance, and the hall in memory of Dubrovnik's resistance during the war in Yugoslavia, I did not see an indication to visit the palace. Currently, the façade is in restoration so not a great possibility of a beautiful photo in the evening.

A very impressive building in the Old town of Dubrovnik, is built on Gothic- Rennaissance style, and it was one of the most important places in the 17th century Asia was the meeting place of the members of the Academy of the Learned, who used to discuss literature, poems and science. It houses the Dubrovnik Archives and is considered to be amo g the richest in Europe. Now the palace it holds a private exhibition and it has the a section dedicated to the fallen of the war in 1991.

Hard to believe Dubrovnik was a war zone only30 yrs ago. A wonderful tribute to the people who laid down their lives for independence and liberty. I'm sure the Ukraine will have a similar museum some day soon.

Unbelievably cool. Game devs use a model of Sponza to validate lighting models. I didn’t realise it was in Dubrovnik. Amazing to see it in person!

A 16th century building now housing the city archives, containing documents, of which the oldest are over 1000 years old. A masterpiece of architechture and stunningly beautiful. It is built in a mixture of renaissance and gothic architechtural styles with lots of intricate details.

I’m not much of a museum goer or art aficionado; however, this museum and Bukovac’s life and works really moved me. The size/location of the museum, all the painted walls, paintings, furniture etc. allowed one to leisurely enjoy the nice temperature in the home, every cozy/handmade detail and almost feel his spirit living on. Surprisingly good. Worth taking a look.

Very enjoyable visit, and it's included in the Dubrovnik pass. The guy at reception was very engaging and because it was quiet, had the time to tell me about the life of this man who also spent time in Peru & USA. He specialised in portrait paintings, I guess because it was well paid. Many selfportraits and paintings of his family on show. The blue room murals are well worth seeing.

Very friendly and welcoming lady at the reception, it's a lovely Museum with beautiful paintings of an important historical artist, definitely worth visiting

Unexpected little gem in Cavtat. So pleased we stumbled upon it. Very interesting, quirky, different to touristy promenade. Well worth a visit.

What a treasure! A great place to see and hear interesting stories about artist's life. He was a fruitful artist that deserves attention and the museum deserves public funding. The wall paintings are getting restored. The first floor is the exibit of the paintings of mostly Dubrovnik and sorounding areas of his student. Remarkable as well. Its a must see if you are in the area. There is a digital overview if his life and work. Spend some extra time. You'll like it. Everyone was helpful and pleasant. Ask them about the details. Its like reading a novel.

Loved this place. It is like going back in time. As an artist I can really appreciate this work on display. I liked the house, paintings and displays that much, that I returned for a second time in the same week. Thank you for opening this house up for everyone to see.

I am so impressed with this little museum. The house by itself self is marvelous and it’s in the city center so it was really easy to find. House shows it’s truly colors by remaining the same through time and how much of an artist Vlaho Bukovac truly was. Definitely something you should visit in Cavtat regardless of your age. Great deal if you are student you get discount I payed mine only 3€ which is a bargain. Definitely comming again!!!

It sounds like the Sokol Fortress offers a unique historical experience with well-maintained facilities and stunning views. However, my main concern is the entrance fee of €10, which I feel is too high for the size of the site, especially in comparison to larger European fortresses with lower entry costs. While I understand the importance of maintaining such historical landmarks and covering operational costs, I believe that a lower fee, such as €5, would be more appropriate. Despite this, for those willing to pay the fee, the fortress could still be a worthwhile visit due to its historical significance and picturesque surroundings.

A really interesting fortress. You can spend a couple of hours here. Good information. Beautiful views. Not suitable for people who struggle to get around.

A nice piece of local history. You can fully tour this lookout fortress and appreciate living is such a place. Have story boards describing the history, use, and living in this place.

10 euros to get in but that is OK (contribution to local economy etc). Not massive but some nice little exhibits and splendid views across the valley. All displays have English descriptions so that was cool. No restaurant but there are toilets and little shop...give it a go and get some local history into those veins 😂

A short drive from main road well sign posted,good parking ,10€pp,steep steps every where but we'll doable, vistas far as you care to see,gift shop toilets

Well quite a surprise. The inside was very informative but unsuitable if you have any walking issues. It’s free to wander around the outside. €10 adults €5 children.

Great castle/ fort renovation. 10 euros entry helps keep the place in tip top condition. The displays and information boards are really good , the views from the top great. Little shop selling t shirts etc. Recommend a visit.

Truly THE most remarkable scenery and place to swim close to Dubrovnik. By the shore, there’s really not that much space to sunbath though. We went there in the afternoon and got easily a parking spot, but still down by the beach. It was very difficult to find a spot to lay down our stuff for swimming. Down by the water, there isn’t any kind of service available, but up by the parking there’s a small kiosk and a possibility to get a shower for 1€/1min. Remember to bring a lot of water with you, because you will need it when climbing back up 😅

One of the best hidden beaches I saw in my life so far... It's definitely something you shouldn't miss while being somewhere nearby. In my case I wasn't able to go there at the "beach area" that you can see at most photos because of high tide, so be prepared that you might have to sit on rocky pathway instead - you can compare how it looked like when I was there with other photos to see what I mean by that.

Pasjaca Beach near Dubrovnik is a stunning, small beach below steep cliffs. It features a unique mix of soft sand and pebbles, with crystal-clear turquoise waters. The beach is accessed by a steep staircase, offering rewarding views but requiring good footwear and some effort. Pasjaca is remote and peaceful, without facilities, making it ideal for nature lovers.

Beautiful beach with sand and rocks. The water is so clear and clean! In order to get there you need to walk down a steep way with stairs and also partly rocks. It's possible to do that with small kids, but you need to be very careful. Do not forget to bring enough water and some snacks as you cannot buy anything there.

Free parking, there is a small bar with drinks right next to the parking, 1€ for 1 minute shower. The way to the beach can be bit tricky because there are a lot of stairs but once you make it to the beach you are gonna forget all about the stairs. The water is crystal clear. There isn’t much space because it’s mostly surrounded by cliffs and big rocks, so come earlier to secure a spot. If you around this area this is a MUST.

This is the most beautiful beach I have ever seen in Croatia! Especially in the morning before 9:00, there are few people on the beach which makes it more charming!

Nice to visite once but too hard to go upstairs with children, fantastick vie on the way and on beach, small place but breathtaking view of rock over you.

You can buy tickets at the entrance. We bought only cable car tickets, but there are also Dubrovnik card tickets available. Sunset is a peak hour. You can walk down with nice view to the city. If you walk aside a little bit (sunset direction) there will be less crowded spots to enjoy the sunset.

Beautiful scenery. Worth every penny. We went on a sunny day. The day we wanted to go the cable cars were not running due to high winds and rain.. so we drove up the narrow road that leads up to that point. I would not fo that. It's a 2 way narrow road. If u can gallows either taxis or someone it's fine otherwise pulling over is hard on to gravel.

Gorgeous views over Dubrovnik. Sunset was amazing from the top. Walk a little towards the left (cable car behind you) to find some beautiful nature and even better views. We also bumped into a herd of goats. Queue down after sunset was almost 1h, right before no queue whatsoever (neither up or down).

The only negative for this cable car ride is the cost of round trip for 30 EUR. You can get a flight ticket from London dubrovnik for the exact same price, and the views will make you feel you redeem the cost of it but I remember paying much lesser fee for longer cable car rides. The views are amazing , there is only one half decent restaurant on the top to have a beer and enjoy the views, and if you are going around sunset time, the uphill rides become very crowded and long queues so plan your trip accordingly

Recommend taking the cable car... great views and access to a swish restaurant/bar at the top. 30 euros for a return trip but well worth it. Smooth journey. Takes about 5 minutes. Didn't eat at the restaurant but had lovely, reasonably priced, drinks whilst enjoying the fabulous views.

It was okay overall. You do have great views of the old town. I wish I had gone up during sunset. I recommend only going up iif the weather is good otherwise the view wouldn't be worth going up. I didn't eat in the restaurant but would recommend getting a drink to soak up her views. If you have time, I suggest getting a one way ticket and then hiking back down Mount which takes around 30-40 minutes if you’re in good physical condition.

The Dubrovnik Cable Car is one of the best experiences to do in the city! The ride up is smooth and the views over the Old Town, the Adriatic Sea, and the surrounding islands are absolutely breathtaking. The time spent at the top was amazing — whether enjoying the scenery, taking photos, or just relaxing. A must-do when visiting Dubrovnik!

A Piece of History Standing Proud in Dubrovnik Right in the heart of Dubrovnik’s Old Town, just in front of the beautiful Church of St. Blaise, stands Orlando’s Column – and while it may look like just an old statue to some, it’s actually packed with history and meaning. This medieval stone figure has been standing guard since 1418, symbolizing freedom and independence for the people of Dubrovnik. It’s not just a monument – it was once the official standard for measuring cloth, and today it’s still the spot where the city’s flag proudly flies during the Dubrovnik Summer Festival. Take a moment here to soak in the atmosphere: the square around it is lively, often filled with music, tourists, and street performers. It’s one of those places where the past and present blend seamlessly. You don’t need a tour guide to feel its importance – just stand there, look up at Orlando’s brave expression, and you’ll sense it. A must-see for anyone who wants to connect with the soul of Dubrovnik.

Very cool place with lots of interesting architecture.

