If you ask why you should visit Dubrovnik on a yacht charter, we will tell you because it is one of the most beautiful cities in the world.
The magical city of Dubrovnik is a must-see if you visit Croatia for the first time – especially if you are chartering a yacht. With its history, beauty, islands, beaches, and much more, you will immediately fall in love with this magical place.
The Walls of Dubrovnik are a sight to behold from a luxury yacht
Its walls are its trademark, and they are so beautiful and picturesque that they are the main reason why the Game of Thrones series was filmed in Dubrovnik, as well as the sequel to the Star Wars movie.
Legend says that during the building of the Dubrovnik Walls, there was a shortage of stone. It was ordered that everyone who comes to the city must bring one stone according to their physical constitution. From these magnificent Walls, you will be able to see your beautiful yacht and admire her beauty and the beauty of Dubrovnik at the same time.
Medieval streets & buildings have a rich history
As we have already said, Dubrovnik is a city with a very rich history, as well as a city full of monuments, buildings and the remains of medieval heritage. This is one of the main attractions & one of the main reasons why you should visit Dubrovnik while on a yacht charter holiday in Croatia. While being on the main street – Stradun, you can visit Rector’s Palace, The Franciscan Church and Monastery, Sponza Palace, Dominican Monastery, and much more. You can discover so many interesting places in just a few steps.
You can admire the astonishing panorama from mountain Srđ
Using the funicular, ascend Srđ mountain and enjoy one of the most beautiful panoramic views in Europe. The picturesque city of Dubrovnik and its surroundings are a romantic and special place that looks much better when observed from the peak of mount Srđ. Moreover, you can come by car but we recommend it with the cable car. Here, you can have a drink, coffee, or dinner and admire magical Dubrovnik and your yacht – berthed right next to it.
You can dine in the best restaurants in Europe
Dubrovnik is full of astonishing restaurants but the one we like the most is the Michelline-starred restaurant 360 from where you can enjoy your delicious meals but also have a nice view of your magnificent yacht charter.
We recommend you to try Cod Fish with Jerusalem artichoke, dried oyster sauce, and garlic chips or lamb with potato terrine, lamb jus, sheep cheese custard, and pickled beetroot. You will surely enjoy this beautiful place!
There are also Nautika restaurant, Dubravka 1836, Pantarul, Konavoski dvori and much more to explore while chartering a yacht in Dubrovnik.
