Here is how to spend three amazing days in Dubrovnik, which also includes day trip options as well!

DAY 1 - Explore Old Town 🏰

Wake up nice and early to explore the city walls! I would recommend buying the Dubrovnik Pass for this day, as you will save a ton of money on entry fees!

There are many tours available, so pick one that suits you the most. Once you’re done your tour, head to Banje Beach, or walk a little further to beach Đivovići for a view of Betina Cave.

Instead of the beach, you can also opt for a sea kayaking tour!

After relaxing at the beach, head up Mount Srd for sunset, either via hike or cable car!

DAY 3 - Day Trip! 🚗

That’s right! Time to venture past Croatia! Because of Dubrovnik’s proximity to Montenegro and Bosnia and Herzegovina, visiting either of these places makes for a great day trip!
