Zarkovica Animal Shelter

Reviewed By jdbruk - Shenyang, China

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.

Odysseus Cave

Reviewed By W2335CBmatteor - Turin, Italy

the Experience is worth the walk. The first half can be done either by walk, starting 50 m up from Tommy market along the main road, located right below babino polje. otherwise it can be done by car following an unpaved road that can probably be seen from satellite Google maps. Second half is a walking path, but the last 300–500 m are rough, so you need decent shoes for that. The cave is flooded and deep, so you can swim inside, and the ceiling of the lowest point is roughly 2 m above had while swimming. Inside the cave you can step on ground again to rest. Definitely bring swimming glasses or snorkel, maybe a waterproof camera to catch the reflexes of lights in the cave and underwater. dives from any height are possible from the cliffs around the cave. a hut sells drinks.

Trsteno Arboretum

Reviewed By 516joanneh - Sheffield, United Kingdom

Faded grandeur and a little bit of Game of Thrones memorabilia. Worth a visit to see the dragonflies and the refreshing jetty and turquoise sea.
