Things to do in Dubrovnik

Dubrovnik's old town is enclosed by almost two kilometres of medieval walls, and walking the full circuit is the classic way to see its terracotta rooftops and the sea beyond. Inside, the polished Stradun runs from the Pile Gate to the old port, lined with churches, palaces and stepped side lanes.

Film fans know the city as a backdrop for a famous fantasy series, and the coast around it is made for boat days: the car-free Elaphiti islands, sea caves and swimming coves are all within easy reach.