So this statue was commissioned a long time ago but is currently undergoing restoration at the moment. It was cracking and they thought that it would be a good idea to pump it with a material to stop it but it actually expanded and made it worse so now it’s undergoing restoration. Hopefully they get it fixed up soon. It is on the Main Street in Old town and it serves as a meeting point for tour groups

It was on restauration and we couldnt see it 😔

It was under renovation unfortunately when we vistied

I'm sure historically it is ver important, but it's currently surrounded by maintenance hoarding and cannot be seen properly. Some information boards beside the column would be very helpful

under reconstruction due to the earthquake

We just visited the Museum of Modern Art as it was included in our 1-day Dubrovnik pass, and it was a pleasant surprise. The museum has three floors showcasing a wide range of art — not just modern pieces, but also some more traditional paintings. There’s a lot of interesting context about the history of the museum itself, which adds to the experience. The building is impressive, located near Banje Beach, and it was great to have air conditioning, especially compared to some other museums in Dubrovnik. Don’t miss the sculpture garden upstairs — it’s a nice little hidden gem. It’s a small museum, but the exhibits, including some moving works of art, make it well worth a visit.

We wanted to escape the crowds in the old town, and since this museum was also included in the Dubrovnik Pass, we decided to give it a shot! It was definitely worth it, and we enjoyed our visit there. The museum is just a short walk away from the old town, with a stunning sea view on the way. The exhibition was perfectly curated with a great mix of sculptures and paintings of different artists (some of them even outside on the terrace). It was a very nice afternoon away from the loud part of the town, and a very lovely lady at the entrance of the museum!

I visited this as part of the Dubrovnik pass so it's worth doing as part of a combined ticket. However I was slightly disappointed by the size of the gallery spread across three small floors. I've been to many MOMADs around the world so I guess I was expecting a bigger display. The other thing was the rather poor experience with the poe-faced unengaging staff member who I saw at 9.00am. How different to the friendly lady who greeted me at the Archeological museum. Please, a smile goes a long way and costs nothing, it's important when you are in a front line role engaging with the public. Do visit the outside terraces which provide good views of the old town. On the ground floor, the shop sells things like "art prints" €15, mugs, art books etc.

I went to the Dubrovnik Museum of Modern Art about an hour and a half before closing, but only the 3rd floor was open. If I’d known they closed the other floors early, I wouldn’t have gone. The 3rd floor was small, so I finished it quickly — a bit disappointing. The front view of the building and the sunset view from the upper floor outside are truly beautiful.

Small but intriguing museum, in addition to the art currently on display there is a lot of "history of the museum itself" displays here. Don't forget to check out the sculpture garden upstairs as well.

Went to a fabulous temporary exhibition but it's worth going just for building itself. Would really recommend a visit. On the outskirts of the old quarter so lovely to escape the hustle and bustle.

Extremely disappointed. The permanent collection that is boasted on their website was simply not visible because of the temporary exhibition. Poor communication from the website and the staff at the entrance. The museum itself is a magnificent building with a spectacular view of the city

I recommend to get a one day Dubrovnik Pass for €40 because the city walls is a must. If you only go for the wall ticket, it seems like €35, why not get a day pass, and you can pop into Maritime Museum during the wall walk. I don’t think buying three days or seven days ticket is a good idea, because all the attractions only have ONE time access. For example, you can go onto the city walls for one day, you can not go onto it on day 2 or day 3 if you have three days pass. Walls Walk needs a degree of fitness, it concludes about 4-5 kilometres walk, 400-500 steps up and down. Besides, it’s the heat. It could be up 28 degrees even in the end of August. It is feeling like burning in the sun on the walls. Please remember to keep hydrated and cool. There are a couple of cafes and some small stores to get some cold drinks and rest on the walls. Also I recommend to do the Walls walk in the beginning of the day, like go up at 8 in the morning and come down at 10 when it’s getting hot, and also getting very very very busy with the groups, guided tours and tourists. Some areas are likely the bottle necks because it’s narrow. Of course, later in the afternoon is also a good time to go, no groups and cooler. Hats, sunglasses and sun cream are the must with your water bottle.

The City Walls of Dubrovnik are an absolute must-see. Walking the circuit is an unforgettable experience. You are truly walking through history while gaining the most amazing views of the Old City and the shimmering Adriatic. The entire circuit takes around two hours to complete, and you'll want to take your time for photos and to soak it all in. Essential Tips: Go early. Getting there early is highly recommended to avoid the mid-day heat and the worst of the crowds. Wear sensible shoes. The path is uneven and very steep in places, so comfortable footwear is a recommended. Our one complaint is that the entrance fee is quite pricey. To offset the cost, we recommend buying the Dubrovnik Pass for €40 per person. It covers the walls and several museums (like the Rector's Palace), which makes it a much better deal overall. Despite the high ticket price, the historical weight and spectacular panorama make this tour completely worthwhile.

At €40 it’s definitely not cheap. We bought our tickets on-site around noon and were pleasantly surprised that there was no line at all. Walking the old city walls gives you stunning views and plenty of great photo spots. There are lots of steps, but also plenty of chances to pause, catch your breath, and take it all in. It can get hot and there isn’t much shade, so bringing water is a must.

The views are wonderful and you get to see the old city from every angle. It’s a rather long loop, if done slowly it can take about 2 hours. We went in October so the weather was pleasant and not hot. There are two bars/shops along the way to stop at if you need too. There also seemed to be two other exists Incase you wanted to leave early. Definitely closed shoes as the path is a bit rugged. There’s A LOT of steps so be prepared to climb up and down. It is outrageous to pay 40 euros for something like this though, it’s beautiful but not worth 40 euros. Definitely get the pass to try save up some money.

Honestly just saw them from outside - I can't imagine paying 40€ to enter into some walls that you see all the time while walking around the Old Town. You can get Dubrovnik Day Pass for 35€, but if you use it mainly for the walls - it's still crazy expensive. They're in very good condition tho and makes the city unique. Is it worth it to go inside? Maybe, but for sure not for its price which is also the reason I had to remove one star from the rating. In this case I'm going to include some photos from outside and view at them from the top in the dark :)

The Walls of Dubrovnik are absolutely stunning and a must-do when visiting the city. Walking along the walls gives you some of the most breathtaking views of the Old Town, the Adriatic, and the sea of red rooftops — it’s truly a special experience and worth setting aside time for. It takes about 1.5 to 2 hours to walk the full loop, depending on your pace and how often you stop for photos. Early mornings or late evenings are the best times to go if you want a more peaceful experience and fewer crowds — perfect for taking good pictures. The 1-day pass is €40, which also covers some other sites, but I do wish there was a cheaper ticket option just for the walls. Many visitors come mainly for this attraction, and paying the full price only for the walls feels a little steep. Tickets can be bought online in advance or at tourist counters in town, which makes it convenient. Overall, an unforgettable walk through history and beauty.

The Walls of Dubrovnik are an absolute must-see if you come to Dubrovnik. We visited in August around 11 AM, and it was already very hot, so I would definitely recommend going either early in the morning or later in the afternoon. The last admission is at 7 PM, but it’s best to go at least two hours before closing so you have enough time to walk the entire route, take photos, and enjoy the views without rushing. There are a couple of places along the way such as small bars and ice cream stands where you can rest in the shade, which is very helpful if you visit during the hottest part of the day. Still, I highly recommend bringing plenty of water with you because the prices for drinks and snacks on the walls are quite high. Another important tip is to buy the Dubrovnik City Pass. It costs €40 and includes entry to many attractions around the city. Since the Walls of Dubrovnik alone also cost €40, the pass gives you much better value for your money. Walking the walls is truly an unforgettable experience. The views over the Old Town, the terracotta rooftops, and the Adriatic Sea are absolutely stunning, and you really get a sense of the city’s history. It’s one of those experiences that defines a trip to Dubrovnik, and I would recommend it to everyone visiting the city.

Banje Beach and Bar is a must-visit in Dubrovnik! Located right on the water, it offers fantastic seating areas for lounging and tables for delicious meals. Seriously, grab some ice cream and fruit – highly recommend! Yes, it can get a bit crowded with tourists during high season, but that's totally expected. Despite the crowds, the stunning location and offerings make it absolutely worth the visit.

Small pebble beach just outside of the old fort. Crystal clear water. Great location with excellent views if you want to spend time on the beach.

Banje Beach – Iconic view, super convenient, and lovely in October. Literally a 2-minute walk down the stairs from our Airbnb (no car needed!), Banje is the classic Dubrovnik postcard beach: white pebbles, crystal-clear turquoise water, and that unbeatable front-row view of the Old Town walls and Lokrum island. If you’re staying near Ploče Gate or anywhere in the Old Town area, this is hands-down the most convenient and beautiful beach to pop down to.

Great beach! A bit of people but definitely not too crowded. Great views and close to a restaurant.

Lovely beach, went for several swims, but has mainly pebbles not much sand , I did not see any lifeguards , not sure if they were there . Has a restaurant and bar and you can hire umbrellas and loungers.

Clean beach of sand and polished stones. Water was pretty cold even for the middle of July. Get there early to get a cabana oif that is what you are wanting. Just two of us visited around 12-13 and the place was pretty packed with only a few loungers and umbrellas available total was €60 for our spot up on the west upper seating deck. If you go around 16-17 the rock face on the west end of the beach begins to give shade but not a lot. Food and beer were decently priced. There is an extensive cocktail list Two 1.0l biers and a pizza came out to €43.

Super crowded at lunchtime on a Tuesday. Nowhere to put down our towels and bags. Great view of the city & the water was terrific. Next time we’d probably try Bellevue Beach or someplace less centrally located / crowded.

Refused to honor a prescription for ear spray (note, not morphene or opiods) as it was online. Remained in agony till the next day when I found an alternative, reasonable, pharmacist. If it was for a major medication, I would understand, but otherwise petty.

