Attractions you can do in Dubrovnik
The best time to visit Dubrovnik is during spring (April to June) and autumn (September to October), when the weather is pleasant, and the crowds are smaller. Summer (July to August) is the peak tourist season, with warm temperatures perfect for beachgoers, but it’s also the busiest and most expensive time. Winter (November to March) offers a quieter experience, with cooler weather and fewer crowds, but some attractions and restaurants may have limited hours.
Dubrovnik is compact and best explored on foot, especially in the pedestrian-only Old Town. Public buses efficiently connect the city to surrounding areas and beaches. Taxis and ride-hailing apps like Bolt are available for convenience but can be pricey. For nearby islands like Lokrum or Elafiti, ferries and boat tours are widely available. Renting a bike or scooter is also an option for exploring areas outside the city center.
Wear comfortable shoes, as Dubrovnik’s cobblestone streets and stairs can be challenging. Purchase a Dubrovnik Card for discounts on attractions, public transport, and restaurants. Visit the Old Town early in the morning or late in the afternoon to avoid peak crowds, especially during the cruise ship season. Try local specialties like black risotto, fresh seafood, and Dubrovnik’s signature dessert, rožata. Respect local regulations and avoid swimming near the city walls. Consider taking a Game of Thrones tour if you’re a fan of the series, as Dubrovnik served as King’s Landing in the show.
