I visited on a nice sunny day. This outdoor facility is a spartan compound, lots of dogs and only two volunteers. Both were busy, but accessible to my observations and a few questions I had... a few stories about a few of the dogs and even new puppies! There is the genuine love for the animals there. I kept my visit to a little bit over an hour because I did not wish to affect any time constraints on them... the dogs come first. I just wanted to enjoy this day and make a few of the dogs happy with some attention. After my departure, I checked out the Zarkovica website.. needless to say, the homepage floored me. The photo is of the shelter in Winter... with the caption, "The Temporary Home For Over Three Hundred Dogs In Dubrovnik..". I take those few words as part of their mission statement. I hope their success! Every Tripadvisor pic is happy people, happy dogs, sunshine & smiles. I was thinking of all the dogs there.. maybe fortunate in survival but are damn cold in the Winter. The welfare of the dogs depends on the time and care of these volunteers. Give generously, do what you can, volunteer your time, help them.. the dogs, the volunteers will love you for it, & of course you will feel better too & be a much better person for it.

Far and away our favourite vineyard visited. Run by a really friendly husband and wife whose have owned the vineyard for generations. Great spot, great view, great wine and great hosts, basically everything you need. We took the water taxi from Korcula old town and a lovely 25 min walk through the countryside to get there.

We are Dubrovnik’s leading brewery with a craft soul and plans for World domination. Come down to our Brewery, to see first hand how craft beer magic is made and drink some amazing beer straight from the source. Wellcome!!!

Craft beer is still spotty depending on where you are in Europe, but Croatia seems to be embracing the trend, as they have a lot of craft brewers opening up shop. DBC is the first craft brewery in Dubrovnik, and it is conveniently located right across the street from the cruise terminal (literally a 5 minute walk back to the ship). It's a perfect way to end the day after walking the walls and getting some local grub. We showed up right at 4pm when they were to open, and the bartender was a bit late opening up shop (though he knew we were American because we expected them to be open at 4...haha). Their beers are all enjoyable, with the best of the bunch being the special New England style IPA they had on draft (a collab with another local homebrewer, brewed with local citrus). Their lager was also a group favorite. The best beer they had on draft was a barrel aged porter from that same collab brewer. It was excellent! If you're a beer nerd, don't expect world-class offerings. With that said, none of the beer was even remotely disappointing. The bartender was really friendly and informative too. People of Croatia learn English in school, so there wasn't any type of language barrier. The conversation was great, and he even sent us off with a few unexpected complimentary souvenirs from our visit. Such a nice, chill environment to spend an hour or two. We will definitely go back when we return to the area. As a note, they don't have food available but I believe they are OK if you bring food in to enjoy with a beer. Don't quote me on that though.
4. Lokrum Island

Amazing island, with plenty of things to do and discover: botanical garden, Dead Sea, olive groves, beautiful views, with many peacocks and rabbits around, old Benedictine monastery, exhibition and info on Game of Thrones as well. Very nice playground and volleyball/ soccer playgrounds. Don’t forget to bring your swimwear: you have many places to take a refreshing bath on the rocks (and showers as well). We arrived with our sailing boat and moored in the southern bay, there are boats from Dubrovnik harbor departing every now and then to reach the island!

Great walk and around city with fantastic views, be aware that when cruise boats are in it can be very busy, take plenty of water and wear sensible shoes
6. Fort Lovrijenac

Reviewed By LucyFelthouse
Entrance here is included in your ticket if you have walked the city walls. It's a little bit of a trek to get here from the main city, so be aware of that if you have mobility issues, but it's well worth it. You pass stunning scenery on the way (and stuff you'll recognise if you're a Game of Thrones fan), and the fort itself is fascinating and provides amazing views back towards the city and over the bay/sea. Definitely worth checking out.

The Island of MLJET is situated in a remote area that is far South of Croatia and west of Dubrovnik.

Definitely a must to visit, it was really beautiful with lots of places to sit around the lake. The water is clear and the national park is very clean. Take a bike ride around the lakes or hire a canoe, we did both

It’s so easy to feel like you are walking around King’s Landing, the Main Street is beautiful both during the day and at night, early and late are the best times as it gets very very busy. Explore the side streets too, full of cute shops and cafes

Beautiful city to explore the streets and look at architecture or if you are a game of thrones fan a chance to visit the set!! The main downside is the number of tour groups which crowd the streets so get there early or later in the day to avoid the majority.
