Walk the old city walls, swim off the rocks and kayak to a sea cave. Here's what Dubrovnik is like with the family, when to go and how long to stay.
The EU is bringing in new entry checks, so check the rules on GOV.UK before you book.
May, June and September have warm sea and fewer crowds. July and August are hot, and the old town fills up when cruise ships are in. Winter is quiet and many places close.
A 2 km walk round the top of the walls. Go first thing to beat the heat and crowds.
Up Mount Srđ for views over the old town and islands.
A short ferry to a wooded island with peacocks, rock pools and a small salt lake.
Paddle around the walls to a hidden beach. Good for children who can swim.
The nearest beach to the old town, with views of the walls.
Fans can find King's Landing all round the old town.
Yes. The old town is car-free and magical, and the sea is clear and calm. There are lots of steps, so leave the pushchair at home.
Four nights covers the city, and a week lets you add islands or a trip to Montenegro.
No, British passport holders can visit for up to 90 days in any 180 without a visa. New EU entry checks are being brought in, so check GOV.UK before you travel.
Inside the walls, yes. Staying in Lapad or Cavtat and eating away from the old town is much cheaper.
Put Dubrovnik on standby with everyone's other ideas. You each spread your points in secret, get one veto, and the draw picks where you go.
