By Plane
Cavtat is the most southern town in Croatia,
and the most practical way to reach the town
is by air. Dubrovnik airport is just
two miles away and
well connected.
By Boat
One can enjoy quite a pleasant journey by
ferry from Rijeka to Dubrovnik. It stops at
many islands and ports along the way and
takes about 17 hours. International ferry
services depart from Greece and Italy (Bari
and Ortona, near Pescara).
For the ferry
timetable please visit the
website of
Jadrolinija (the link will open in New
Window and you will still be able to view
the pages of
Cavtatportal.com).
Once in Dubrovnik, walk to the bus station
near the arrival
port. The inexpensive number 10 bus will
take 45 minutes or less
to get to Cavtat (the last stop).
There is also a number of taxies should you
opt for their services instead.
Call the Taxi hotline (20-970) or visit the
pages of
Dubrovnik-Taxi.com
or
Radulovic LTD (Google
Dubrovnik Taxi
for additional taxi firms)´to book ahead
online.
By Car
The Croatian coast offers incredible
sceneries and traveling by car along it may
offer a comfort of stopping wherever and
whenever you so please. Moreover, it's a
great way to explore the region beyond
Cavtat and Dubrovnik.
HAK (Croatian Auto-Club) offers up-to
date road-relevant info.
Keep in mind you might encounter two
challenges: Parking (as most places when
they get crowded) and Tow service
(infamously called 'Spider').
Those are both easily remedied and should
not interfere with your otherwise marvelous
vacation experience.
We advise you to allocate a bit extra time
and arrive early when driving to the heavily
visited sites. Park in the designated
places. It's not unheard of that the cars
parked incorrectly had been towed away. You
can retrieve your vehicle by contacting a
nearby police station or dialing the main
Tow Service Office in Dubrovnik at 331-016
(24/7).
By Train
There is no direct connection to Cavtat or
Dubrovnik by rail. The closest one is in
Ploce were you can take a bus to get to your
destination. It should take you no more than
2 hours or so to get to the Dubrovnik's main
bus station where you can take the number 10
to get to Cavtat. For
the railroad
timetable please visit the
website of
Croatian Railroads
(the link will open in New Window and you
will still be able to view the pages of
Cavtatportal.com).
