Before you go

Dubrovnik at a glance

A walled port city on the southern Adriatic coast, once the capital of the Republic of Ragusa. Its Old Town, a UNESCO site since 1979, is ringed by almost 2 km of stone walls. Visitors come for the walls, the marble main street, island trips and the sea, and summer brings heavy cruise crowds.

Known for

  • City walls Gradske zidine

    A walk of about 1.9 km along the top of the walls, past Minčeta Tower and St John's Fortress, with views over the Old Town roofs.

  • Stradun

    The Old Town's main street, running from Pile Gate to the Sponza Palace and the old harbor.

  • Mount Srđ cable car Žičara Srđ

    A cable car from a lower station near the Old Town to the top of Srđ; opened in 1969, it reopened in 2010 after war damage.

  • Lokrum

    A wooded nature reserve island about 600 m offshore, reached by boat from the Old Town harbor, with a monastery, botanical garden and peacocks.

  • Rozata Rožata

    Dubrovnik's caramel custard dessert, similar to crème caramel, found on many local menus.

Getting there

Dubrovnik Airport is about 22 km southeast of the city, near Čilipi. The Platanus airport shuttle leaves shortly after flights land. It stops at Ploče Gate by the Old Town (about 30 min), then Gruž bus station (about 35 min). Libertas public bus lines 11, 27 and 38 also serve the airport daily. By car or taxi it takes about 30 to 35 minutes, up to an hour in summer.

Getting around

The Old Town is explored on foot, with many steps. Libertas city buses link Pile Gate, just outside the walls, with Gruž, Lapad, Babin Kuk and Mokošica.

When to go

May to June and September to October are warm with fewer crowds. July and August are hot and busiest, especially when cruise ships are in. Winters are mild and wet, and the bora wind can blow from October to April.

Local tip

Buy Libertas bus tickets at a kiosk or Libertas sales point before boarding; a ticket bought from the driver costs more. Walk the walls early or late in the day to avoid the heat and cruise groups.
