As you glide by on your catamaran cruise, you’ll get a fresh perspective on the city of Dubrovnik. The sight of Dubrovnik’s Old Town from the sea is striking enough, but on this trip you’ll experience it at golden hour, when the last of the sun’s rays cast a rosy glow over the famous stone walls. Jakov, one of our expert local guides, says, ‘The city walls have been a symbol of strength to Dubrovnik’s population for many centuries. The 1,940-metre-long walls have been standing for around 700 years, and in places they are six metres thick – enough to deter the most persistent invaders.’
Switch on your chill out mode as you jump onboard and make the most of the catamaran’s outdoor spaces. Don’t forget, there are a few added bonuses on board, including an open bar, music and nets for lounging over the water for complete relaxation. As soon as you’re settled in, you’ll cast off from Gruž harbour to head south past Dubrovnik old town towards Lokrum island. As you pass by the city’s huge stone walls, imagine all the historic events they have witnessed over the centuries.
While the sun dips lower in the sky, you’ll approach Lokrum's rocky shores at the most magical part of the day, when everything is ablaze with orange and pink hues. Keep an eye out for Lokrum’s famous peacocks which roam across the whole island. Meanwhile, you’ll have free-flowing drinks and music to set the scene on board. Relax on deck as you cruise back to port, watching the changing colours of sunset and the lights begin to twinkle along the coast.
