What to expect

  1. Dubrovnik City Walls
    Pass by
    Travelers will see the impressive seaside face of Dubrovnik’s City Walls, including fortresses, towers, and cliffs rising directly from the sea. This unique view from the boat shows parts of the walls that are not visible from land, offering a new perspective and amazing photo opportunities.
  2. Lovrjenac Fortress
    Pass by
    Admire Fort Lovrijenac from the sea — perched high on a cliff above the waves, this iconic fortress offers dramatic views and a glimpse into Dubrovnik’s defenses. Game of Thrones fans will recognize it as the Red Keep.
  3. Lokrum Island
    Pass by
    During the cruise, travelers will pass by Lokrum Island, a lush green oasis just off Dubrovnik’s coast. From the boat, they’ll enjoy views of the rocky shoreline, pine forests, and historical buildings like the old monastery.
  4. Sveti Jakov Beach
    Pass by
    Admire St. Jacob Beach from the sea, with its clear Adriatic waters, pebbled shore, and the historic monastery rising above the beach. Seen from the boat, the peaceful setting offers a beautiful coastal view with Dubrovnik’s Old Town in the distance.
  5. Banje Beach
    Pass by
    See Banje Beach from the water, just outside Dubrovnik’s Old Town. With its clear Adriatic waters, lively atmosphere, and spectacular view of the city walls and island of Lokrum, it’s one of Dubrovnik’s most recognizable beaches. As the tour continues along Dubrovnik’s eastern coastline, enjoy the beach from a different perspective, with the city walls and Lokrum creating a striking backdrop.
  6. Pass by
    Towards the end of the tour, cruise past Lazareti, the historic quarantine complex on the eastern approach to Dubrovnik’s Old Town. Built to protect the city from the spread of disease, Lazareti reflect Dubrovnik’s early role in developing organized quarantine measures. Watch the historic complex unfold along the shoreline, with the Old Town rising behind it, as you make your way back to the port.
