Introducing Dubrovnik & Southern Dalmatia
View gallery
Dubrovnik is simply unique; its beauty is bewitching, its setting sublime. Not that it’s a secret, quite the contrary: thousands of visitors walk along its marble streets every day of the year, gazing, gasping and happily snapping away.
The remarkable old town, ringed by mighty defensive walls, is a highlight of any trip to Croatia, capturing the very essence of a medieval Mediterranean fantasy. It’s little wonder that in recent years it’s featured so prominently in the Game of Thrones TV series. View it from Mt Srđ above and you’ll understand why poets have so liberally showered it with epithets over the centuries, Byron’s ‘pearl of the Adriatic’ being the most enduring.
Dubrovnik is also an ideal launching pad for expeditions throughout southern Dalmatia. From the island of Korčula in the northwest to the dreamy plains of Konavle in the southeast, this is a region to be savoured by beach seekers, wine lovers and history buffs alike.