Absolutely shocking and abysmal health care experience. I’ve never seen a medical professional treat a sick person so poorly. My mate needed antibiotics and she got an online prescription from a doctor in Germany via telehealth and the pharmacists would not honor it. They said because it wasn’t printed out it wasn’t sufficient. The German doctor offered to call or email the pharmacists and they refused to give any contact details because they said it wouldn’t matter. The pharmacists were so wildly rude, dismissive, and unwilling to offer help with an alternative we were so shook.

Go there if you don’t want to get help because they will not help you as a tourist (even from EU). They refused to give me my medication even though i had a prescription from my doctor. They change rules depending on the location of the pharmacy but for now none of them helped me. I don’t understand people working in the medical field with no desire to help in any way. Thank you for letting me leave unmedicated and suffering.

The pharmacist here was SO helpful and patient. Excellent English and made some great recommendations to help me get over a cold.

Worst experience with a healthcare professional, not helpful or willing to help in any way. I was sick and they refused my prescription based on nothing but their policy even when they knew European policy allows it. 0/10

We went for the famous rose water and rose cream. There was a line because they were only letting two in at a time. The staff was unhelpful and unfriendly. Purchased our products and left. There were so many mysterious things in there I would have loved to know more about. Disappointed.

The only pharmacy I could find open on Sundays!

Went to Snježnica im April last year, had really nice and long hike up there without any stops. Stopped on the way back in a nice valley to hide from the sun and eat some snacks we brought with us. Had amazing time with friends. :)

Absolutely stunning view and several climbing spots arround...recommendation: Must see!!! Must climb!!!

(Translated by Google) With a blonde on the lookout. Quite fine, except for the strong wind (Original) S blondýnkou na vyhlídce. Vcelku fajn, když pominu ten silný vitr

(Translated by Google) The easiest way to get to the top of Snježnica is to follow the built path from Kuna Konaovska. It takes 2 hours to climb to the top on the trail without rest. The built road is easy to follow, the path is easy and leads all the way to the top. You should not take marked shortcuts because they are inconvenient and overgrown with bushes, making them difficult to pass. In other words, they do not shorten, but only make the beautiful path to the top more difficult. The problem is when you come to Kuna Konaovska on the local paved road because there is nowhere to park, the locals have fenced off their yards, and the road is dead-end and leads nowhere except to the church. It's better to get started right before the entrance to Kuna Konaovska and come early in the morning before everyone else while there is still room to leave the car. A bus or a larger vehicle cannot get up there because the road is narrow and turning is a problem. There is also a path from Mihanić that goes through Kuna Konaovska and further along the built path to the top, but it's almost an hour more ascent. You should definitely not go to the top in the summer, but only in the colder, winter months (from 11 to 2 months) because there is no shade. In the winter months, 26.12. a trip to Snježnica is also held. (Original) Do vrha Snjiežnice s najlakše dolazi tako da se prati građena staza od Kune Konaovske. Po stazi bez odmora treba 2h uspona do vrha. Građeni put je lako pratiti, staza je lagana i vodi skroz do vrha. Ne treba skretati na označene prečice jer su nezgodne i obrastaju u grmlje pa su i teško prohodne. Drugim rječima ne krate već samo otežavaju prekrasni put do vrha. Problem je kad se lokalnom asfaltiranom cestom dođe u Kunu Konaovsku jer se nema gdje parkirati, lokalci su svoja dvorišta ogradili,a cesta je slijepa i ne vodi nigdje osim do crkvice. Bolje se sparkirati odmah prije ulaza u Kunu Konaovsku i doći rano ujutro prije svih dok još ima mjesta za ostaviti auto. Do gore ne može doći autobus ili veće vozilo jer je cesta uska i problem je okretanje. Postoji i staza iz Mihanića koja prolazi kroz Kunu Konaovsku i dalje po građenoj stazi do vrha,ali to je skoro sat više uspona. Na vrh nikako ne treba ići po ljeti već isključivo u hladnijim, zimskim mjesecima (od 11 do 2 mjeseca) jer nema hlada. U zimskim mjesecima 26.12. se održava i pohod na Sniježnicu.

(Translated by Google) 😋😋😋 perfect for spending a weekend in nature. (Original) 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰 savrseno za iskoristit vikend u prirodi .

(Translated by Google) One of the most beautiful hiking routes because you climb the old Austro-Hungarian road that winds and offers a slow ascent. We needed something a little stronger than 2 hours up. (Original) Jedna od najljepših planinarskih ruta jer se svo vrijeme penjete starom austrougarskom cestom koja vijuga i pruža polagan uspon. Nama je trebalo nešto malo jače od 2 sata do gore.

(Translated by Google) Unforgettable climb, beautiful view, clean air🙂 (Original) Nezaboravan uspon,predivan pogled,čist zrak🙂

The 'must do' thing when you are in Dubrovnik. On a good day you can see for miles from the top of the walls and it is probably the best place to view the old city buildings from. There are really nice views of Fort Lovrijenac from the walls and you can spot lots of Game of Thrones filming locations from them. Highly recommended and don't forget that the price includes a visit to Lovrijenac as well.

Breathtaking views every corner. A lot of stairs but it’s totally worth it. We didn’t purchase the one day pass to go inside the city wall, we just purchased the city wall pass and it was €10. Highly recommended place.

Amazing city walls, absolutely beautiful scenery from everywhere you walk. The walls are in amazing condition and are so clean and well looked after. Lots of walking and lots and lots of steps, but worth it for the views.

Beautiful scenery - it shows you the true glory of Dubrovnik. We went during a rainy day and even then it was still gorgeous. Lots of little cafes along the way with toilets (which we used to hide out in during the heavy rain!)

The walls are a must do it you are visiting Dubrovnik. It takes about 1.5-2.5 hours to complete as per your place. The views are just fantastic. Wear comfortable shoes. There are a few places to grab something to eat and drink. The wall ticket also gives access to Fort Lorijenac for a duration of 3 days so don't throw it away. The ticket costs 250 HRK. Came to know later that the Dubrovnik card costs 250 HRK and it covers the wall and a bunch of other places so please do check that out first. Best to do first thing in the morning to avoid crowds. Sunset is also a good time for great views

The walls of Dubrovnik are iconic, no doubt, but are they worth 35 Euro per person or almost $40? I'm not sure about that. As glamorous as it sounds, walking the walls is not that pleasant. There is no shade up there whatsoever, and the views, though initially stunning, quickly become repetitious, and in concert with the heat, they turn to old news as you start searching for shade, water and eventually the exit. I, for one, did not finish the circuit and bowed out before the heat stroke had the chance to do me in.

Lovely scenery from walls. Costs 35 Euro per person. We have been there with one 6yrs old and one 2.5yrs old, also our foldable stroller was with us. It was not too easy with stroller because you need to carry a lot. If you have foldable and light weight stroller, you can take it with you. The easiest way to start is from Maritime Museum, less steps and easy to climb up. Rest of the entrances have more and steep steps. It is one way walk, and you do not have to take round tour. We left the walls from Pile gate.

An incredible experience! Would recommend everyone to do it. There are roughly 1000 steps and the distance is approximately 2 kilometres but don't let that fool you, it is a serious workout. They advised that it should take an hour but it took us double that doing it with two small children. In the end the kids were exhausted and we were not able to visit the fort (the City walls entrance ticket allows you access to the nearby Fort Lovrijenac). Would advise to start early in the day if you're visiting in the summer as it gets quite hot post 11am.

Great view of the whole city. 35 Euros is a fair amount, but if you're interested in doing something else too (like visiting the fortress outside the walls which is 15 euros on its own) then it makes the price much more justified. There are breaks for food and drinks along the 2.1k walk. Lots of steep stairs, be a bit careful if you don't like heights. Amazing though, definitely recommend as an activity.

This is a main street in the old town and is busy with shops and restaurants. It is especially lovely in the evenings, it is alive with activity

Beautiful but super crowded. You feel like you are stuck in someone’s pocket. You wanna take a picture you have 1000 people in front of you, either blocking the view or waiting to take the same picture. The food (mainly pastries and ice cream) around there was expensive and not very good quality. The boulevard looks nice if you get there super early in the morning, like 6am to see it empty.

Main Street of Old Town, Dubrovnik . Full of people at all times. The souvenirs there are selling here are at high price, understandable.

Stradun (Placa) – The Shining Heartbeat of Dubrovnik This dazzling limestone-paved main street – affectionately called Stradun by locals – is the soul of the Old Town and one of the most beautiful pedestrian promenades in Europe. Polished smooth by centuries of footsteps, it gleams like marble under the sun and turns into a mirror of lights at night. Stretching 300 perfect metres from Pile Gate to Ploče Gate, it’s framed by uniform baroque façades rebuilt after the 1667 earthquake, with charming little side alleys hiding staircases, fountains, and hidden cafés. Morning coffee on the shiny stones, the sound of the city bell tower marking the hour, evening passeggiata when everyone strolls arm-in-arm, and the magical glow after dark when the crowds thin and the street feels like yours alone – every moment here is pure Dubrovnik romance. Grab a gelato, sit on the steps of Orlando’s Column or by Onofrio’s Fountain, and watch the world go by. Whether it’s your first visit or your hundredth, walking the Stradun never gets old. The most iconic street in the Adriatic…

The main street in the Old Town of Dubrovnik which it starts as soon as you enter through the Pile Gate to the harbour.

A clean and tidy main esplanade through the old town. Lots of space to move around and and many side streets to explore with restaurants and bars wherever you look. The floor stones can be a bit slippery when its been raining, but have a lovely shine to them and incredibly well preserved and maintained. No vehicles allowed so a great place to walk around in peace and enjoy the town. The esplanade runs from the Pule gate to the port to the east.

