Best things to do in Dubrovnik

1. Visit the Old Town

The evocative Old Town is Dubrovnik’s biggest draw. In fact, the Old Town has caught the eye of several film sets including Star Wars Episode VIII and Game of Thrones as well as several A-listers such as Beyoncé, Roman Abramovich, Sir Robert Moor & Bob Geldof (to name a few). For a guide to the Old Town read the things to do in Dubrovnik’s Old Town section of this post.

2. Take the cable car up Mount Srđ in time for sunset

Zip up to the summit of Mount Srđ and admire views of the Old Town, Adriatic Sea and beyond. On a cloudless day you can see up to 37 miles and no doubt Dubrovnik’s best sunset views can be seen from here. Tickets can be bought directly at the cable car station, an adult round-trip costs 150kn (85 one way). Opening hours change each month as follows: December – January 9am – 4pm; February, March & November 9am – 5pm; April & October 9am – 8pm; May & September 9am – 9pm; June – August 9am – midnight.

One of the best things to do in Dubrovnik is to explore the many caves and hidden beach coves. Be sure to bring a snorkel though to make the most of the clear waters. Kayaks can be hired from several places around the city and prices vary seasonally.

4. Spend a day on Lokrum Island

600 meters from Dubrovnik’s coastline is the nature reserve of Lokrum Island. The unhurried beauty & forest pools attract locals and tourists alike. The small islet is packed with remarkable flora and fauna including olive trees and Cypress, offering a shaded & peaceful respite from the city. There are also botanical gardens and a Benedictine monastery on the island. The island can be reached by kayak or a short 10-minute ferry. There are a few small cafes with basic refreshments, but we recommend taking water and refreshments.

6. Indulge in the delicious local cuisine & remarkable wines

When visiting Dubrovnik there is a plethora of local delights to try including Croatian pizza, candied orange peel, black risotto & locally grown figs, to name a few… Where wine is concerned, Croatia’s fragrant reds are waiting to be tried.

7. Visit the Elaphiti Islands

The Elaphiti Islands, or ‘Elafiti Islands’, are a collection of 13 islands northwest of Dubrovnik including Lopud, Sipan, Kolocep and a number of smaller uninhabited islands. The lush islands were once favoured by Dubrovnik aristocracy due to their peaceful nature and secluded feel. Still today the islands are unspoilt & dotted with small villages and coastal towns with a relaxed pace of life. The island’s are just a taster of the many Croatian Islands.

Sipan (Shee-pan) – The largest of the Elaphiti Islands, Sipan is the only island with cars. Home to verdant valleys and the charming towns of Sipanska Luka and Sudurad.

Lopud – This traffic free island is well loved for its tranquillity. Lopud is home to Sunj beach one of Croatia’s few sandy beaches. Sunj is a 1.2km bay of white sand and gentle waters. There are also numerous cafes and restaurants.

Kolocep (Kolo-chep) – Kolocep is the closest island to Dubrovnik. This tranquil island is a picture of natural beauty with heavily forested landscapes and very few beaches.

It’s easy to visit all three on a day trip from Dubrovnik with a tour or simply hop on one of the frequent ferries. Ferries take between 40-50 minutes and the journey is beautifully scenic. The islands can also be added to Dubrovnik as a twin-centre thanks to a superb selection of hotels. You can find a guide to multi-centre itineraries in Croatia on our website.

Wine tasting in Dubrovnik

Think of world famous wines and you may not think of Croatia. However, out of the world’s 1200 known grape varieties, 100 are grown in Croatia. In fact, Zinfandel was originally from Dalmatia, bought to California by Croatian immigrants.

Plavac Mali is Croatia’s most famous grape. These small dark blue grapes are grown in Dingac & Postup area of Dalmatia. The vineyards are some of the steepest in the world, meaning they receive high sun exposure. Dingac red wines give a taste of berries and herbs with a faint tobacco flavour. Postup is fruitier & light.

Just an hour away from Dubrovnik, several wine tasting tours take place on the Peljesca peninsula where these vineyards are located. Other wines from the region include Posip and Rukatac. You can find out more about Dubrovnik’s wines here.

A brief history of Dubrovnik

Now a UNESCO World Heritage Site & Croatia’s most upmarket destination, Dubrovnik also has a remarkable past.

Prehistoric settlements are evident throughout the city, yet recorded history began with the invasion by the Slavs in the 7th century, before becoming the Republic of Ragusa. The city quickly expanded & developed from there to become the wealthy capital of Ragusa (the Old Town walls were built in the 13th Century). Dubrovnik was even part of the largest merchant naval fleets in the world, leading the city to wealth and in turn sophistication and love of art.

An earthquake in 1667 destroyed much of the city & its inhabitants (although the walls remained), leaving the city vulnerable to Napoleon who entered in 1808 and saw the end of the republic of Ragusa. After Napoleon’s fall in 1815, Dubrovnik became part of Austro-Hungarian Empire until after World War 1, when Dubrovnik became part of Croatia/ Yugoslavia. The devastating shelling by the Serbs during 1991/2 in a siege that lasted 7 months led to considerable damage on the Old Town but was quickly restored to the marvel it is today.

I am sure you will agree there are many wonderful things to do in Dubrovnik. They city has so much to offer, and much of it can be experienced for free.
