Excursion An afternoon in cavtat tour at Dubrovnik

Explore the enchanting seaside Cavtat, now home to summer music festivals, once the ancient Roman city of Epidaurus. Over the years Cavtat has been a favourite destination for sailors and yacht enthusiasts. In fact, Edward VIII and Wallace Simpson came here during their honeymoon. Discover her charms with a short introduction followed by some free time.

Cavtat

From the pier in Dubrovnik, depart by coach for Cavtat, located 45 minutes south along the coast. Upon arrival your accompanying guide offers insight to the area followed by free time to explore on your own and soak up the delightful resort atmosphere. Enjoy a pleasant walk along the beautiful seafront promenade or sip coffee in one of many cafés. Surrounding sites worth a visit include the Baroque church of St. Nikola, the Bogišic's scientific collection, the Vlaho Bukovac Art Gallery, or the Racic Mausoleum, designed by the famous Croatian sculptor Ivan Meštrovic. Cavtat also has several nice beaches nearby if you prefer a day in the sun along the shores of the Adriatic.

Coastal Cruise

At the appointed time, rejoin your guide to begin the return to Dubrovnik by coastal voyage. The scenic cruise by private vessel offers a panoramic view of the southern Croatian coastline en route. Upon arrival in Dubrovnik, accompany the guide through the old city, where a brief walk returns you to the tender pier. If you prefer, you may remain in the city and return on your own later in the day.