Stradun is the main street in the Old Town - it connects Pile Gate to the Old Town's harbor, effectively dividing into northern and southern sections. Stradun is lined with shops, cafes, restaurants, and historical attractions, making it a popular spot for both locals and tourists

Absolutely loved the hike up here! If taking a tour, cable car or other method up you might feel differently. There is only so much to do and see but the views are amazing. The war museum is sobering but worthwhile if you and interested in taking a deeper dive into Croatia.

Amazing views! Definitely a must-have while visiting Dubrovnik. You can get there with 3 different ways - cable car (19€ one way (with the 2€ fee that they don't show at first) or 32€ return ticket) or by an Uber (it was 22€ for us at Sunset, so just 11€ per person - more suitable option) or you can walk there - it's not hard, but it's gonna take you like 2 hours (according to Google Maps).

One of the best places in the world to watch the sunset. You can either drive to there by a car or using the cable car which you will need to pay for. Definitely a place to visit during sunset hour when in Dubrovnik. A 10-15minute drive from the Old Town. Beautiful sunset views and views on the different islands and Dubrovnik. Highly recommended

I recommend hiking Srđ for sunset! Incredible views and great adventure. The hike itself is not very demanding for young people, but keep in mind to stay hydrated. Theres also cable car available, but for fullest experience i strongly insist on doing the hike yourself.

Amazing views, fun and easy hike

I recommend hiking if you can start early enough in morning before sun & humidity are too intense. It's easier to get dropped off than find limited parking on a busy road. Amazing views and museum at the top.

A 400m high hilltop with amazing views down to Dubrovik, to Lokrum and the Adriatic sea. Easily reachable with the cable car, the hilltop offers alongside the amazing views a smallish fort built by the French during Napoleons rule (with a museum inside) and a huge stone cross. The museum tells the history of the siege of Dubrovnik during Yugoslavia's breakup wars when heavy fighting took place in and around the mountain.

We visited Dubrovnik a couple of times over the past few years while on a cruise in the Mediterranean. We love these ancient towns with the beautiful structures and rich history. We found plenty of places to stop for coffee and food. Everyone was very nice and not too crowded with tourists.

Really glad we hadn’t paid €8 pp to go into the monastery, as we were in there 15 minutes tops. It is included in the Dubrovnik Pass though, so we did this late afternoon and then the walls the following morning, as the Pass is 24hr from first activation. There is very little to see, though the ancient books on display are interesting. There is still a modern day pharmacy at the entrance to the building.

If you have the Dubrovnik pass, why not pop into and have a look. The oldest pharmacy is before the entrance, you can go into the pharmacy and buy something, it’s not cheap, it’s pricey, only the tourists will pay I think, I am one of them. No photo inside the pharmacy. In Franciscan Church and Monastery, you can take as many photos as you like, but not in the museum. Keep you camera and photo away. Be a sensible person. It’s also very busy during the day with groups and tourists. Try to visit in the early morning hours or later in the afternoon if you would like to visit more freely.

Franciscan Church and Monastery - Quiet Beauty, Powerful Reminder RIght inside Pile Gate, this 14th-century gem is both a peaceful haven and a moving testament to Dubrovnik's resilience. The gorgeous cloister with its orange trees and ancient fountain is pure serenity, and the 1317 pharmacy is one of the oldest in Europe. But look closer: the walls still bear shrapnel and bullet holes from the brutal Serbian/Yugoslav army attack on December 6, 1991 (preserved shell fragments and impact craters are displayed inside). Seeing the damage up close, then stepping into the calm courtyard, hits hard--beauty and healing rising from the ashes of war. €5 entry is worth every cent for the history, the silence, and the stunning October light filtering through the arches. A must-visit in Stari Grad.

If you have the Dubrovnik pass just go to this one and not the Franciscan monastery (smaller and cost 4 euros even with the pass, less people though). You can see the Franciscan monks about the church and monastery which I found quite interesting. There’s also a working pharmacy here which was very useful.

Consists of a friary, a church, a library, and a pharmacy. Built in 1317. The Pieta carved above the portal is said to be from 1498. The library (built in the 17th century) contains over 20,000 books. The pharmacy dates from 1317 and is the oldest still-functioning pharmacy in Europe and the third oldest in the world.

It’s included in the Dubrovnik pass, if you have one make your way in. Beautiful place to take some photos

A former Dominican monastery, now open to all visitors. There is not much to see. You can walk through the cloister and the small inner courtyard and visit the small museum. There are many cult objects and gold jewelry, some old books, paintings. It is beautiful, but not out of the ordinary. The air is cooler as if under the arches of the cloister. But it is worth visiting. You need about 30 minutes maximum for the visit.

The Dominican monastery seemed to be deserted by tourists which was really nice as we walked around and had the place to ourselves. The only downside is the cost, as the monastery is not included within the Dubrovnik city pass so I had to pay an additional €4. There is also no English explanation inside and the explanatory leaflets were not available in English which was a shame

The Dominican Monastery is a must-visit for history and art enthusiasts exploring Dubrovnik. Its striking Gothic architecture, particularly the cloister, is a masterpiece of medieval design. The museum within houses a treasure trove of religious artifacts, including paintings and sculptures that offer a glimpse into the city's rich spiritual heritage. While the monastery's exterior may be austere, its interior is a serene and inspiring space. Take your time to appreciate the intricate details and the peaceful ambiance.

Gorgeous monastery that's undergoing renovations/ restoration (as of this review). Entry fee is small compared to others, but the Dubrovnik Pass only saves you 1 euro.

Pretty courtyard. Crowded with cruise ship passengers. Church is under renovation. Cost has increased to €5.

The Dominican monastery complex is located near the Ploce Gate and is an excellent opportunity for those who want to enjoy a cultural visit to Dubrovnik.

A beautiful early 14th century monastery tucked away near Dubrovnik’s east gate. When I visited (early May) there were hardly any visitors, I think in part because of the nominal fee for entry (the excellent DubrovnikPass only grants a slight discount). However, that fee is well worth the price of entry. This monastery, at least in my opinion, is even more captivating than the also excellent Franciscan monastery that can be found on Stradun. Its cloister is beautiful and well-maintained, and has seating that allows for a moment to take in the view. In the monastery’s library is a collection of fine works, greatest of all being a painting by Titian depicting Mary Magdalene and St. Blaise. Also attached to the monastery is a church, which was still undergoing repair as of May 2024 and was not open to the public. Highly recommended to anyone interested in medieval history, art, or even just a brief respite from the crowds!

The Dubrovnik Old Town Port is a picturesque and lively hub that perfectly complements the city’s historic charm. Surrounded by ancient stone walls, the port offers stunning views of the crystal-clear Adriatic Sea and the city’s iconic red rooftops. It’s a bustling spot with ferries, private boats, and yachts coming and going. Visitors can enjoy a leisurely stroll along the harbor, relax at waterfront cafés, or take boat trips to nearby islands. With its vibrant atmosphere and scenic beauty, it’s a must-see when exploring Dubrovnik.

The only words I can use to describe what has happened here are archeological travesty. Basically it is my view that it has been an incorrect decision to jetwash out the many layers of old sealant around the fortresses original stonework. Then to have re-sealed the stonework with plain concrete, worse still it looks over concreted around the stones so some parts of the fortress now look like a flat concrete blob. The situation gets even worse still, as there also seems to be a concrete wash either deliberately or a consequence of the over concreting on some of the original stone work. The likely consequence of this will be that moisture will become trapped in the stonework & damp will be held within the walls & the structure will start to decay from within over time!! I have enclosed some photos to illustrate my findings. As I have mentioned, asthetically the structure now looks like a concrete block, some of the natural colour of the stonework (mainly brown) is gone in places. As is some of the original texture of the old stonework.

Mighty walls and artillery batteries, now the site of a nice promenade and even a quiet swimming spot on the outside of the harbour. The beauty of Dubrovnik historical centre is that it is very compact, every feature is very close to the other, so that you can walk from this point to the up-hill terraces and walls in just a few minutes.

Great views from the wall. 40 eur entrance and only 1 round allowed. Come for sunset around 17 pm! Less folks and sunset views!

Allows you to see a different view of the city. Some game of thrones scenes were filmed here as well. Once you buy the ticket for the city walls the entrance for the St Ivana Fort is included! Do not buy twice!

the place where the TV series Game of Thrones took place this is a must visit ! 🇭🇷❤️🥰🫶🏻

It’s on the city walls walk, but it’s under construction when we visited on Friday 29th August 2025. We only can walk pass it.

A small monastery by the sea front. It has a beautiful organ, and one stained glass window. Many of its features are when from when it was built in 1484 but several modifications were carried out in the period from 18th and 20th century. There are several paintings in the church and the altar painting of Dubrovnik painter Bozidar Vlatkovic in the 15th century.

nice to visit this but not so impressive. There were cats inside and you can smell their poos when u climb in the Pipe organ area.

calm and quiet place. meditation

(Translated by Google) A wonderful religious building right on the coast. The monastery was founded in 1484 and was built during the 15th and 16th centuries. century. Significant it experienced changes from the 18th to the 20th century. Complex with the church in the eastern wing and the garden in the north.

(Translated by Google) This monastery with church and beautiful courtyard is located at the end of the street as you enter Cavtat. It dates from somewhere between the 15 and 16 centuries. It was a Franciscan monastery. Concerts are given in the courtyard during the summer period. There is an important painting above the altar from 1909 by Vlaho Bukovac. It is a kind of wide angle painting of the center of Cavtat. The church inside is in need of some shelter due to falling paint, etc.... The rear part of the monastery is rented out to holidaymakers.

