Dubrovnik which is situated on the Dalmatian coast is known as the 'Pearl of the Adriatic' and it was no surprise when in 1979 it joined the UNESCO list of World Heritage Sites. Although severely damaged by an earthquake in 1667, Dubrovnik still managed to preserve its beautiful Gothic, Renaissance and Baroque churches, monasteries, palaces and fountains. The finest Renaissance highlight is the Sponza Palace which dates from the 16th century and is currently used to house the National Archives.
Dubrovnik has now become Croatia's top sight, and its most visited destination. Some of the available sport amenities for tourists and visitors are cycling, diving, sailing, kayaking, rafting, rock climbing and windsurfing. The annual Summer Festival is a two month-long cultural event with live plays, concerts, and games. The feast of Sveti Vlaho which the locals celebrate every February the third is an event that consists of parades and festivities that last for several days.
One of the main features of Dubrovnik is its walls that run 2 km around the city. The walls varies in thickness from four to six metres thick and it has a system of turrets and towers that were intended to protect it from the mighty Ottoman empire.

A fabulous easy day trip from Dubrovnik is Lokrum Island, lying only 680 metres offshore. From the boat you can enjoy a magnificent view of the walls and the Old Town area. There are no houses, hotels, stores, or restaurants on this island and is really only visited by people for its swimming, sun and idyllic coves that are tucked away among the rocks. Actually the only building on the island is the Benedictine monastery which now unfortunately is in ruins and its Botanical Garden.
The main public beach in Dubrovnik is Banje, which is home to the Eastwest Beach Club hotel. However Lopud Island is famous for having one of the best beaches in the region. Sunj beach is composed of fine, white sand which is extremely rare in Croatia and is backed by lush, green hills. Naturally it gets very busy in the summer months when tourist boats arrive and everyone in the region with a motorised vessel heads out there for a swim.
The climate along the Dubrovnik Region is a typical Mediterranean one, with mild, rainy winters and hot and dry summers. However, it is perhaps distinct from other Mediterranean climates because of the unusual winds and frequency of thunderstorms. The Bura wind blows uncomfortably cold gusts down the Adriatic coast between October and April, and thundery conditions are common all the year round, even in summer, when they interrupt the warm, sunny days.
