Re: Dubrovnik

The Croatian coastline is a magnet for British(and European)boat owners.
A lot are moving from the Med to The Adriatic coast.

I've not been to the city but I have visited(briefly)the surrounding regions.
Not by boat, I must add.

Have a wonderful time.

Re: Dubrovnik

Another worthwhile trip is on the Dubrovnik Cable Car, the 778 meter journey gives you breathtaking views over the Old City. The upper station has two panoramic terraces equipped with binocular...

We have also taken boat trips from the Harbour to a few of the many islands. Lokrum, one of the smaller islands, is a 10 min ride from the harbour and was one of my favourites. The year we visited, they were excavating some Roman ruins. It's a peaceful island (no traffic) with woods to walk through (be careful you don't step on the tortoises wandering around!) peacocks and their young in the wild and in the trees, ruins of a castle and a monestry ..... and two most welcome cafes to enjoy a cooling drink.

One must though ..... use plenty of mossie protection

Re: Dubrovnik

Last year the mozzies ruined my holiday.
A new 'Tiger Mosquito' has just spread to the Adriatic and made our holiday a very nervous affair !

Re: Dubrovnik

Hi Mags, we go in 2 months time and I think we can cope with a 2 hour stroll. Looking forward to it.

Re: Dubrovnik

Somewhere I would like to visit, it does look stunning.