The Cathedral of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary, located in Dubrovnik, is a noteworthy attraction that offers visitors a glimpse into the city's religious and architectural heritage. While it may not be the most awe-inspiring cathedral I've visited, it certainly holds its own charm and historical significance. The Baroque architecture of the cathedral is elegant, with a beautifully crafted facade and an impressive interior adorned with intricate altars and lovely artwork. The treasury, which houses a collection of religious relics and artifacts, is particularly interesting for those who appreciate history and art. However, the experience can be somewhat underwhelming compared to other grand European cathedrals. The interior, though beautiful, is relatively small and may not captivate those seeking a more majestic or elaborate setting. Additionally, during peak tourist seasons, the cathedral can become quite crowded, detracting from the overall experience. Overall, the Cathedral of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary is worth a visit if you're exploring Dubrovnik's Old Town, especially if you have an interest in religious architecture and history. It's a pleasant stop, but perhaps not a standout in a city full of remarkable sights.

The cathedral is truly one of Dubrovnik's most charming spectacles. The church is quite beautiful, and open for tours 24/7, unless mass is in session. Confessions are some of the best parts od this church, because of a few priests' ability to speak English and Croatian. The church can be quite busy during services, so make sure to arrive 10 minutes before a service.

Dubrovnik Cathedral - Baroque Elegance and Treasured Relics Standing proudly at the end of Stradun where the grand Poljana Luza opens up, this luminous 18th-century barroque cathedral (Cathedral of the Assumption of the Vigin Mary) is the spiritual heart of Stari Grad. Rebuilt after the desvastating 1667 earthquake on the site of a much older Byzantine basilica (some say founded by Richard the Lionheart), its soaring dome and soft golden interior glow like a jewel box. Don't miss the exquisite main altar with Titian's polyptych masterpiece The Assumption, the glittering treasury filled with priceless gold and silver reliquaries (including the skull of St. Blaise encased in a jewel-encrusted crown), and the hauntingly beautiful modern stained-glass windows. The cool marble floors and gentle light in the late afternoon are pure serenity after the bustle of the streets. Climb the small steps to the treasury for one of the finest sacred art collections of the Adriatic. Free entry to the cathedral, small fee for the treasury. A peaceful, breathtaking must-visit.

A free to visit work of art. Originally built during the 12th Century, it was largely destroyed during the earthquake of 1667. It was rebuilt in Roman Baroque style. Reconstruction began in 1673 and it was completed four decades later in 1713. Some beautiful paintings in particular look out for the Triptych of the "Assumption of Mary" by Titian, above the main altar.

The Cathedral of the Assumption of Virgin Mary is a must see if you are visiting Dubrovnik. It was built between 1671 and 1773 but it was destroyed in 1667 by an earthquake. The medieval church is also is reffered to as Byzantine Basilicca.The cathedral is in Baroque design and they have one amazing beautiful organ.

Beautiful church with interesting artwork and sculptures. Also very peaceful and people respect that it’s a church which is nice. Recommend a visit here and donation to the church aswell. 🇿🇦

I attended mass at this beautiful church. Although it was in Croatian, the rituals were traditionally Catholic & I prayed in English silently. The altar displays a painting by Titian of the Assumption. Magnificent work! Visit the reliquary - incredible relics of St. Blaise & other saints. Tickets to enter at €4.00.

Pleasant, conveniently located restaurant with nicely prepared food, and okay prices given tourist locale. We ate lunch here, the mussels buzaru style were fresh and nicely prepared and came with bread, the seafood tagliatelle had nice squid, mussels, and tiny shrimp in a tasty red sauce. They did not have draft beer despite that being shown on the menu, a tiny bit disappointing, but the bottled beer Vukovarsko was good. Also had a glass of local white wine. Service was nothing special, pleasant enough, but did not really like the nice waiter pushing me to tip at payment time, so that backfired for him, as I understand it tips are only for exceptionally good service here in Croatia? Total bill 45 euro for two.

My wife and I we were quite hungry after long travel, and we were neither during the lunch or the dinner as somewhere between it but still the chef was kind enough to make us pasta which is not made during the hour that we visited. The pasta was vegetarian without any meat and it was excellent. I am pretty sure the pizza would have been tasted the same as well. The pasta was really very delicious and it was the best I have ever had. The place was not crowded as well, and the orders were delivered really fast.

We had a great experience at Lazareti, just a short walk from Plaža Banje beach. The atmosphere was super relaxed and welcoming, perfect after a day by the sea. We ordered the vegetarian pizza, and it was absolutely amazing—fresh ingredients, great crust, and full of flavor. Plus, it was very reasonably priced, which was a pleasant surprise considering the location. Definitely recommend if you’re in Dubrovnik and looking for a tasty, budget-friendly meal!

We had lunch here today. The mussels, salad, and seafood platter were very tasty, and the service was excellent. We also tried a homemade dessert, which was delicious. We were happy with our visit and would recommend this place.

Another excellent Croatian restaurant with excellent food and service. About 100 meters east of Ploče Gate . I had the mussels and Tagliatelle with seafood and my daughter had Šporki makaruli which were all perfectly prepared and very tasty.

Very nice, reasonably cost dinner. Margherita pizza, Quattro Formaggio pizza, and Greek salads fed four of us well (with leftovers!).

Hidden gem right outside the Old Town! The prices were so good and the food was amazing! Our waiters, especially Damir, were very kind and helpful. Would totally recommend for dinner in the city!

Mateea was an amazing host — friendly, knowledgeable, and running a lovely family winery. We tasted Chardonnay, Malvasia, Cabernet, Zinfandel, and a delicious rosé blend. The wines were excellent, and the olive oil was outstanding! The atmosphere was quiet, cozy, and truly special. Highly recommended!

I cannot recommend this experience highly enough. My wife and I enjoyed a private tour of this small family-run winery. Matea, one of the owners along with her brother, gave us a brief history of the winery and the area. We enjoyed 5 (generous helpings) of their own wines from the Rose, Chardonnay, Malvasia, Botarus (Their own blend) and their flagship Cabernet Sauvignon. Each wine was accompanied by homemade cheeses, bread and cured meat, all created at the site. It was informative but also very interesting and enjoyable. The amazing setting in this valley with views of the Croatian mountains and beside the vines really made this a spectacular day for us. We even had an opportunity to walk amongst the vines and see all of the different grapes used to make these beautiful wines. We then finished the day with 5 different homemade liqueurs to round the visit off nicely. There is a small shop where we purchased a few bottles to take home with us and it was great that there was no pressure to do so. We would recommend this to anyone visiting Cavtat or Dubrovnik (40mins in a cab) and would return in a heartbeat. Thank you again to Matea and the whole family.

We had an amazing time here, the history of the winery and the family were shared as part of the total experience. Amazing wines, all pared with beautiful food from the property and Grandma's cheeses were the best, highly recommend

Went for our first ever wine tasting during our honeymoon. Not sure what I was expecting but they exceeded it. The atmosphere was cozy, and Matea was very knowledgeable. It’s very obvious that this family cares deeply about the consumers’ experience, and it’s not just a ploy to get you to buy their wine. They also provide homemade bread and cheese and smoked meats (grandma’s cream cheese was 12/10). That being said, we bought 2 bottles to bring back, because it was the smoothest wine we’ve ever tasted. We will definitely visit again someday

A family owned and operated boutique winery since the 1400’s. The owners made this the best winery tasting experience we have had!

Lovely place. A must visit place. We are glad that it is part of our Be My Guess experience with our Trafalgar tour.

We had the most wonderful experience at Winery Botaro during our visit to Dubrovnik. I went with my mother-in-law and father, and from the moment we arrived, we were welcomed with the warmth of true Croatian hospitality! Each glass revealed layers of aroma and flavor, beautifully balanced and reflective of the region. This visit was easily one of the highlights of our trip. If you’re in Dubrovnik and love wine, do not miss Winery Botaro! 🍇

Cute museum with a lovely garden. However we got locked in when there was 10 minutes left to the closing time. No one was left at the museum. We were about to call the police but luckily we managed to climb over the fence and get out. Wouldn't come back

I love visiting this museum. I come here whenever I can. It is a small treasure chest of artefacts. The view is magnificent, too.

What a gem, the staff were just amazing as was all the history.

Interesting museum with expositions ranging from history of the country to traditional costumes, music instruments and tools. It’s impressive that the rooms of the former family who lived there are preserved and you can feel a touch of old times. The absence of signs “Don’t touch” were also a pleasant surprise. Outside is a nice garden with a lonely lovely bench overlooking the bay. We visited it for free in the Museum day but I’d gladly pay 3€ for it.

I don’t recommend the museum except that there are no toilets there, and you can’t take pictures, they charge 3 euros each, besides all this, they also work there and I have never seen such an attitude towards visitors in any country in the world!

Great little museum of local history with a peaceful garden and great view! Wonderful guide also very welcoming.

There's a surprising amount to see in here from various periods of history, and you'll learn a lot about the town and the area. The staff are extremely knowledgeable and helpful and speak enough English to explain things to non-native speakers :)

Beautiful view

Not open 24 hours a day! Closed on the Sunday we visited but it was a nice walk.

Cool spot. Keep walking farther to the helicopter pad. U have to slide through fence to get up there but a great view

there are views, wind, sun and peace and quiet

a calm and cozy place. for reflection and recovery

Nice seaview

Very beautiful view !

Kind of nice to hike solo with no tourist around !

