Dubrovnik Travel Guide: City Walls, Stradun and Islands

Short answer: Dubrovnik is located on the Adriatic coast of Croatia, combining a stone port city with the Adriatic through its medieval walls, the Old Town (Stradun), Lokrum island, the Srđ cable car, and boat-island tours.

The Old Town is very walkable, though summer heat and cruise ship crowds will shape your itinerary.

Most travelers split their days between the city walls & Old Town, views & islands, and a beach or sea day. Dubrovnik home page · What is Dubrovnik famous for?

Old Town and City Walls

Walking the City Walls is the absolute highlight of the city. Stradun (the main street), Onofrio's Fountain, Rector's Palace, and the Franciscan Monastery are all right in the historic core. Fort Lovrijenac is a must-see western stop combining great views and history.

Cable Car, Lokrum, and Islands

The Cable Car to Srđ offers sweeping views of the harbor silhouette from above. Lokrum island is perfect for a swimming and nature break, while the Elaphiti islands make for a fantastic day trip by boat.

Quick tip: Walk the city walls early in the morning and save midday for Lokrum or Mount Srđ.

Food and Dining

Seafood and harbor-front restaurants are classic choices, though prices are higher inside the Old Town. Areas near Banje Beach offer great alternatives.

Sample Itinerary

Day 1: City Walls + Stradun + Rector's Palace.

Field Notes
