no games & no thrones in Dubrovnik, Croatia

Posted by Richard Norris on

Fun Fact!

There are actually two Dubrovniks:

1. UNESCO World Heritage Site:
The Old City of Dubrovnik, which is entirely self-contained.
2. Greater Dubrovnik:
Where you'll find more affordable seaside accommodation within walking distance of the Old City's perimeter.
The UNESCO World Heritage Site:
My friends and I walked around the Old City quite a bit, which could be a day-long adventure by itself.
We also 'walked the walls,' which gives you a spectacular view of the city and the ocean and can take almost an entire day to soak in the gorgeous Adriatic seaside scenery.

When walking the walls, you may find a hidden wine outpost overlooking the ocean! (Link posted below.) Finding the coves takes some patience, so bring water and sunscreen.

One of the many hidden gems you may find:

Greater Dubrovik:

Once you've explored the Old City, venture into Greater Dubrovnik for a charming treat. Going north, theres a walkable road called branitelja Dubrovnika. The views absolutely breathtaking while the sun is setting. 

If you want a bit of alone time, there's even a private beach called Boninovo near where this photo was taken. Google Maps link here for you.

Bonus!

You're 1 hour away from 2 additional countries:

On my last day in Dubrovnik, my friends rented an automatic car for about 60 Euros/day (incl. insurance) and explored Bosnia and Montenegro. If you're in Dubrovnik for multiple days, this is a great way to capitalize from such a prime location and explore more of the Balkan countries.