Short 30 mins trail around Hotel Croatia Cavtat to the old town. Sunset views are amazing here. Would have been better if there were clearer signs of the trail. For hotel guests, trail starts from level 1 of the hotel. Walk pass a small outdoor table tennis and children’s playground and enter a more rocky path which marks the start of the trail.

Lovely little walk that almost everybody can manage. Also kids.

A really lovely headland walk that takes only about forty minutes. Beautiful clear waters and views you will love. The section at the hotel is currently closed so cut across the path by the playground to return to Cavtat

Lovely walk, mostly in shade. A few steps at the head of the peninsula then a steady incline heading back on the West side. At the end of the path, walk through the hotel grounds, enter the hotel and take the lift up to reception. Leave the hotel and continue your walk back into Cavtat.

Nice walk, beautiful sceneries

Nice empty trail around the headland.

The best boat trip I’ve been on, visiting the most incredible spots. So much free time given at each to explore. Genuinely would not miss this! Boat is gorgeous too, you can sunbath, swim, whatever! Drinks on board too. Very friendly hosts. Life jackets and snorkels provided if you want them.

Amazing tour , such a fun time seeing the beautiful spots of Dubrovnik. Caves were stunning and the water was as clear as the sky. Filip was our skipper , he was the best skipper we could ask for. Great sense of humor and felt very safe with his sailing.

This experience was amazing! The crew took care of us the whole time. The blue cave and Sunj Beach was amazing and beautiful. It was all around a worthwhile trip. The waters are so clear and blue you can see so much. Rocio was great too and interacted with us and my daughter a lot to make the trip better.

Amazing trip ^_^ had plenty of time to swim and dive both spots and time to have food at the beach ^_^never felt rushed at all, it was very peaceful and the staff were super chilled and helpful definitely recommend:D Marin raptor

Drago and Marian were the absolute best hosts!! We were visiting from the U.S. and they made us feel right at home! The boat was very comfortable and such an easy ride to the caves! They helped us navigate the caves and gave us all the supplies we needed to enjoy the day! 10/10 will definitely book next time we’re in Dubrovnik!

10/10 would do again this was the best! i went solo and it was so worth it! i made a bunch of new friends got to see the amazing caves and explore Koločep. amazing guide and amazing group

Great boat tour with nice crew. The caves are a bit scary but a lot of fun and pretty. We did it from 14-18 and it wasnt too busy at the caves. They also bring u to an island with sandy beaches and some nice drinks. Would recommend !!

I went here as a part of blue cave tour. Its a short passover, we went inside this tunnel for a bit and then came back.

I went here as a part of blue cave tour. Its a short passover, we went inside this tunnel for a bit and then came back. A submarine bunker from the wars this bunker has history during the world war II the navy has hidden their submarine here which is not visible for the enemy airforce. Similarly they had 2-3 bunkers near by. The locals had a famous line JAMES WHERE ARE YOU. As the movie james bond has shot here for a scene. Must visit.

It’s truly fascinating to see these old submarine tunnels from the inside during the boat tour. They’ve been preserved just as they were decades ago, and I totally recommend experiencing it. Originally used by the Yugoslavian army during World War II, these tunnels were cleverly hidden from view to avoid detection by enemies.

The place is amazing! Road is very tricky, we had to leave our car around 500 meters away from it, and the last 100 meters are bushes and wet stones, but definitely worth checking it out. We found a massive abandoned boat inside, it's very creepy and really great.

The submarine tunnel is impressive to see, and is often included in the Kotor bay boat tour. HOWEVER, locals claim a scene of the James Bond movie "Casino Royale" was shot here, but there is absolutely no proof of this. The tourist boats even play the James Bond theme when inside the tunnel with a short audio track in English, but this is all made up. If I hadn't looked it up, I would have believed it.

Actually very nice to see, we drove nearby and walked there. Really cool!

A bit neglected and far away from everything but wort the trip if you want to get the idea of how strong former Yugoslavia was! Should be included in some tour guides maybe by boat. If not feel free to visit on your own.

The sunset kayak trip was beautiful and peaceful. We recommend Cavtat, has fewer people than in the old town. Our instructor arrived on time, explained everything clearly, and made us feel confident. He showed us the right technique and shared useful tips. He also took some nice photos of us. We really enjoyed it and highly recommend this experience!

Brilliant experience of sea kayaking with Mario at sunset. Three novices ranging from 14-50! Mario took the time to reassure us he could help us if we got too tired & waited patiently as we paddled away. I took my camera in a waterproof pouch but didn't need to bother & wish I hadn't as it was more hassle than it was worth - Mario sent me over 60 photos after we'd finished. Definitely a highlight of the holiday & would highly recommend just be prepared for a little hard work to paddle round the island 😊

Three hours of kayaking the beautiful waters of Cavtat with Mario = years of pleasant memories. While we enjoyed a leisurely paddle around the peninsula for a view of Old Town from the water, Mario took pictures and told us about a surprising number of features we'd never have noticed on our own. I'm glad we made this excursion on our first day in Cavtat. The paddling was delightful and Mario generously responded to questions about everything from water taxis to Croatian history. What a great way to meet Cavtat. Thank you, Mario!

We got the kayaks from a lovely lady and her daughter who were both super friendly and informative! The sea area nearby is so beautiful and peaceful (lots of pretty fish!) - It's a great value, family-run alternative to busier Dubrovnik companies would 100% recommend

Had a fantastic time with Mario. Booked the sunset tour. My wife and I were the only ones in the group so we got a private tour! We were a little worried as storm clouds were over the mountains and there were a couple rumbles but Mario reassured us with his local knowledge that everything would be fine and he was absolutely right. Stopped off at an island and had time to explore and then looped round to watch the sunset. Mario was fantastic, gave us some local history but also gave us space and let us enjoy the sunset which was unreal. Would highly recommend.

Really enjoyed our trip with Mario. Double kayak trip at a good pace. Mario shared his local knowledge and experiences of the chequered history of the area. We had a stop at a nearby island, the restaurant there was closed for the season so we were able to explore and if you wished there was the opportunity to have a swim. Lifejackets, dry bags and a waterproof tub for your phones are provided. Excellent trip.

What a super way to end the day in Cavtat. Bobbing about watching the sun set over The Adriatic. Mario is a knowledgeable local guide who will take you around the bay, we stopped off at a small beach to swim and snorkel and then just lazed about in our kayak watching yet another wonderful Croatian sunset.

Dubrovnik is a beautiful coastal city with fantastic views. Although it is very crowded with tourists, the Adriatic sea and the rich history of the place (not to mention the game of thrones filming locations !) make up for it. It is definitely to be put on one's bucket list !! And fyi, when you do go, instead of taking the cable car up to get a panoramic picture (which is an extremely short cable car ride and quite expensive) take one of the the car tours from the tour operators just outside Pile gate. Not only is this more reasonably priced, it takes you to two view points above the old city for spectacular views and drives you around the rest of Dubrovnik including a visit to River Ombla (one of the shortest rivers in the world !!). Also, the drivers are super nice and tell you a lot about Dubrovnik's history !! It is well worth doing this !

rip off, and fake. buy a guide and do it your self

I worked with Ivan before completing my booking and he completely provided everything I requested. I was a bit picky too having a few extra needs, and he booked me into a hotel that provided the space I needed. I was separated from the group in fact but it worked out flawlessly. The paddling we did daily was perfect for all of us, we all had some experience at different levels. Our guide Dom catered to all our needs with a smile, I had a hard time carrying the boat and he’d at times transport it for me. (Before and after our paddles mostly). Every day we a different scenery and varied experiences, swimming in a cave, visiting a botanical garden, and even cycling after paddling to the island. The food was great, every meal cooked to perfection. It was a great week island hopping and I’d highly recommend it.

I think positive feedback is always useful, especially when much of the focus is often on how expensive Dubrovnik and the surrounding area is (I don't disagree with this, but we've managed to find affordable places). Yesterday, we went on a full day kayaking tour round Lopud with Adriatic Kayak Tours. We took the ferry from Koločep, where we are staying, and met our guide Dom in Lopud. We were kitted out and given a selection of sea kayaks to try. Myself and my husband are keen sea kayakers at home so we're a bit more thorough in our choice of kayak, but were pleased to see respected models of kayaks available. Dom was a great guide; calm, friendly, interesting, and, compared to previous Mediterranean experiences, gave a good safety overview before we set off. It was a lovely paddle, with a decent amount of water traffic to negotiate at times, but this did not spoil the trip. Šunj beach was my least favourite part of the day with lots of bathers and various sized boats crammed into a beach that, to be honest, felt nothing special. However, it is the only real option to pull kayaks ashore, rest, and have food (we brought our own lunch. The restaurant was apparently very expensive). We stopped again on a tiny pebble beach and had a wonderful snorkel and swim, before the final paddle back into Lopud. In an expensive place, our full day trip was only €70 per person. Excellent value. We would pay the same, or more in GBP at home. I would recommend Adriatic Kayak Tours. Real sea kayaks (not sit-on-tops), an excellent guide, beautiful scenery, and a good company to communicate with. P.S. we both now want P&H Leos to add to our fleet at home!

We had an amazing experience with Ivan, hiring kayaks for 3 days to self tour around the Croatian islands. Ivan helped us do some mapping & finding spots to stay and visit along the way. His experience and equipment was all amazing and we had no problems at all. Thank you!

Amazing day trip from Lopud with guide Dom. He shared his extensive knowledge of local history (over the last 1000 years) paired with fabulous guiding and clear instructions. Good quality sea kayaks (not sit upon kayaks) that are safe for exploring the nearby islands. Wonderful excursion with only 2 guests on a gorgeous day in September. We stopped at a sea cave, snorkeled, had amazing lunch, and back to Lopud in time for the last ferry. Highly recommend this tour. Wish we could stay for a multi day trip.

