A unique place on the Adriatic, Cavtat is
an old town on the hills of the forested
Rata peninsula, with new settlements along
the coastline, fully vegetated with Mediterranean
shrubs and eternally green pines and cypress
trees. More than 7 kilometres of shallow
coastline, clean sea, sandy beaches and
coves and beautiful new high and deluxe
category hotels have made Cavtat one of
the most sought after and most visited tourist
places in the Dubrovnik region.
The charm
of this old town comes from the ambience
of buildings from the days of the Dubrovnik
Republic, which built up this town according
to the regulations and plans, giving rise
to the appearance of the old part of Cavtat.
The majority of cultural and historical
monuments belong to the modest and lovely
architecture of the Renaissance period,
with some Gothic traces: the Rector's Palace,
the fortress, the city walls, squares, the
Church of St. Nicholas, the Church of Our
Lady of Cavtat and the Franciscan monastery.
Through the Dubrovnik airport, Cavtat has
excellent connections to the entire world.
In addition to hotels, accommodation is
available in beautiful private homes with
all the comforts of home. There are a large
number of excellent restaurants.
