What To Expect:
Where You Will Travel To:
Fly to Dubrovnik, only two and a half hours from the UK, with several flight options from regional as well as major London airports. Dubrovnik Old Town is just a 20 minute drive, 25 minute bus or 45 minute boat ride away, and all this is easily accessible from where you will stay.
Cavtat has been named as one of Europe’s Top 3 Destinations in 2021 as well as 2019. It is one of the safest places you can visit, life is mostly spent outdoors, safety measures are in place, and there’s so much SPACE!
Only 10 minutes from Dubrovnik airport , and it has that perfect mix of unspolit natural beauty and a harbour where there is a bit more life. Still life is not rushed, it is very simple, and it’s mostly spent around or on the water, which is crystal clear and lovely and warm in October.
