Tourist info Cavtat
Cavtat is located on the peninsula Rat 15 km south of Dubrovnik and it is the only urban center of Konavle, the southernmost municipality in Croatia. The original city was founded by the Greeks in the 6th century BC under the name of Epidaurus, which was an important Roman colony in this region, however, after coming of the Slavs to this area it lost its importance. During the Dubrovnik Republic, Cavtat was the second most important port, commercial and administrative center after Dubrovnik. Today Cavtat is a popular tourist destination with numerous hotels and private vacation homes that rent rooms and apartments. In addition to holiday by the sea and on the beach, Cavtat offers a handful of other interesting things. Worth seeing is the birth house of Vlaho Bukovac, one of the most famous Croatian painters and the forefather of the Croatian modern painting, the mausoleum of the Racic family, known shipowners from the 19th century and the fortress Sokol City, the largest fortress in the whole Konavle that was used to ward off the Turkish threat over the centuries. Konavle is ideal for lovers of active holidays where you can ride horses, ride an ATV safari, hike and ride a bike which is the best way to become familiar with the tradition and culture of this unique region. The offer of apartments and private accommodation in Cavtat is diverse, so if in doubt book an apartment or room directly with the accommodation owner and you will not regret. Welcome to Cavtat!
