To make the most of your stay in southern Dalmatia, we have created a top 10 of unforgettable activities near Dubrovnik and Korčula. Which ones will you try?
Go sea-kayaking in Dubrovnik
Paddle past the ancient city walls towards the small island of Lokrum, where you can visit a Benedictine monastery. Swim and sunbathe in a secluded bay and enjoy an afternoon beach picnic. You can even go on an evening sea-kayaking trip and enjoy the sunset with a glass of wine
Ride the cable car to Mount Srdj
Enjoy the panoramic view over Dubrovnik, the sea and the islands. Have a cup of coffee at the top and visit the war exhibition in the fort, or the splendid Panorama Restaurant. If the weather is not too hot, you can also hike up the mountain, which will take about an hour.
Go wine-tasting in and around Dubrovnik
Take a tour of boutique and family-run vineyards. Our handpicked tour guide holds prestigious, world-renowned sommelier qualifications, and has a penchant for the wines of his homeland, Croatia. On this fun excursion, you’ll learn the distinctive traits of Croatian wines whilst tasting plenty of the products along the way.
Visit the Trsteno Arboretum
If you enjoy wandering around botanical gardens, don’t skip a visit to Trsteno. The gardens are located less than 20km from Dubrovnik and can be reached by car or bus in less than 20min. Game of Thrones fans will probably recognise the filming locations right away, in this 600-year-old green oasis.