This was my second trip with Adriatic Kayaking Tours. I was a little apprehensive about booking for a second time because the first trip (three years ago) had been so spectacular, I thought it would be impossible to live up to that first experience. I did, however, really want my sister to share the experience so we went ahead and booked for a week. It was absolutely the right decision! We had a fabulous time together with my Dad who joined us. This company is run by lovely people who are passionate, professional, friendly, knowledgable and very authentic. I don't have a lot of experience of kayaking but, just like last time, I felt looked after and in safe hands from the moment we arrived. The sleepy island of Lopud was a perfect base for our week with no roads and the warm sea to swim in each morning and evening. A big highlight of the tour for me was the delicious food each day (with freshly-caught Sea Bream being my favourite!). The attention to detail in the planning of these tours provides varied and fulfilling days with kayaking, snorkelling, cliff jumping, cave swimming and bike riding as additional options on the trip. With just the right balance of safety guidance, support, historical knowledge and humour from our guide, Ivan, this trip was just like my first one - truly memorable! One element of these trips is that you join a small group of like-minded people and have the opportunity to make connections and potentially new friends (which I'm happy to say was the case on our trip!) This summer was my Dad's 6th holiday with Adriatic Kayaking Tours (which tells you all you need to know really!). In the 20 years since he first started kayaking, he has gained a lot of experience and, through these tours, he has made friendships which have seen him travel to different parts of the world to meet up with fellow paddlers. If you are wondering about a kayaking holiday but are uncertain in any way, I am confident that you won't regret placing yourself in the capable hands of this team. Whether you already have kayaking experienced or it is your very first time, this tour provides just the right balance of challenge, laid-back adventure, discovery, relaxation and calm within a beautiful landscape and the blue waters of the Adriatic. I will definitely be back again! Thanks to Ivan 1, Ivan 2, Mislav, Tammy and everyone else involved in running Adriatic Kayaking Tours! Thank you for another wonderful trip!

We had a day from Lopud, in kayaks to Sipan. Bike ride to Sipanska Luka. Lunch at Konoba Kod Marka- an excellent food experience, and a bike ride back to Sudurad and paddled back to Lopud. Our guide, Dom, was a great communicator, flexible and very pleasant and made us feel safe on the whole trip!

The best trip ever! Seven nights kayaking from Lopud was unforgettable—beautiful coves, caves, and beaches, and Dom made it all amazing. He’s knowledgeable, fun, and felt like a friend by the end. Highly recommend!

We did a 2hr ride to the river with the horses. It was an amazing experience. The staff was very friendly and helpful. If you are looking for a fun adventure away from the busy city center, I would definitely recommend it!

My wife and I had a fantastic day, the horses were excellent and very well behaved, the scenery on route was absolutely stunning and our guide Tea was amazing, also the driver that picked up up from hotel and then dropped us off again, was an amazing day all round and will definitely go back thanks.

Bio Konavle is set in such beautiful surroundings and with very professional people taking care of it. We went horse-back riding and everything was so well organized (including transfer service and snack meal). My younger daughter, who has never been on a horse-back before, felt confident enough to come out for a trip in the fields just because the setting was so secure.

Beautiful, cozy, joyful, relaxing, and all other words describing good memories people can have while traveling.

Simply put : amazing. The host was wonderful, professional and helpful! I am definitely coming back again.

Amazing time with amazing people, such a fun. Horse riding, horseback riding, and fun, fun, fun...will be back again when in Konavle. Thank you, beautifull people.

My kid loves this place, during kamp!

Beautiful, quiet, and clean beach. We got there through the beach and at the end you have to go up and down to go around some private condos, but at the end you'll find a quiet and not crowded place to rest. Topless is not allowed tho

Nice beach though tricky to walk along and definitely need for aqua shoes.

Breathtaking view!

Not a beach. A collection of rocks near an abandon building. But can see that it provides great view of sunsets, possible nice swim and very few people...

In the past it was a nice and simple place untill somebody tried to build a hotel on the beach. Hotel is not yet finnished and only walls make it even more disguisting!!

Fantastic beach, pristine warm water, shade and sunlight

Top

Loved the elephants and giraffes. Was no toilets before, during, or after... Normally could hold it but the bike has many vibrations on my backside. Overpriced. A good break from Dubrovnik. Hippo was my favorite.

This experience was perfect it was exactly what we expected. The equipment was in great shape and they try to make sure everyone gets a chance to drive that wants a chance to drive. We did this as an excursion through our cruise ship so it was all organized for us ahead of time. There was 14 in our group. We had 2 on each quad and one lead quad from the excursion provider and another was in the middle. Pictures were of the views we had from our first break it was amazing! The ride itself was definitely "off-road" for some lengthy sections. And on pavement and through town on other sections.

Great experience. But this is not a normal city tour its for those who want to see the city from a view point in the mountain

Great trip for a half day out , stunning views and you certainly get the off roading experience. Highly recommend

Good pick up and drop off, great experience driving the Quads through all terrain, great views at the stops, lovely tavern stop to eat and drink, well presented and hosted. Really good excursion.

(Translated by Google) Well marked trail, but difficult to find the starting point (we asked the locals). But it's a great holiday walk for all hikers. A total of 3 hours of walking (there and back) (Original) Dobro označena pot, vendar težko je najti izhodiščno točko (midva sva prašala domačine). Je pa to odličen sprehod na dopustu za vse pohodnike. Skupaj hoje dobre 3 ure (tja in nazaj)

(Translated by Google) Very nice walk (Original) Très belle balade

Steep hike as you would expect. Not well sign posted especially once the trail gets close to the main road at the top. Little to no reception. I would advise using an app with downloadable maps such as komoot for assistance getting up and down

It's 3.5hrs to the top Take 2ltrs water minimum Views are outstanding and the atmosphere so peaceful and quiet

Wonderful views ! Take water with you and good shoes.

A nice hike. Path is mostly rocks so shoes with hard soles would be nice. Took me almost 4 hours overall but this is including a ~40min stop at the restaurant and a detour of ~30min. Be careful not to miss the turn to the right going up to the peak on the second half of the hike.

Absolutely stunning hike but be warned the path is rocky and very narrow at points.

1.5h to the top, not 3.5h like Alan stated. Maybe he ment roundtrip which is accurate. It's a hard and rewarding trail.

Did this hike starting from Obod with my 7yo daughter and 63yo mother, both of whom are fairly regular hillwalkers. Took us 5 hours up and down, including 30 minutes for lunch at the top and a good few water/snack stops en route. Path is well maintained and easy to follow. We were wearing trainers which was just about okay but a light walking shoe would have been better. The final ascent from the western side above Velji Do was quite steep but only took 20 minutes. We descended on the eastern side which was much easier. The restaurant at Velji Do was closed which was slightly disappointing. According to our host, it’s open less and less nowadays so worth checking ahead beforehand. We went in April and it was warm and quite exposed in places so water, snacks and sun cream a must.

A Hidden Gem in the Heart of Cavtat The Shell Museum in Cavtat is a small but incredibly charming and educational place, perfect for a quick yet enriching visit. Despite its modest size, the museum houses an impressive collection of shell specimens from all over the world’s oceans. It’s truly remarkable how many fascinating examples are displayed within such a compact space. A special thanks goes to the lovely lady who runs the museum – her warm welcome, engaging presentation, and willingness to answer every question made the experience even more enjoyable. Her passion and knowledge brought the exhibits to life and added a personal touch that made the visit memorable. Whether you’re exploring solo or with family, this museum offers a peaceful and informative stop. It’s conveniently located right in the center of Cavtat, just a few hundred meters from the main bus station and tourist information center. Highly recommended for anyone looking to learn something new and appreciate the beauty of the sea in a cozy setting!

Loved this museum on my visit yesterday - the woman was really passionate and her energy rubbed off on me. The museum is beautiful, small but so interesting and clean and well presented. There’s a quiz for kids, but I did it and got a free shell!

An incredible Sea Shell Museum with shells hundreds of years old, even an Ammonite from the Jurassic Era, everything is in pristine condition aswell, absolutely must visit if you come by. It's hard to not be in awe when looking at the shells and how old they are. Increadible place, if you ever collected rocks or shells growing up, there's no way you can skip the this❤️ I promise you this one is worth it.

Highly recommend this little museum, if you are interested of natural history, sea and of course, shell's. Staff was helpful and so nice. Family ticket was 14€ Notice that there isn't a toilet.

So pleased I made time to take a look in side this exhibition. This one although small is one of the best I have seen. The shells on display are from many countries around the world and the variety of sizes, shapes and colours is captivating. I spent 30 minutes in there but could have stayed longer if I had the time. Well worth the 7 euros entry fee.

Visiting the shell museum was a highlight of our holiday, as the owner’s knowledge and enthusiasm was so inspiring. A beautiful collection and I love my handmade earrings! P.S. our little green sea urchin made it all the way back to the UK in one piece too!

Arrived just before closing. I was received by a very pleasant young man who turned out to be part of this beautiful family run museum. I love the sea and shells. If you like shells and nature and appreciate others who do you won't be dissappointed. (AC would be a nice addition but apparently not allowed to make changes to the historic building this museum sits in. Ended the experience with a cold drink at the sea side Poseidon Restaurant. Highly recommended !!!

