Cavtat

Cavtat
- 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. (For
