Dubrovnik, Croatia Travel Guide

Walled city on the Adriatic

Why visit Dubrovnik

White stone walls, terracotta roofs and the Adriatic’s most cinematic old town — the backdrop that made it famous on screen is real. Walk the city walls at golden hour, take the cable car to Mount Srđ for the panorama, and hop the ferry to Lokrum for a swim. Day trips cover the Elafiti islands, Mostar and Montenegro’s bay.