Beautiful path around the coast, many benches to rest

The Karis walking path is a loop that it can start either at the parking place or from the monastery. Is a nice walk as there's the shade from the pine trees, but you have also got the sea breeze from the Adriatic coast. There's couple of bays for swimming or sunbathing but most of them are very rocky. The path is ideal for walking running, cycling or jogging and is flat.

What a spectacular walk! From the beautiful old town and it's churches, shops and museums to the rugged beauty of the coast and don't forget the boats planes changing the landscape regularly. A very easy stroll for young or elderly and you can also take regular breaks at the bars, as we did at the little star bar 🍺

Beautiful and peaceful walk on the edge of the land next to the sea. Takes less than an hour to do if you do a loop, but you will no doubt have to stop to take in the beautiful views and some photos of course.

Loved this walking path, easy and pleasant walk

Listed in some parts as a hike but in reality it is an easy costal walk. Suitable for children and the elderly alike. Plenty of benches along the way if you need a rest. Some decent views but more a walk to kill some time rather than a destination.

Lovely coastal path with some great views, lots of benches and stop of points along the route to sit and soak up the sum or to just relax and pass the time away.

Great place to spend a few hours, has a museum. There is a charge to see this we paid 75 kuna that included a free drink and museum entrance. Also a couple of places to get s bite to eat and a drink

Śmiało but full od info about life and traditions! The stuff is extraordinary helpful!

Stopped by the Konavle County Museum on a Sunday and ended up having one of the best cultural experiences in the area. The museum is small but packed with beautifully preserved folk costumes, tools, and everyday items that tell the story of life in Konavle. The embroidery alone is worth the visit-stunning detail and tradition in every piece. Right next to the museum is the Church of St. Nicholas, and after the morning mass, the square came alive with a local folklore performance. Traditional music, dancing, colorful costumes-it felt authentic and full of life, not touristy at all. Staff were friendly and clearly care about preserving the culture. If you're in the area, especially on a Sunday, don't miss this. It's a perfect mix of historv, tradition, and atmosphere. Highly recommended!

A small but rich museum curated by passionate people. You'll find lots of exquisite traditional embroidery and description of items. There's translation of the artifacts and their ethnographic research in Croatian and English. I was given a great tour with amazing recommendations of the area.

A lovely well kept museum in a nice little village. A good look into the working history of a Croatian farming community.

Small museum with friendly staff member who was genuinely interested in showing us around and explaining the artefacts and engaging with us.

brilliant little place interesting history

Karaman Winery is such a pleasant place! We visited on our last full day in Croatia and absolutely adored the beautiful location, fantastic wine and sweetest host. Thank you for having us.

While looking to spend some time before our flight, we stumbled upon this charming family owned winery, and it turned out to be an absolute gem. Nika and Nikša kindly accommodated a last-minute tasting reservation and welcomed us with warmth and hospitality. The location was serene and picturesque, and the presentation, wines, and accompanying snacks were excellent. Hearing about the vineyard’s history made the experience even more enjoyable and memorable.

A Must-Visit in Dubrovnik! If you’re in Dubrovnik or anywhere nearby, this winery is an absolute must. The family is incredibly welcoming and friendly, the wine is outstanding, and the view is breathtaking. My husband and I had such a beautiful, memorable experience—we can’t recommend it enough!

A well-located place in the Konavle Valley near Dubrovnik Airport: you will discover a welcoming family who will lovingly explain this rich terroir and an exceptional grape variety now found in many parts of the world: but here is the mother land ! A tasting of fine and rare wines. Simply magical.

The owners of this winery were the most genuine sweet people ever. The winery was absolutely beautiful and the wine was SO good. 10/10 recommend this place. So peaceful and relaxing. We had the best afternoon

Winery Malvasija Karaman is a charming, family-run winery nestled in the Dubrovnik region, surrounded by lush vineyards. The visit was made special by the young owner, who warmly welcomed us and passionately shared the history of the vineyard and the winemaking process. 🍇 We tasted both the dry and dessert versions of Malvasija Dubrovačka and were truly impressed by their quality and character. 🥂 The winery’s courtyard is beautiful and peaceful, full of greenery and shaded by local trees — a perfect setting to enjoy exceptional local wine. 🪴

We had the privilege of booking the full tasting and tour at this family owned winery in Konavle. The family operates the vineyards as well as the tasting facility. It is managed with pride and it speaks volumes of this region’s historical struggle to preserve the tradition in light of both natural Nd human forces of destruction. The patriarch was able to create what you see today out of a few remaining vines some several decades ago. Take a look at how they have flourished today. The winery offers two main varieties - dry and sweet malvasija. The sweet version is equivalent to Canadian late harvest wine. Not as sweet as ice wine but sweeter than regular. It is a good finish wine after a hearty meal. We are super thankful to the family for their wonderful hospitality.

A lovely walk round the coast of Cavtat or walk up to the church and graveyard Plenty of places to eat and drink along the way and especially in Cavtat itself Get the number 10 bus from Lapad bus station

The beach it was a bit rocky for my liking, but the water, it was clear and invited. It was very popular with swimmers and sunbathers. There's a restaurant there but also, a small kiosk selling cold drinks and ice creams. I have found the umbrella and sunbeds a bit expensive at 7 euros for a sunbed and 3 euros for an umbrella. There's also a massage place there too. For the showers you need to pay for at 50 cents and you get a coin from the kiosk too.

A bit of a rocky area and sea shoes needed but overall a really nice 👍 little bar here reasonably priced but better to bring your own drinks, food etc and have a nice picnic 🧺

Nice beach with some easy access to water. You can rent long chairs but also just lie on the stone. There is a nice restaurant nearby and an ice cream stand/kiosk. There is also small cabin for changing the clothes. No shower though. The sun is mostly on the other side so there is a lot of shade.

If you don’t mind the rocks and concrete it is an amazing spot, the water wasn’t cold in July/August and you can find some spots to sunbath. Just make sure to take your water shoes as this beach is full of urchin

Visited here a couple of times during our stay in Cavtat. Lovely clear water for swimming and snorkeling in. No sand all pebbles and concrete which is ok if you don't like sand. Sun beds and umbrellas to hire, cheaper than some places, more expensive than others. Great restaurant with good food and cold beer too.

We looked for a private spot away from the sunbeds. For the sunbed areas, you have to pay. As we stayed there for 1-2 hours, this was not an option for us. The beach itself has big stones and pebbles. Those who are looking for beach sands, won't be happy here. Tip on entering the water: slippers or water shoes make the entrance easier. The water is crystal clear, and with goggles, you can even see small fish. After 5 or 10 metres, the water is getting deep and is full of seagrass. It was a bit scary for my boyfriend who is not a swimming pro. But for me, it was not a problem.

A small old church worth to see near the Ploče gate. It’s got a beautiful entrance door and 2 big bells on the top. There’s a restaurant beside it.

A very small stone church. Beautiful, but not out of the ordinary. I don't think it's a tourist attraction, it doesn't need a stop. You can find it at the end of Prijeko Ulica street, a tourist street, full of small restaurants.

A picturesque church tucked in a side street close to the main town square (Trg od Luza)

(Translated by Google) A small Romanesque church from the 11th century, one of the oldest in Dubrovnik. The interior is very raw and simple. (Original) Niewielki romański kościół z XI wieku, jeden z najstarszych w Dubrowniku. Wnętrze bardzo surowe, proste.

Nice

It is located on Zlatarska ul., a side street next to the Dominican monastery in the direction of Buza Gate. This is a Romanesque church, with a very simple interior.

(Translated by Google) The church appears in many paintings, located at the end of a narrow street. Unfortunately, the view is impossible to recreate due to the pubs located on that street. It's up to your imagination. (Original) Kościół widnieje na wielu obrazach, znajdując się na zakończeniu wąskiej uliczki. Niestety widok nie do odtworzenia z racji knajpek znajdujących się na owej ulicy. Pozostaje wyobraźnia

Crystal-clear water, but there are a lot of people – a typical beach: long, noisy with the sound of crowds, and sunbeds packed side by side. The inflatable attractions for children are great. Payment is cash only, but luckily there’s an ATM right by the beach.

Amazing place to spend the day before going to the airport. You only need 10 min to the airport. 15 euro 2 sunbeds and 1 umbrella so cheap comparing to Dubrovnik. We ate ice cream and chips also reasonable prices. It is very difficult to find parking. We hired pedal boat for 10 euro 30 minutes we had so much fun. It is a beach for families mostly with children. They have public shower 30 cent for 1 minutes, not closed but outdoor. And they have a place to change your clothes as well.

Lovely clean beach, clear water, rocky beach but gets sandy a few meters into the water, €22 for two sun loungers with cushions and a parasol for the day

Stony beach, swimming shoes necessary. Few metres from the shore sand, it gets deep quite quickly so it is pleasant to swim. Clear and clean water, you can watch the fish. In September, the inflatable aquapark disappeared and nothing obstructed the view of Dubrovnik and the towns along the Dubrovnik Bay. Beautiful sunsets and views also in the evening/night.

If you're already in Cavtat, then this beach is probably okay, but otherwise it's not worth going there for this beach. Water is not as clean and it's painful to get in the water each time because of the shap stones. Also, they only accept cash here.

Beautiful beach. Its a public stoney beach with a lot of sunbeds to hire and not alot of room if you don't want a sun bed. However they are so cheap to hire for the day. There are loads of things to do and plenty to eat and drink. The water is crystal clear and makes for a beautiful early morning swim when noone else is around.... With the most beautiful sunsets

Great beach, water is crystal clear. Lots of activities to do such as the amazingly fun aquapark, peddle boats, paddle boarding and just a short walk up the beach to the Epidauram where you can do parasailing, diving, banana boat, jet skiing.
