Croatia oozes several flavours from its neighbouring countries in their local cuisine. You need to try the most delicious and mouthwatering dishes that are on the menu. Black rice or dirty macaroni are two well known specialties. Peka or “Lamb under the bell” is a very popular meal slow-cooked in an old-fashioned way in the “konobas”, the outdoor kitchens. The result is an extremely tender meat and perfect crispy potatoes. Try some traditional puddings to complete your meal. Rozata and Stone Cake are a great bet! Can’t you wait to indulge your palate?

Dubrovnik has much more to offer outside the city walls. The beautiful surroundings and the sea offer great days out to explore other places nearby. One of them is stunning Lokrum.

In the summer, you can snorkel, swim and play some football or volleyball beach at some little pitches along the coast. You will find a couple of little restaurants to grab a bite or a refreshing ice cream for those hot summer days! Explore the island at your own pace!

Dubrovnik is considered as one of the most well preserved medieval cities. The old town is enclosed by sturdy stone walls that used to protect the city between the 11th and 17th centuries. The broad limestone chanel, Placa, is the main street of the old city lined with buildings sharing the same floor plan because of an old decree after a big fire in the 17th century. Admire the cathedral and wander around the alleyways and discover cute little shops, churches, monasteries, sunlit squares and the old port with lots of restaurants where to enjoy the delicious Croatian recipes. There are a few markets and bazaars and in the summer you can enjoy the Summer Festival with outdoor concerts, ballet and opera shows.

The Adriatic Sea does not feature many sandy beaches, just a few ones. The aquamarine colour of the water is what really attracts your attention, with its white and grey pebbles laid on the sea bed. If you want to unwind by the Adriatic Sea, head to Lapad beach, one of the most touristic ones. A bit further around this bay you can enter the water from the rocks.
